J-1 EV Scholar Contact Information Updates

During your J-1 Exchange Visitor Scholar Program, you are required to notify OIS of any changes to your U.S. residential address, phone number, or e-mail address within ten days of the change.

  1. Submit the Address and Contact Information Update E-Form in myOIS.
  2. Confirm that the update was accepted by OIS. An OIS Advisor will contact you within 3 business days to let you know if any further information is required, or that the change was processed.
