Note: Applicants from Germany and Austria applying through Intrax Germany are exempt and may purchase insurance coverage through a provider of their choice.

What happens if your plans change?
We want you to feel confident applying. Here is exactly what to expect if something changes before your program begins.
Non-refundable fees: These cover Intrax service fees and costs for services completed and incurred on your behalf.
Placement services: If you withdraw from the program after we have matched you with a host company, cancellation fees may apply. Contact your local IGI office or partner agency for the exact terms.
Visa denial: If your visa is denied by the U.S. embassy, a partial refund may be available depending on what services have already been provided. Contact your local office for the refund schedule specific to your situation.
Timing matters: To be eligible for any refund, you must notify IGI before your J-1 program start date. Refund requests received after the program has begun will not be considered.
