Visa Renewal

If you need to renew your visa ISSS advises that you plan ahead.  More information on visa renewal can be found online at,http://travel.state.gov/visa/questions/questions_1253.html.  Also, you can use this site to find out the current visa processing times at the consulate nearest you, but note these are only estimates,  http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/wait/wait_4638.html.

We recommend you have the following available if you need to renew your visa:  academic transcripts, proof of funding, ISSS letter, and (if you are in a “dual technology” field) resume, list of publications, a letter from your department, and description of employment and/or program of study.
