| 28. | Can I leave and re-enter the U.S. if my DS-2019, Certificate of Eligibility, and I-94, Arrival-Departure document, are still valid but my visa has expired? |

| 30. | Can I change status to J-1 student from J-1 researcher? | | | | | |

| 31. | Can I change from short term J-1 researcher to long-term J-1 researcher? | | | |
| |
Yes, you may. However, some sponsors may require you to obtain a new visa and re-enter the U.S. before allowing you to change your status. |
