The Missouri Conrad 30 J-1 Visa Waiver Program offers a J-1 visa waiver to foreign physicians who commit to serving for 3 years in an approved area of Missouri, waiving the foreign medical residency requirement and allowing them to remain in the United States. The program is intended to provide physician services in areas that typically have difficulty attracting and retaining physicians.
Priority will be given to primary care physicians in the areas of:
- Family medicine
- General pediatrics
- General obstetrics/gynecology
- General internal medicine
- General psychiatry
Waivers may be recommended for other specialties if vacant slots are available in federally designated Health Professional Shortage Areas.
This is an incentive program that offers foreign physicians a visa waiver, allowing them to work in the U.S.
Links to additional guidance, application instructions, and the application package checklist are available on the program website.
The annual application period is October 1 to October 31. Support letters may be requested year-round.
Completed application packets can be emailed to ORHPCinfo@health.mo.gov or mailed to:
