ISSS Classic: J Exchange Visitor Action > Reprint DS-2019 Request Follow

This article outlines the steps to complete a Reprint request to reprint a DS-2019 for a J-1 Exchange Visitor in SEVIS batch. This update action is managed directly from the SEVIS Profile for the J-1 Exchange Visitor.

 

 

Step 1: Create Reprint Request 

An Exchange Visitor (EV) may initiate a Reprint Request application. In order for them to do so, offices will need to create the EV-facing Reprint Request application, and then create an EV-facing link for the Terra Dotta page, an external webpage, or even an email that the EV can click to access a request in Terra Dotta. You will review their completed application, then create a SEVIS update record directly in their SEVIS profile. There are no SEVIS-mapped question items to manage this action.

 

 

Step 2: Create a SEVIS Update Record

Alternatively, admins may initiate a Reprint request for an EV by creating a new SEVIS update record:

  1. From the EV profile or any record, click the SEVIS Profile button.
  2. Click New SEVIS Update record.  
  3. From the dropdown menu, select Reprint Request.
  4. A window will display for you to select the Reprint Request Reason. Select the reason for reprint from the dropdown menu. Remarks are optional. Click Add.
  5. In the Return form section, select Reprint Request from the dropdown menu.

For detailed instructions, see the KB SEVIS Admin: Creating a SEVIS Update Record. 

Next, go to Pending Updates to assign your update to a SEVIS batch. For general instructions on adding a SEVIS update record to a batch, see SEVIS Admin: Assigning a SEVIS Update to a Batch.
