Travel & Quarantine

Travel Information
The Presidential Proclamation on suspension of entry provided National Interest Exemptions (NIE) for “Students with valid F-1 and M-1 visas intending to begin or continue an academic program commencing August 1, 2021 or later do not need to contact an embassy or consulate to seek an individual NIE to travel. They may enter the United States no earlier than 30 days before the start of their academic studies."

Quarantine Requirements Before and After Arriving in the U.S.
On January 12, 2021, CDC announced an Order requiring all air passengers arriving to the US from a foreign country to get tested no more than 3 days before their flight departs and to present the negative result or documentation of having recovered from COVID-19 to the airline before boarding the flight. Airlines must deny boarding of passengers who do not provide documentation of a negative test or recovery. For more information, go to the CDC's COVID-19 traveler website.

Quarantine Requirements upon Arriving in Los Angeles County
Los Angeles County requires all travelers (both domestic and international) coming from abroad to self-quarantine for 10 days upon arrival. Those who have been vaccinated do not need to quarantine. For more details, please visit the Los Angeles County Public Health Travel Advisory.

You are responsible for arranging a location to quarantine.

I already traveled outside the U.S. and will be returning to the U.S. to continue my studies. What do I need to return to the U.S.?

Your current I-20 must have a valid travel signature to re-enter the U.S.
You must also have a valid passport for at least 6 months beyond the date of the re-entry
Your F-1 student visa in passport must be valid (except students from Canada)

Can I travel abroad during the semester?
Yes, but If you are planning to travel outside of the U.S., you must stay informed about current global travel warnings, vaccination requirements and delays affecting travelers all over the world. Be sure to obtain a travel signature from your advisor so that you are able to return to the U.S.

Vaccination Requirements

Campus Vaccination Requirements
All students must show proof of full COVID-19 vaccination before participating in activities and courses on campus. Please see the CSULB Immunizations page for details.

Certain exemptions will be accepted for medical or religious reasons. For the specific guideline, please see the CSULB Immunization Exemptions page.

If you have been fully vaccinated by a World Health Organization (WHO) approved vaccine, you have met the requirement for vaccination.

If you have been partially vaccinated with one dose of a WHO approved vaccine, then you can get a second dose of a U.S. approved vaccine.

If you have not been vaccinated, you should quarantine until you receive the first dose. After the first dose and a negative COVID-19 test, you can begin attending classes. For questions, please contact Student Health Services.

Please note that even with a negative COVID-19 test, you will be required to be tested again prior to participating on campus. Campus will provide COVID-19 testing.

Where can I get Vaccinated?

Student Health Services will provide vaccinations to international students. For updated information on how to get vaccinated on campus, please go to the campus Vaccine Clinic webpage.
Students can also go to other places like the pharmacies, city locations, museums and so forth that are offering vaccines. You can do a local search at the CDC Vaccines webpage.

Housing Vaccination Requirements
Students who want to live in housing must have had at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine before June 15, 2021. Email housing@csulb.edu to make your quarantine arrangements with them. See the Housing and Residential Life for additional details.

Student Health Services
If you are not feeling well, please go to the CSULB Student Health Services website for help.

The U.S. government posts up-to-date travel warnings about country events that create potential risks and dangers. Check these sites for updated reports on risks of traveling to certain countries at this time:

Are U.S. Consulates or Embassies Open for Visa Applications?

The U.S. Department of State announcement on April 30, 2021 stated that consulates and embassies will be prioritizing the processing of visas using a “tiered approach.” As a result, it is anticipated that there will be significant delays and backlogs for processing visas. Please check your local U.S. consulate or embassy to determine the timeline for applying and obtaining your visa to enter the U.S. You may also check the Department of State page that lists approximate visa wait times at worldwide U.S. consulates.

Will I Need a New Visa If I Am Outside the U.S. Beyond 5 Months?

As long as your SEVIS record has “active” status, you may re-enter the U.S. with an unexpired F-1 visa. You should notify your international advisor or staff member of your return.

Do I Need to Obtain an NIE Before Traveling?

