For ISS clients, we discussed the upcoming F-1 and J-1 rule changes during our September 2, 2026 webinar, which you can view below.
Because implementation of this new rule will continue to evolve, we have created a F-1 & J-1 Rule Change FAQ and Resources page, available HERE. This page includes the resources referenced during the webinar, answers to frequently asked questions, and additional guidance.
We encourage you to use the FAQ page as your primary resource for the most current information and updates as the rule takes effect on September 15, 2026.
As we see how the new requirements are implemented in practice, ISS will continue to update our guidance and keep our clients informed of important developments.
