International Student Services provides general guidance. Any advice provided to you
by the ISS should not be construed as legal advice.
Additionally, due to the fluid nature of governmental interpretation, government agencies
such as USCIS/ICE/CBP may change their interpretation of immigration laws/regulations
and eligibility requirements for benefits at any time. We will do our best to provide
the most current guidance.
Each case is fact-specific and it is advised that you contact an experienced immigration
attorney if you have questions regarding your situation.
