Hi, is that mandatory for returning to original country to apply for a work visa (Non-O, volunteer) type? Is it also possible to go to a third country to apply for that visa? If all required documents are provided, it should be fine, no?

Comments suggest that returning home is not necessary, although there is some debate and mention of potential issues surrounding the volunteer visa itself.
