Department of Homeland Security SEVIS Fee vs. Rutgers SEVIS Administration Fee

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) SEVIS Fee
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) SEVIS Fee is required for all prospective J-1 exchange visitors who have been issued Form DS-2019 for the first time on or after September 1, 2004. The fee is payable one time for each separate program in which the J-1 exchange visitor participates, extending from the time the exchange visitor is granted J-1 status to the time he or she changes immigration status or completes the program and departs the United States. The fee is collected by DHS for the operation and maintenance of SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System). Rutgers University does not receive any portion of this fee.
