You can enter not more than 30 days before your class starting date. Existing valid F1 visa can be used. Link to comment

pd111 Posted September 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Hello, Thanks for your responses! This is the response i got from my college DSO when i requested for reactivitating OLD SEVIS record with existing F1-Visa. " SEVIS fee paid last year got expired and existing SEVIS is too old to reactivate, So Please pay SEVIS fee again and we will issue new I-20 and so you will have to reapply for F1-Visa Stamping before you come for Spring-2015 (Jan-2015)" Can you please let me know if F1- Re stamping is required? Looking forward for a response. Many Thanks! Link to comment
