Learn about upcoming changes for school and sponsor users in SEVIS Release 6.51 by joining the webinar on Friday, February 14, 2020, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. EDT. During the first part of the webinar, SEVP representatives will discuss the few changes to student and dependent information fields and have a short question and answer period for school users.

  • Changes affecting both F/M and J SEVIS

  • Changes affecting only J SEVIS
    • New fields for exchange visitor and spouse/dependents
    • New and updated validations
    • New look and feel of the exchange visitor information page
    • Updated search
