Address Reporting Requirement for SEVIS Compliance
Federal regulations require that all F1 or J1 students provide their school with a physical local U.S. address and a permanent foreign address (outside of the U.S.), while they are studying at NJIT or have post-completion work authorization.
Regulations also require all students with F1 or J1 status to report changes of U.S. address within 10 days of a move. When you report your address in your myGlobal International Student Portal we will review it and update it in your SEVIS record.
* Current students (except for OPT/STEM) must also report address changes in their Highlander Pipeline*
You MUST use this exact format to enter U.S. address and phone number:
Address Line 1 – Street Number and Name
Address Line 2 – Apartment Number (if available)
Address Line 3 – City
Address Line 4 - State:
Address Line 5 - Zip Code
Address Line 6 - Phone number
For example:
Address Line 1 – 123 Main Street
Address Line 2 – Apt. 14B
Address Line 3 – Newark
Address Line 4 – NJ
Address Line 5 – 07103
Address Line 6 – 9735961235
All these fields are required by the U.S. government.
You are required to update them every time they change.
