so question 14 asks:

Manner of last entry (visitor, student, etc.):

i'm here on a J-1 visa which is kind of weird - it's a 'student' visa, but it's also an 'exchange visitor' visa because i'm not studying but working instead, AND it's part of the 'summer work/travel program'. should i just put 'exchange visitor'? or 'J-1 visa'? or BOTH??

also: for question 15:

Current immigration status:

this will be the same answer as the above question, right? since i haven't left the US and am still here on my J-1.

one more question:

the first thing it asks is why you're applying... since i already have work authorisation through my J-1, should i tick:

'applying for permission to accept employment'

or

'renewal of my permission to accept employment' (it says to attach previous employment authorisation document, which i guess is my DS-2019 form?
