ICE SEVP No Longer Mailing Notices of Action for SEVIS Fee Payments


U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced (PDF) that as of July 31, 2013, the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) is no longer mailing the Form I-797C, Notice of Action, for I-901 SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) fee payments. Payment confirmations the user can print from the fee website will replace the I-797C. ICE said that the printed confirmation “will serve as proof of payment for the I-901 SEVIS fee.”

The paper I-901, which no longer contains a field for expedited receipt delivery, is available on the SEVP website (PDF).
