* Considera venir a hacer un master a USA. Un estudiante viene con una visa J-1, que no permite trabajar, pero si te sacas un titulo aqui, puedes pedir una extension para trabajar durante la mitad de meses de tus estudios (master de dos agnos, un agnito de trabajo con la extension de la J-1). Durante ese periodo, tu empresa deberia mover los papeles para hacerte un H-1B (visado de trabajo; duracion 3+3 agnos). Durante el tiempo que tienes el H1B deberias plantearles el hacer los tramites para la "green card" (residencia permanente).

Finally, some J-1s are subject to a requirement that they spend two years in the home country before they become eligible for immigrant status in the United States, or for long-term employment as a nonimmigrant.

8. What is the J-1 two-year home-country residence requirement? Will I be subject to it?
If you hold J-1 student status in the United States, you will be subject to this requirement IF
(1) you receive financial support from your home government, the government of the United States, or an international agency, OR
(2) you study in a field that is listed under your home country on the Exchange Visitor Skills List published by the United States information Agency, OR
(3) you work in the United States as a medical resident or intern. If you are subject, you will have to spend two years back in your country (not just outside the United States) before you become eligible for status as a nonimmigrant H-1B temporary worker or L-1 intracompany transferee, OR as an immigrant or permanent resident. If you are subject, then so are your J-2 dependents. F-1 status will not make you subject to this requirement. Note, however, that a J-1 student who is subject, and who leaves the United States and reenters in F-1 or any other status before spending two years in his or her home country, has not satisfied the requirement and therefore remains ineligible for status as an H-1B or L-1, or as an immigrant.
