Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104.



    Explanatory Note: The Department of State entered into an agreement 

with the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates in 1971 

whereby the latter was designated the authority to administer the 

issuance of the Form IAP-66 in all cases involving the admission, 

certification, transfer or extension of stay for foreign physicians in 

exchange visitor status who are receiving graduate medical education or 

training. The Commission was further designated the authority (Federal 

Register, Volume 44, No. 59, March 26, 1979), to process waiver requests 

under the ``substantial disruption'' provision of Pub. L. 94-484, as 

amended, within criteria to be provided by the United States Information 

Agency on advice from the Department of Health and Human Services 

(formerly Department of Health, Education, and Welfare).
