Students Requests

Please use this form to request a replacement I-20 or a travel signature. 

Please use this form to request enrollment or SSN letter. 

If you are a new international student, you must complete the F-1 International Student Immigration Check-In prior to request any letter. 

• Please ensure that you use this checklist, provided by the Social Security Office to gather all required original documents and copies for your appointment. Once you have everything gathered, you will book an appointment online in which they require you to make a booking 7-10 days in advance in the day you would like to visit their office. You will not receive a receipt the day of your appointment. You will receive a receipt in the mail a few days after your appointment with confirmation that your SSN is being processed.

Please note that the ISSS Office cannot issue a Social Security Number (SSN). While waiting for their SSN appointment, students who are eligible may request an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) through the appropriate application process, often with guidance from their on-campus employer or the Human Resources Office.

As an F-1 student you must request DSO authorization to take courses at another SEVP-approved institution while enrolled at Texas State University.

Complete the Concurrent/Correspondence Enrollment Form and submit your request on the Concurrent/Correspondence Enrollment Request Portal.

An I-20 Program Extension is used to extend your I-20 end date if you need more time to complete required courses for your program.

Complete the I-20 Program Extension Form, with supporting documentation, and submit your request on the I-20 Program Extension Submission Portal.
