Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS) has established a new Form G-325R Alien Registration Form to comply with Executive Order 14159: Protecting the American People Against Invasion.
Most international students, scholars, faculty, and staff have already met this requirement by having a valid U.S. visa at their time of entry to the U.S. and were issued an I-94 Arrival Record. You can learn more about your I-94 record and how to print your most recent I-94 to prove your “alien registration.” Carry a printed copy of your I-94 with you when you travel off campus.
Who Must File Form G-325R?
- The parent or legal guardian of any dependent of an international student, scholar, faculty, and staff under the age of 14 who was not issued an I-94 Arrival Record and has remained in the U.S. for more than 30 days.
- Form G-325R must be filed before the 30 days expires.
- Any dependent of an international student, scholar, faculty, and staff member who turns age 14 after they entered the U.S.
- Form G-325R must be filed within 30 days of the dependent’s 14th birthday.
- Any alien who did not enter on a U.S. visa, does not have an I-94 Arrival Record, and has remained in the U.S. for more than 30 days.
- Form G-325R must be filed before the 30 days expires.
Read the full details under the “Who Must File” and “How to Determine if You are Already Registered” tabs on the USCIS Alien Registration webpage.
How Do I File Form G-325R?
Form G-325R is only available online. It cannot be submitted by mail. You must create a USCIS online account before filing Form G-325R.
Step-by-step instructions are found under the “How to Register” tab on the USCIS Alien Registration webpage.
On January 20, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order 14161 directing the U.S. Secretary of State and others to submit a report “identifying countries throughout the world for which vetting and screening information is so deficient as to warrant a partial or full suspension on the admission of nationals from those countries” by March 21, 2025. This is developing information.
While there have been media reports speculating which countries might be subject to a future travel ban, the U.S. government has not issued any active travel bans as of March 18, 2025.
What you can do:
- Check the status of countries through the U.S. Statement Department.
- Consider whether any travel outside of the U.S. during spring break could prevent your return to your university for the remainder of the spring semester.
