Step 3: Complete the Request for Form I-20/DS-2019
Students requesting F-1 or J-1 sponsorship from UNC Chapel Hill, must complete and submit all of the e-forms in the ISSS Admitted/New Student Intake process, including:
- New Student Questionnaire
- Personal Information
- Dependent Information
- Financial Information
- Current Immigration Status
- Attestations and Final Submission
Once all forms have been submitted, students will receive an email confirmation.
Processing of the Form I-20 or Form DS-2019 takes approximately three weeks from the date the all forms (as listed above) in the Admitted/New Student Intake process have been submitted. Once the Form I-20 has been issued, it will be sent to the student’s UNC email address; Form DS-2019 will be sent to the student via mail.
Students should be sure to check their regular inbox and junk/spam mail for both their UNC and personal accounts. Students should contact the ISSS office for assistance at isss@unc.edu, if needed.
NOTE: Students who have been admitted to UNC for the fall semester should upload all documents to the ISSS Portal by July 1st. For the spring semester, students should upload all required documents by November 1st.
