Visa Application
In order to work in America during the summer it is a requirement for participants to have a J-1 visa. AmeriCamp will provide the necessary DS-2019 form (Certificate of Eligibility) which is required to apply for a J-1 visa for placed applicants.
You will be sent a full set of instructions on how to apply.
You will be required to attend a personal interview at their local US Embassy in either Sydney, Melbourne or Perth and it should be noted that this could take a couple of hours to attend and any costs of travel to and from the Embassy is your responsibility.
The cost of the J1 visa is $160 payable directly to the US embassy, AmeriCamp will charge you a $34 handling fee to cover the cost of shipping your DS2019 from the US office.
