I understand that India was removed from the J-1 exchange visitor skills list, and this eliminates the home residency requirement for many people who had J-1 visas. Does this apply to J-1 physicians?

Answer

As you note, the change that was made relates to the J-1 skills list. Unfortunately, J-1 physicians generally do not benefit from this change. (24.Dec.2024)
