Attendance at Immigration Orientation is Required!
Immigration Orientations are scheduled two times each month. You will receive the date of your session during your required ISSS check-in. You are required to attend an orientation session on J-1 immigration issues. Until you have attended this session, your check-in process at the University of Iowa is not complete.
What to Bring to Orientation Check-in
- Your passport
- Your DS-2019
- Form I-94 (the small white card you completed when you entered the United States)
- A pen or pencil
You must be present for the entire session, so please be sure to arrive a few minutes before the scheduled start time. If you arrive late you may be required to return for a later program. Your host faculty member is invited to attend this session with you, and if you wish to bring someone to translate you are welcome to do so.
