If one already has had an M1 visa to train for their PPL in the States can they get a J1 visa?
I would like it if people who have done this could contact me.
Thanks

you should have no problem getting one :ok:
Ah, not so fast.
There are restrictions to the J-1 visa.
If you have too much aeronautical experience it will be denied.
If anything it is an "ab-initio" visa.
If you already hold a license you are no longer eligible.

Of course you are.
You can hold a Private Licence and get a J1 visa.
So why ask the bloody question if you know all the answers davey...:ugh:
get in touch with an immigration and visa attorney, trust me there is a cut-off point.
Try www.visapro.com, you'll probably argue with them as well...:ok:

I was asking if I could get a J1 visa, if I had already had an M1 visa.
Not. If I could get a J1 visa if I had a PPL.
