3. You Must Arrive to the Employer on your DS2019 Form
You MUST arrive to the employer listed on your DS-2019 form no later than the program start date
listed on the DS-2019. Simply not arriving to the employer on the DS-2019 form is not acceptable
and will result in PROGRAM TERMINATION. Any requests for special arrangements (such as a late
arrival) need to be approved by Spirit BEFORE your arrival in the USA.
4. Validate your Program within 7 Days of Arrival in the US
Be sure to submit a SEVIS Update form through the online Participant Support Center within 7 days
of your arrival in the US. Doing so will validate your program in SEVIS. Failure to meet this 7 day
deadline will result in PROGRAM TERMINATION. If you submit incomplete information on your SEVIS
Update form, Spirit will email you for corrections before validation. Check your email daily until you
receive email confirmation that your SEVIS Update is processed and your program validated.
