| The U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) provides two nonimmigrant visa classifications for persons wishing to study in the United States. At an educational institution approved by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the "F" visa is for academic studies, and the "M" visa is for nonacademic or vocational studies.
Students accepted at academic institutions will receive, from the school Form I-20A-B, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student Status for Academic and Language Students (F-1). Nonacademic or vocational institutions issue Form I-20M-N, Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student Status for Vocational Students (M-1).
Any returning students or exchange visitors, who departed the United States on or after 15 February 2003, must bear SEVIS-generated documents, and SEVIS rules apply.
All continuing students and exchange visitors must present SEVIS-generated Forms I-20 or DS-2019, respectively, to fulfill the statutory requirement for electronic verification of student and exchange visitor status. All student and exchange visitor data entered into the Interim Student and Exchange Authentication System or ISEAS prior to 15 February 2003 will remain available to Consulates for verification purposes.
Please be aware that U.S. Department of Homeland Security regulations state that holders of F, M, or J nonimmigrant visas will not be admitted to the United States UNTIL thirty days or less prior to the beginning of the program date, or start date, as given on the Form I-20 (for F or M visas) or DS-2019 (for J visas). Please consider that date carefully when making travel plans to the United States.

| DERIVATIVES The spouse and unmarried children under 21 years old of the F, J or M visa holder may be given F-2, J-2 or M-2 visas, respectively, if they seek to accompany or "follow to join" the primary visa holder.
HOW TO APPLY To apply, please check the Nonimmigrant Visa Application Procedures page. In addition to the basic documentary requirements, the applicant must submit/comply with the following additional documentary requirements: FOR PRINCIPAL APPLICANTS 1. Completed Contact Information and Work History Form (DS-158) 2. Original SEVIS-generated Form I-20 ( Nonimmigrant Student Status for Academic and Language Students ) for F/M applicants or Original SEVIS-generated Form DS-2019 (Certificate of Eligibility for Exchange Visitor) for J applicants 3. Proof of SEVIS fee payment. 5. Financial evidence showing sufficient funds to cover the costs for the first year of intended study and a reasonable source of funds thereafter.
Students are advised to apply for a visa and plan for travel as early as possible. Original Form I-20 is recommended but not required at the time of the interview. Students do not have to be in possession of Form I-20 to make an appointment. Student visa, however, can only be issued after the submission of an original Form I-20. Please note that students needing to leave earlier than their scheduled appointment dates can submit requests for early appointments. FOR DEPENDENTS 1. Completed Contact Information and Work History Form (DS-158) 2. Copy of principal’s SEVIS-generated Form I-20 ( Nonimmigrant Student Status for Academic and Language Students ) for F/M applicants or Copy of principal’s SEVIS-generated Form DS-2019 (Certificate of Eligibility for Exchange Visitor) for J applicants 3. Copy of principal’s Proof of SEVIS fee payment 4. Copy of principal’s nonimmigrant F-1, J-1 or M-1 visa Note:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR F/M VISA APPLICANTS Being accepted by a U.S. school and being issued a Form I-20 will not by itself result in issuance of a student visa.
Students must demonstrate that the primary purpose for their travel to the United States is for study. Under Section 214(b) of the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act, applicants still must prove that they will leave the United States upon expiration of their authorized period of stay. A school admission as demonstrated by the Form I-20 is only one of the factors we must consider.
Student visas cannot be used to circumvent ineligibility for other types of visas. On occasion student visa applications are submitted for children, whose family members have immigrated to the United States, it is often difficult for such applicants to qualify, as it is difficult to prove that the applicant intends to return to the Philippines. Student Visas will generally not be issued solely for English language study. As the Philippines education system is conducted in English, individuals pursuing study in the United States should generally be proficient in English at the time of their application to a U.S. school.
Plans of study must indicate a reasonable course of academic progress. Applicants planning to pursue a community college degree after already having received a four-year undergraduate degree in the Philippines are unlikely to be issued student visas, as in most instances the proposed program of study does not appear to be a plausible "next step." Applicants who already have a BA/BS degree from an institution in the Philippines are encouraged to pursue graduate study or at least a second BA/BS degree, with credit for prior undergraduate study.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR J-1 VISA APPLICANTS Section 212 (e) of the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act requires that certain "J" exchange visitors meet a two-year residency requirement in their home country prior to leaving to live or work in another. Exchange visitors should return to their home-country or last country of residence immediately after the completion of training/education and take residence in said country for at least two years. Please click here for more information.
The Exchange Visitor Program (EVP) Committee in the Philippines, through the Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO), requires Filipino exchange visitors (J-1 visa holders) to attend a Pre-Departure Registration And Orientation Seminar. The seminar aims to inform the participants about the conditions and requirements of the EVP as well as the participants’ responsibilities as J-1 visa holders. Please visit their website for more detailed information.
