美國在台協會(AIT)台北辦事處將恢復並優先處理學生及交換訪客簽證(F. M. J)

美國在台協會(AIT)台北辦事處將於2020年7月15日(星期三)開始恢復例行的簽證服務。我們將優先處理學生及交換訪客簽證(F、M、J)。請注意,例行預約的等候時間可能較長。如果您有緊急事件而需要立即出發,請依照這個網頁的指示申請: https://www.ustraveldocs.com/tw_zh/tw-niv-expeditedappointment.asp

所有申請F及M簽證的人在面談時必須提供一份新的I-20。這份I-20必須註明要修讀的課程是線上上課、親自上課、還是兩者綜合。電子檔的I-20表格可以受理。申請J簽證的人則應該準備好要能證明他們的課程並非全部都是線上上課。

目前,修讀全面線上課程的學生「不符合」簽證核發的規定。有關美國國土安全部針對國際學生新規定的更多訊息,可以在這個網頁找到: https://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/bcm2007-01.pdf

請注意,暫停某些移民及非移民者入境美國的幾項美國總統公告仍然有效,包括暫停具有某些國家旅行史以及/或者對美國勞動力市場構成風險的人入境的總統公告(公告9984、9992、9993、9996、10041、10014和10052)。 更多訊息,可以在這個網頁找到: https://www.ustraveldocs.com/tw_zh/。如果您受限於上述任何公告,AIT目前將無法處理您的簽證。

AIT Taipei will resume routine visa services starting on Wednesday, July 15, 2020 and will prioritize student and exchange visitor visas (F, M, J). Please be aware that wait times may be long for routine appointments. If you have an urgent matter and need to travel immediately, please follow the guidance provided at  https://www.ustraveldocs.com/tw/tw-niv-expeditedappointment.asp.

All F and M student visa applicants must have a new I-20 at the time of interview. The I-20 must state whether courses will be online, in person, or both. Electronic I-20s are acceptable. Applicants for J visas should also be prepared to demonstrate that their programs are not completely online.

At this time, students in fully online programs do not meet the requirements for visa issuance. More information about the US Department of Homeland Security’s new procedures for international students can be found at: https://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/bcm2007-01.pdf.

Please be aware that the US presidential proclamations suspending entry to the United States for certain immigrants and nonimmigrants are still in effect, including those proclamations suspending entry for individuals with prior travel to certain countries and/or who present a risk to the U.S. labor market (Presidential Proclamations 9984, 9992, 9993, 9996, 10041, 10014, and 10052). More information is available at https://www.ustraveldocs.com/tw. If you are subject to any of these proclamations, AIT will not be able to process your visa at this time.
