You will be welcomed as a visitor with a U.S. Department of State J-1 visa. This visa allows you to live and work in the United States for up to four months during your university summer break. It also gives you the possibility to travel for an additional 30 days after your job ends.

Visitors with J-1 visas require a sponsor. As a student in the ºÚÁÏÍø911Work & Travel USA program, ºÚÁÏÍø911is your sponsor. We’re responsible for making sure you are prepared to live in America, have access to a good job with a responsible employer, and have a meaningful cultural exchange experience. We also monitor your health, safety and well-being while you are in this country.

You will be working for one of thousands of employers located all across the United States. Your representative can tell you all you need to know about your employment options.

To be eligible for the ºÚÁÏÍø911Work & Travel USA Program, you must:

• Be at least 18 years old (check with your local representative for specific rules)
• Be registered as a full-time university student
• Be able to function in English, both at work and in a community
• Have a pre-arranged job (ºÚÁÏÍø911can help)
• Have at least $800 to support yourself upon arrival in the United States

We welcome students who wish to come back. Ask your ºÚÁÏÍø911international representative, or contact ºÚÁÏÍø911for further details to find out if you are a candidate for a second visit.
