Ben Kurten co-presented “Navigating the J-1 Two-Year Home Residency Waiver for Physicians,” a business immigration seminar offered by the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). Ben offered his insights in this live and on-demand CLE-eligible course designed for immigration lawyers dealing with foreign physicians and medical students. The course covers topics such as J-1 waiver prerequisites, the legal framework of licensing and credentialing for foreign-born medical grads and waiver-free alternatives such as O-1’s and H-1Bs for Canadians.
