International Students & Scholars Services (ISSS) is able to provide you with general guidance and information only. However, any advice provided to you by our office, as well as the information on our website or informational packets, do not constitute legal advice. Although we do advise students and scholars concerning their status, there is not an attorney-client relationship. Additionally, due to the fluid nature of governmental interpretation, the USCIS may change its interpretation of immigration policies, procedures, regulations, and eligibility requirements for benefits at any time. This office will do its best to provide you with the most current guidance, but please be mindful that each case is fact-specific, and it is advised that you contact an experienced immigration attorney if you have questions regarding your situation.
