darknight2 Posted June 28, 2015 Report Posted June 28, 2015 Hi All, Friend of mine got visa stamped for a university in US for fall 2015. Due to some personal reasons he is planning to postpone his study for summer 2016. I know usually colleges issue new I20's for the coming semester in those situations. Now my question is does he need to go to stamping again for the spring 2016 ? Are there any other things that I need to consider, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
livliv Posted June 29, 2015 Report Posted June 29, 2015 If the Visa is still valid on the day of travel, new Visa will not be needed.
JoeF Posted June 29, 2015 Report Posted June 29, 2015 My understanding is that if it has been more than 5 months since the visa was issued and he didn't come to the US, he needs a new visa.

Yes, I had forgotten that. It is better to apply again, it is highly likely to be approved if for the same school and program.