The U.S. Department of State has announced a National Interest Exception (NIE) which applies to F, M and some J visas holders to enter the U.S. after August 1, 2021. Those who qualify for an NIE do not need to be outside the travel-restricted country for 14 days before entering the U.S. For additional clarity on your specific situation, please contact your local U.S. consulate for guidance.

If you have a valid F-1 visa to begin or to continue your studies on or after August 1, 2021, you are automatically considered for an NIE and do not need to contact a U.S. consulate to obtain it for travel. The same is true for those on F-1 OPT or STEM OPT.

Can H-1B and J-1 visa holders enter the U.S.?

According to the Department of State announcement on May 13, 2021, F-1 and M-1 visa holders automatically qualify for the National Interest Exception (NIE). Those who qualify for an NIE do not need to be outside the travel-restricted country for 14 days before entering the U.S.

However, additional clarification is needed on the NIE rule for J-1 scholars and students. Please contact your nearest embassy to determine your qualification for NIE.

For H-1B faculty, according to NAFSA:

“The prior versions of the NIE policy's reference to "academics" in general is no longer mentioned in the April 26, 2021 version. This might mean that immigration categories like H-1B, L-1, O-1 nonimmigrants may have to qualify for an NIE by establishing that they are "seeking to provide vital support for critical infrastructure," or "for purposes related to humanitarian travel, public health response, and national security."

Can I get a travel endorsement on my DS-2019 for re-entry?

Contact your mentor at CSULB to request an update on the program start date, and submit to ignacio.castor@csulb.edu.

I am a continuing scholar/employee but I cannot enter on time to continue my appointment. What should I do?

Please contact your Academic Department or College Dean’s office to learn alternative options that may be available to you.

Our department is inviting a Visiting Scholar who is currently overseas. When will they be able to start?

Barring another surge in the pandemic, a number of other factors will determine the ability of the visiting scholar to travel to the U.S. and begin their program at CSULB, mainly: 1) the reopening of embassies and consulates for visa issuance; 2) travel restrictions; and 3) availability of flights for international travel.

Are there any current travel restrictions for Permanent Residents?

The Presidential Proclamations DO NOT affect U.S. green card holders, spouses and children of U.S. citizens, and EB-5 investor immigrants, all of whom are exempt from the order. The proclamation ONLY impacts pending immigrant visa applications (applications for permanent residency) for persons who were outside the U.S. on the effective date of the proclamation.

I am quite stressed. Where do I go for support?

CSULB Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) has virtual support groups for all students. Each group meeting will focus on a mental health topic related to the COVID-19 situation. Topics include: Fear, anxiety, and stress amidst a global pandemic, Social distancing and mental health, Racism and microaggression amidst COVID-19 fears, and “Stuck” and away from country and community.'

Degree Students: CSULB Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) is available to offer their support. Please visit their website for the available services. You may also review your Anthem health insurance coverage for information on mental health benefits.
ALI Students: MY SSP is available for support 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. To use the app, check the MY SSP instructional video or ALI Student Health Resource Guide, or email us at ALIPrograms@csulb.edu for assistance.
Exchange and SA@B Students: Please review your Anthem health insurance coverage for information on mental health benefits.
J-1 scholars: Please review your health insurance coverage for information on mental health benefits.

What are the health guidelines related to COVID-19?

Information is available on the CSULB COVID-19 page as well as the Center for Disease Control and Prevention site.

I am experiencing xenophobia, racism, harassment, or bullying. Where do I go for support?

Contact CSULB’s Office of Equity & Diversity to report your incident and obtain support.

How do I apply for Severe Economic Hardship or Special Student Relief work authorization?

Degree Students: This is available for degree students only. An international advisor will assist you during a one-on-one Zoom advising appointment to review in detail the option of “Severe Economic Hardship.” Book an appointment to meet with an advisor.

I have an immediate need for financial assistance. Does the university have any aid for international students?

