Thinking about traveling outside the U.S. this summer? If you’re returning next fall to continue your academic program, you need to carry specific documents to reenter the U.S. Please review the important information on the Travel Documents for Students page before making travel plans. Travel signatures on I-20 forms can now be digital. This means that you are no longer required to have a “wet” signature from the designated school official (DSO) on your I-20. However, your own signature on the I-20 must still be a wet ink signature. When International Services provides you with an electronic and digitally signed I-20 for travel, you are required to print the I-20 and sign it before reentering the U.S.
If you want to travel outside the country while your OPT application is pending, you need to follow certain rules and carry specific documents in order to reenter the U.S. Please read Travel on OPT before making travel plans.
Traveling internationally? You’ll need a valid travel signature on your DS-2019 in order to reenter the U.S. As of April 28, 2023, we can sign and send your DS-2019 form to you electronically! You may request a PDF copy of your DS-2019 with a new travel signature in myStatus.
