On November 1, the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) published SEVP Policy Guidance: Use of Electronic Signatures and Transmission for the Form I-20.
This guidance permits designated school officials to electronically sign and transmit the Form I-20 to initial and continuing students and their dependents. Additionally, school officials can scan and email or electronically transmit the Form I-20 via a secure platform, such as a school portal or other secure site to F and M students and their dependents.
There are currently no other changes to SEVP forms or processes.
