项目扩展
你最初的波士顿大学移民文件是基于你在大学的课程或隶属关系的预期日期。 Your anticipated completion date can change for many reasons—students may change majors or programs, or research can take unexpected (yet exciting) turns. 这在学术界很正常。 如果你需要额外的时间来完成你在BU的学习或隶属关系，ISSO可以就你的选择和所需的文书工作提供建议。
Your Program Completion/End Date
If you are in F or J status, your most recent US entry stamp will be 不ed with “D/S” (duration of status), as your program limits are determined by the dates of your designated program at BU. Pay attention to the program end date on your immigration document and the program end date on your ISSOPortal if you are a student.
- The f - 1 expected program completion date can be found in item #5 of your Form I-20, just after the phrase “and complete studies no later than”.
- The j - 1 expected program end date can be found in Section 3 of your Form DS-2019, where the beginning and ending dates of your exchange visitor program are 不ed.
注意：未能在指定的完成日期之前延长您的移民身份将被视为违反该身份。
学生
- 获得你所在院系的学术批准以继续你的入学。
- 准备以下文件：
- 资金充足证明—must document 足够的资金 to meet the tuition, fees, and cost-of-living expenses for the extension period you are requesting, or for one academic year (two semesters), whichever is shorter. 如果资金是你自己的，你只需要提交一份证明资金的银行信函或对账单。 If you are sponsored (e.g., by your parents), your sponsor will need to provide their bank documentation, plus a 赞助证明表格 or letter of financial support that verifies they will provide funding for your tuition/fees and living expenses while you are at 波士顿大学. 所有财务文件必须是原件，签名和日期，用英文书写，并显示以美元列出的货币金额。
- For second and subsequent requests only, letter from department chair-必须概述导致延迟的令人信服的学术原因，并解释你如何在完成学位的过程中取得正常进展。
- Log into the ISSOPortal to request an I-20项目延期 or DS-2019计划延期。
Important: We recommend you initiate your request for a program extension at least one month before your current program end date as regulations do 不 allow extension after the date expires. 如果您没有在当前文件结束日期之前申请项目延期，您将丧失您的f - 1身份。
您的ISSO顾问将审查申请材料，并确定您是否有资格申请所要求的项目延期。 如果您符合资格*，将为您和F-2/J-2身份的任何家属签发新的移民文件。
*Completion delay caused solely by academic probation or suspension is 不 an acceptable reason for a program extension.
