The U.S.A. Department of Homeland Security requires all aliens seeking an initial F-1 or J-1 visa from an embassy or consulate abroad to pay a non-refundable $350 SEVIS fee to maintain the SEVIS database and provide support to the network.

Please make sure you pay the fee and print a receipt at least 3 days in advance of your consulate interview. Remember, the SEVIS fee cannot be paid at the U.S.A. Embassy or Consulate. Dependents do not have to pay the SEVIS Fee.

There are two general fee payment options:

• Payment in U.S. dollars by credit card over the Internet
• Payment in U.S. dollars by check or bank draft drawn on a U.S. bank
