12. Causes of Program Termination
If your program is terminated, it may result in issues with obtaining any future visas to the USA.
Program terminations on the Jobs America Program are rare, as long as you follow the rules listed
above. The most important thing to remember is to communicate frequently with Spirit, especially if
you are considering any change in employment or housing. Remember that THE FOLLOWING
ACTIONS WILL RESULT IN PROGRAM TERMINATION:
1. Failure to arrive to the employer listed on the DS-2019 form and start work (Visa Fraud – see
details below)
2. Failure to validate your program within 7 days of your arrival in the US
3. Failure to submit the online Monthly Check-In with Spirit at least every 30 days
4. Starting work at a new employer that Spirit has not approved
5. Breaking a U.S. law that causes arrest or citation, or taking part in an action which could
bring program into notoriety or disrepute
6. Failure to respond to Spirit’s communication attempts by the deadline provided
7. Providing false information or withholding information from Spirit (such as failure to disclose
pre-existing medical conditions on the participant application)
