    If you have 2 yrs rule attached to your J-1, you must return to your home country. To change to other non-immigrant status, you need to get a J-1 waiver. No exception.

    To obtain visa E, if you are qualified, yes... BUT you cannot apply for an E visa on your own behalf except for investor category. Generally, the employer or business partner must petition for the status with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Once the petition is approved, you must then apply for a visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate.
