朋友的孩子去年夏天以學生的身分來讀書,現在回國休假,剛剛收到另外一個好的大學的通知書,他準備去,那麽他重新入境的時候,是用原來的i20表格還是用新的?還是用舊的,然後transfer between schools?
-He is in China now, right? Did he do the F-1 transfer before he left? If no, either way is OK. But if he uses the new I-20 to enter US, he has to pay the SEVIS fee to get a new SEVIS number. If he enters US using the old I-20, then do the F-1 transfer, then he can use the old SEVIS number (not need to pay SEVIS fee). So, he had better enter US using the old I-20, and then do the F-1 transfer.
