In Work and Travel, SEVIS ( Student and Exchange Visitor Information System) is the system that records the information of foreign students who go to the United States with student or exchange programs, and monitors their transactions in the United States.
The number that starts with ‘’N00’’ at the top right of your DS-2019 legal working document is your SEVIS ID.
After paying the SEVIS fee of 35 USD to your company, this fee is paid to the USA for you and a receipt is received. The SEVIS Receipt is among the documents you will take for the visa and must be shown when entering the United States.
You can activate your SEVIS by performing the SEVIS Check-In within 3 days of your arrival in the USA. The SEVIS Check-In must be done on the sponsor page, detailed in the Pre-American Compliance Orientation.
