Advise regarding J1 visa and changing status later to TN...?

Hello,

Currently I am in States studying for a State bar exam and I've been contemplating getting a J1 visa. My 6 month visitor stay is almost up and I was worried about getting denied at the border when I tried to re-enter the United States for an unpaid internship. So, I was wondering if obtaining a J1 visa would help. However, then my next concern is if I obtained a J1 visa, would changing it to a TN status be problematic?

Is there someone that has gone through or in the same situation as me and can advise me on:

1) if they have been denied after being in the US for 6 months,
2) changing to TN status with a J1 visa, and/or
3) having the 2 year residency requirement of the J1 visa waived)

I appreciate any advise that you give. Thanks!

Hi guys/gals.

How come this is the only forum that I use out of 60 that I have to keep changing the password every few months.

This is surely a pain in the backside for users, well it is to me?

If you get a single-entry visa, you can actually go back and forth between Canada and the US before going back to the Philippines. Errr...do you get it?

I was playing in Goalwin and everything was perfect, but when the searches Europoker game slow down and open my tables wrong. As can be if both are of Ongame?

Thanks for your attention.
