J-2 visa

A J-2 visa is a non-immigrant visa issued by the United States for "spouses and dependents of J-1 exchange visitors". A person admitted on a J-2 visa is not permitted to take up employment in the United States unless they are granted a work permit. Visitors to the United States on the J-2 visa are permitted to study without having to apply for an F-1 (Student) visa. The J-2 visa expires and becomes invalid at the same time as the corresponding J-1 visa. cite web |url=http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/types/types_1267.html |title=Exchange Visitor (J) Visas |author=United States Department of State |accessdate=2008-03-04]
