New Jersey J-1 Visa Waiver Program

About this program

The New Jersey Department of Health offers a unique opportunity for foreign physicians with a J-1 visa, providing a waiver for those willing to serve in underserved areas of the state for three years. This program aims to address the shortage of physicians in specific regions, ensuring access to healthcare for all New Jersey residents. Applicants must be primary care or sub-specialty trained physicians, and the program is open to all eligible foreign physicians, offering a chance to contribute to the state's healthcare system and remain in the U.S.
