Publication ID: Fall 1993

Title: Exchange Visitor Program
Abstract: The regulation will set forth a complete revision of 22 CFR 514. Such revision is required as current regulations are dated, contradictory, and confusing, and lack both clarity and comprehensiveness. The revision will enhance Agency oversight of the Exchange Visitor Program as well as clarify the duties and obligations of sponsors conducting exchange programs. This action is undertaken pursuant to a thorough review of the Exchange Visitor Program, its enabling legislation, and past history. The revision will ensure that Exchange activities conducted under the aegis of the J-visa conform to United States immigration and labor laws and are consistent with both the Fulbright-Hays Act of 1961 and the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948.
