SO, to anybody that might know this information, I would greatly appreciate it. My non-us fiancee wants to attend a work and travel program. Now, if we were to get married while she attends, will the process still be effective for the Visa? Can she still work with the program? And if anyone knows the average fees for the Work and Travel program form Poland, or where I can find the info, I'd apreciate the help. THANKS!

Ok I have come with a Work and Travel program to the US three times. I was going to a college in Bulgaria though so I did not just stay in the US while on a J-1 visa. I do, however, know at least three people that got married while having their J-1 visas without ever leaving the country. I do not know how they did it though. I know, however, that it's possible but not preferable. It does not make a case too attractive to the immigration because a J-1 visa involves people going back after being in the US.
A work and travel visa is usually not subject to a 2 years home residence requirement though. It's a good thing because she won't have to go through what I did...staying physically 2 years in the country of residence that is.

and yes...a J-1 visa is a non-immigrant visa
