Immigration

The Office of Administrative Affairs is the college liaison to the University of Florida Immigration Compliance Services (ICS). The University of Florida has retained the law firm Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy, LLP to handle the university’s immigrant and non-immigrant visa petitions. Employment authorizations include H, TN, O, and E-3 visa status. For F or J visa status, please visit the UF International Center.

Note: University of Florida policy does not permit private attorneys to submit immigration related petitions or applications on its behalf. University of Florida employees are not authorized to sign the Notice of Appearance as Attorney or Representative (Form G-28), which grants authority to an attorney to act on all aspects of immigration on behalf of the University; accordingly, University of Florida employees are prohibited from attempting to grant such permission. All applications and petitions associated with University of Florida sponsored nonimmigrant statuses must be submitted by ICS/HRS.
