OIE will use this page to share evolving U.S. immigration policies pertaining to F and J student visa holders.
Duration of Status
The Department of Homeland Security published a final rule to replace Duration of Status for F and J visa holders. The implementation of the final rule to replace Duration of Status has been paused. The litigation is ongoing and OIE will continue to monitor the case.
OIE is working with campus partners to analyze the rule and develop guidance. OIE will publish the most up-to-date information here: https://isss.oie.gatech.edu/duration-status.
