Hey All,

A while back a remember there being (frequently changing) minimum time requirements on an E-2 before immi would allow a teacher to transfer it (with LOR and supporting docs) to another sponsoring school. Anyone know what that time frame is, if it still exists?

Typically 6 months unless there are extenuating circumstances (like the school going bankrupt or closing).

If you have a formal claim against your school with the labor board k-immi will usually allow you to change employers as well without worrying about the 6 month mark.

1) If you just quit cause your job sucks - then 6 months and a LOR

OR

2) leave, hand in your ARC to cancel your visa, return and begin the visa process all over again from scratch.
