FORM DS-7002
(posted February 12, 2008)

ECFMG’s Exchange Visitor Sponsorship Program has received numerous inquiries about a new form created by the U.S. Department of State, Form DS-7002. Form DS-7002 is a new document to be used for J-1 Exchange Visitors in the “trainee” category ONLY and will not be used for foreign national physicians seeking to enter the United States for graduate medical education in the ECFMG-sponsored category of J-1 “alien physician.” Current regulations pertaining to J-1 physicians can be found in [22 CFR 62.27].
