I would like to come to the US on a J-1 visa. I would like to hear from people who have actually experienced this. I don't care if it is good or bad. I would like to hear both if possible.

A friend of mine was here on a J-1 visa. She was not paid a very high salary, so she had to live off her savings. In her case, she was able to do what she wanted to do, so she said she still had a good time.

There are two types of J-1 visas: intern and trainee. As a rule of thumb, interns stay for 12 months and trainees stay for 18 months, but there are many different J-1 visa programs. The shortest program is 4 months. The tricky part of the J-1 visa is that you have to stay outside the US for at least 2 years after the visa expires. After that, switching visas is a bit tricky.

If you are going to use an agent, we recommend that you do a lot of research before choosing one.
I heard that agency fees and services vary from company to company.

San Francisco ・ I know some of you have lived in the Bay Area for a long time, but I thought we could take another look at the tourist attractions ? It's about time the Corona subsided, and I'm starting to think we could go out if it's within the country or a short distance. Surprisingly, there are some tourist attractions that we don't go to when we live here, so I'd be happy to share some recommendations with each other.

We don't want the number of infected people to increase, but we need tourists to help the city's economy recover and regain its vitality. More outings are also better. While social distance.

Again, it's nice to see the view at Coit Tower. I also recommend Blue Bottle Coffee.

How to apply for unemployment insurance while in time-limited employment

I would like to know if anyone has had a similar experience.

The son of a friend of mine was laid off part time for corona reasons and received UI.
He is currently in a long pending because of overpayments.

Son started a 40 hour/week Federal job from mid-May through July.
He will be DISQUALIFIED because he exceeds his WBA, but this job will end in mid-July, so he is planning to keep filing.
However, he is behind in pay for the Federal job, so he is holding off on filing for 3 weeks.

If I go more than 4-5 weeks without filing anything, will I lose my eligibility for UI benefits ?
If you have had a similar experience or know of anyone who has, please let me know! ? Thanks in advance.

[About Fixed Term Employment Contract ( Limited Term Work )]

I have seen several past cases of Fixed Term Employment Contracts so far, so I will share what I know about them.

Please read the following only on the assumption that the Overpayment is not due to illegal causes such as out-of-state stay filing, intentional overfiling, spoof filing, etc., but due to simple errors in paid leave reporting, etc., and "expected to be resolved eventually"!

"Your son started a 40 hour/week Federal job from mid-May through July, which is DISQUALIFIED because it exceeds his WBA, but he is going to keep filing because this job ends in mid-July."

I suggest you get a certificate ( dated for the start and end of the work period, signed by the employer ) from HR at the Federal job that the work is for a limited time from mid-May through July. Or if you have a contract copy that contains similar information, that would still be fine. If you submit the certificate or contract copy to the UI office, it will not be misinterpreted as "Quit ( Quit ) yourself".

There have actually been quite a few cases in the past where a fixed-term employment contract was misunderstood as a "Quit" because the applicant did not submit a certificate or a copy of the contract on his/her own.

"But I'm behind on my pay for the Federal job, so I'm holding off on filing for three weeks. ?

In conclusion, you will not lose your UI eligibility. In either case, you will need to update your UI account with the Federal Jobs Employer Update. The procedure for updating your employer information is the same as #301 in the "PEUC September Extension Program ( Third PEUC )" topic.

You do not have to file weekly if your Federal work salary reliably exceeds your WBA or 40-hour work week ( but you do need to update your employer information addition ). Some people file properly every week even if they exceed. Either is fine, the rest is up to the individual.

Last year, UI accounts were automatically suspended after a few months of not filing weekly.

"If you choose to file weekly for WBA or Federal payroll even if you exceed 40 hours per week"

Are you in a position to file weekly even with Pending due to overpayments ? If you can If so, you should file weekly for hours worked and labor income for the week without waiting for your paycheck to be deposited. If you do not know your weekly labor income, I think you can ask HR and they will find it out for you.

Postscript.

Part-time is a layoff, so Job Search activity is required. However, I can't find an answer on the Job Search website as to whether or not you need to do a Job Search while working more than 40 hours per week on a fixed-term contract with WBA, so please ask the call center about that.
