🌟 Important Information for J1 Visa Holders 🌟

Question: Can I legally stay in the USA after I finish my program?

Answer: While some students may try to change their visa status in the USA, it's crucial to remember that the J1 Visa is a single-purpose visa. Any activities pursued outside the program, like travel or further studies, are violations of the J1 rules and can have serious consequences.

🚫 Consequences: Breaking J1 rules can impact your immigration record, leading to potential visa denials in the future for you, your siblings, and even your parents. The Embassy closely monitors visa violations, which can affect other students from the same university as well.

‼️Remember, the goal of the J1 program is for participants to return to their home countries and share their experiences.

🙌🏻Stay informed and comply with the regulations to avoid any complications down the road. 💙

Dear J-1 Participants,

As part of the J-1 Work and Travel Program, you must adhere to U.S. tax laws and file your returns by April 15. Here are the key consequences of missing this deadline:

Late Filing Penalties: The IRS will charge 5% of unpaid taxes per month, up to 25%, for late filing.
Late Payment Penalties: If taxes are due and not paid by April 15, you'll incur a penalty of 0.5% per month, up to 25%, plus interest.
State Penalties: Similar charges apply at the state level depending on local tax laws.
Visa Implications: Non-compliance can affect your future visa applications.
Social Security and Medicare: Eligibility might be impacted if you don't file.
Delayed Refunds: You won’t receive any tax refunds until you file, and filing too late could mean losing the refund entirely.
Please ensure you file on time to avoid these issues. If you need help, consult a SPRINTAX.com or use IRS and state resources.