The U.S. government has approved for COVID-19 emergency funding to include international students studying in the United States. For up-to-date information and details on how to access this funding, please visit the Reuniting the Beach COVID-19 information page. You may also still apply for the Student Emergency Intervention and Wellness Fund.

Can I have an on-campus job and work outside of California remotely?

No. Due to treaty regulations, CSULB does not allow student employment from outside the State of California or outside United States.

I’m on F-1 OPT and am working fewer than 20 hours a week due to the economic impacts of COVID-19. Is this ok?

Yes. For the duration of the COVID-19 emergency, SEVP considers students who are working in their OPT opportunities for fewer than 20 hours a week as actively engaged in OPT.

I am outside of the U.S. and unable to enter to apply, start, or continue my F-1 OPT. What should I do?

If you are already approved for OPT, you can continue to work remotely for the duration of their post-completion OPT period.
You can return to the U.S. as long as you have a valid employment authorization and F-1 visa (F-1 OPT falls within the National Interest Exception to travel to the U.S.). Due to the changing nature of the situation, you should refer to your local U.S. embassy website through the U.S. Department of State COVID-19 Traveler Information page for any updates about visa issuance and travel restrictions to the United States.
Students who left the country before applying for OPT should wait for further guidance from the ICE Guidance on COVID-19 as indicated in the most recent SEVP COVID-19 FAQs.

Has anything changed with the OPT application processes?

No. Please go to the ISS Employment page for instructions.

On April 12, 2021, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that F-1 OPT applications can be filed online. However, USCIS has acknowledged that this test release could include glitches or lead to errors in adjudication. Therefore, we encourage students to continue filing OPT and STEM OPT applications by mail until this new filing system has been established.

Students should also discuss urgent OPT and STEM OPT applications with an international student advisor to determine if online filing is a viable option.

What if I cannot be employed within 90 days of my OPT start date?

Post-completion OPT rules have not changed due to COVID-19. If you know that you will exceed the 90-day unemployment time, you should seek other options to continue to maintain F-1 status. These options include: departing the U.S., transferring to a new school or new academic program, or seeking a change of visa status.

What if I have already applied for my post-completion OPT. Will my OPT processing be delayed due to the COVID-19 situation?

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) still continues to perform duties that do not involve face-to-face contact with the public, and has not announced any further delays on the processing of OPT applications. USCIS has indicated that individuals may still submit applications and petitions during this time. You may track the status of your application or submit a Case Status inquiry online at https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do. For general I-765- Application processing times, you can Check Case Processing Times.

I am on F-1 OPT or OPT STEM Extension and I am working remotely. Is that OK? Do I need to report my remote work?

SEVP guidance indicates that students can engage in remote employment for the duration of the COVID-19 emergency and until further notice. In addition, you do not have to update the employer address information in SEVIS or on the Form I-983 if you are working remotely.

I have been furloughed or laid off. What happens now?

You may use available unemployment time to cover the unemployment gap. However, you should still continue to make efforts to seek employment in order to maintain F-1 status and avoid exceeding the 90-day unemployment limit.

What’s the difference between being furloughed and being laid off?

The main difference between being furloughed and laid-off is the employment relationship between the employee and the employer. In both cases, you are not getting paid. Generally, furloughed means your job may be reinstated after a certain timeframe. Being laid off means your employment has ended. Read this Huffington Post article for a full detailed explanation.

How do days of unemployment impact my OPT or STEM Extension?

From the moment that a student is officially without a job and ends the employee relationship with the employer, the student will accrue unemployment time. The SEVP definition of unemployment time is “each day (including weekends) during the period when OPT authorization begins and ends that the student does not have qualifying employment counts as a day of unemployment.”

Am I eligible for unemployment benefits if I am furloughed or laid-off from my OPT?

There are no clear answers to this question. However, SEVP guidance has indicated that students should contact their local or state employment agency for information on whether or not they are allowed to accept unemployment benefits.

I am a J-1 student and my Academic Training employment has been terminated due to COVID-19. What can I do?

Exchange Students: Contact your advisor, Vannara.Schlesinger@csulb.edu to update your Academic Training status.
