The advisory opinion you received covers your son's J-2 visa as well in that the 2 yr. HRR does not apply to him either.

Yours is enough. They are not always correct but are for the most part.

You only need an AO for the principal J-1 visa status holder.

The advisory opinion covers the J principal and to regular J2beneficiaries. If you have participated in more than one program make sure you received the advisory opinion for each program.
