Traveling This Summer?
Don't forget to reach out to ISS for an updated Travel Signature before you travel.
Be sure to check your I-20 or DS-2019 for a valid travel signature. This is one of the simplest steps to complete and one of the easiest to forget about!
If you need a new signature, the first step is to submit a Travel Signature Request Format least 2 weeks before you plan to leave campus. An advisor will review the request and students should assume that their submission has been received and will be processed unless they are contacted by an advisor about a specific issue.
When the signed I-20 or DS-2019 is ready, a final email is sent to the student. It can take 5-7 business days to be notified about the I-20 or DS-2019 being ready.
Please plan accordingly so that this process and your travel plans go as smoothly as possible! And remember, you need this valid travel signature on your document to return to the US, not to depart. If you have to travel before getting an updated travel signature, ISS will work with you so that you have what you need to re-enter the US.
