Non-Immigrant Visas

Student Visas

When Do I Need to Apply for My Student Visa?

Students are encouraged to apply for their visa early to provide ample time for visa processing. Students may apply for their visa as soon as they are prepared to do so.
The consular officer may need to get special clearances depending on the course of study and nationality of the student. This can take some additional time.

Initial-entry Students should note that Embassies and Consulates are able to issue your student visa 120 days or less, in advance of the course of study registration date. If you apply for your visa more than 120 days prior to your start date or registration date as provided on the Form I-20, the Embassy or Consulate will hold your application until it is able to issue the visa. Consular officials will use that extra time to accomplish any of the necessary special clearances or other processes that may be required. Continuing students may apply for new F or M visas at any time, as long as they have maintained their student status and their Student and Exchange Visitor Information (SEVIS) records are current.

Students are advised of the Department of Homeland Security regulation which requires that all initial or beginning students enter the U.S. 30 days or less in advance of the course of study start/report date as shown on the Form I-20. Please consider this date carefully when making travel plans to the U.S.

A student who wants to an earlier entry in the U.S. (more than 30 days prior to the course start date), must qualify for, and obtain a visitor visa. A prospective student notation will be shown on his/her visitor visa and the traveler will need to make the intent to study clear to the U.S. immigration inspector at port of entry. Before beginning any studies, he or she must obtain a change of classification, filing Form I-506, Application for Change of Nonimmigrant Status, and also submit the required Form I-20 to the Department of Homeland Security office where the application is made. Please be aware that there is an additional fee of $140 for this process, and that one may not begin studies until the change of classification is approved.

请问楼上的是在哪里证实是45天的呢？我找到的官方文件都是说30天啊。马上要出票，急需确认，多谢了！

fermataUID: 2203433

新找到一个2月份的官方文件，好像提前45天的法案已经被批准，但是还需要DHS完成个新条令来执行，还是不清楚现在是不是实行了。谁有最新的消息啊？

祈祷45天吧

zhujunling65UID: 2229445

各位大侠,前面有争论说不能提前30天或45天入境.
但不知对推迟入境有何限制?可否推迟入境超过30天(即比DS2019表格中的入境时间晚30天)?如果推迟入境超过30天的话,是否需要新的DS2019表格才能入关?

急! 哪位大侠能够指点迷津,不胜感激.
注:我是J1签证.

这里有一份官方文件说的是45天入境

30-Day Policy - now 45-Day Policy
         

Students applying for initial-entry F-1, F-2, and M-1 and M-2 visas may now be issued those visas up to 120 days before their academic program start date (as compared to 90 days under previous regulations). J-1 and J-2 visitors may be issued visas at any time before the beginning of their programs. Students or exchange visitors, however, will not be admitted to the U.S. more than 45 days before the start of their study or program by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

If a student or exchange visitor wishes to travel earlier to locate housing, he or she will have to qualify for a B visa and then re-enter with the correct visa or have a change of status processed by the Department of Homeland Security before they can begin study.

For persons resident in Canada, it would normally be better to enter in B status and then return to Canada to re-enter in F, M or J status as that will eliminate the need for costly and time-consuming processing of a change-of-status at DHS that could delay the start of the academic or professional program.
