Traveling outside the U.S.? Get your travel signature
F and J students and scholars: If you're traveling outside the U.S., you must have a valid travel signature on your I-20/DS-2019 to re-enter the country.

F-1 and J-1 students and scholars can bring their most recent I-20 or DS-2019 for a travel signature. You do not need to make an appointment.
- I-20/DS-2019 drop-off: Drop off your I-20 or DS-2019 in the ISSS office for an advisor to sign. Your signed document will be available for pick-up in 3 business days.
- Submit e-form through MyISSS: Fill out the “Request a Travel I-20” form in MyISSS to get a signature in 10 business days.
