How can an exchange visa get extended?

I assume that the exchange visa here is the J1 visa for the foreign exchange visitors. To acquire an extension beyond the limited years of stay of your J1 exchange visitor program, you will need to contact the responsible officer/alternate responsible officer at your institution concerning an extension. Usually, it will reauire certain reason, such as the requirement of your current program or project and fill forms for the extension, and may also require your current copy of form DS-2019 or IAP-66.

Will you have problems leaving the country if your J1 visa expires 12 days before your flight back to your home country?

AnswerMost definitely. You must apply for an extention (if allowed) but once you pass the date on the visa you are now considered an illegal alien and probably be flagged that way if you ever try to get a visa to return. Think long and hard about extending your lawful stay, it may affect the rest of your visitation rights to the US for the rest of your life! Actually you have a 30 day grace period after your status expires for a j1 visa. You can remain in the country legally for 30 days after the expiration.


Will a cannabis caution 2 years ago stop you getting a j1 visa to the US?

you may need to provide a police clearance for the job, but not for the visa. I'm not sure what a "caution" is, but if it doesn't show up as a conviction on a police record, then there's no problem.
