Determine if there is Already an HCM Record

Start by determining whether the prospective exchange visitor .Use the Transaction Launch page as the platform for searches; it supersedes row level security, department, and campus limitations to allow HCM searches of the entire university, and allows searches by partial data, which makes them much more powerful. 

  • Duplicate records can cause failures in online hiring steps, create tax compliance issues, and may lead to issues accessing university portals (e.g., MyISSS Student/Scholar portal, MyCUinfo).

Record Already Exists in HCM

  • Update the prospective exchange visitor's record as necessary , , , ) to reflect the new exchange visitor program.
    • Departments that are HRSC-supported:
      • Submit a request to HRSC to update the appointment end date update.

Departments that are HRSC-Supported

Departments that are not HRSC-Supported

  • If you will add the yourself, review the resource and take all necessary steps prior to adding the record in HCM.

Previous CU Student or Scholar without Employee ID

If the prospective exchange visitor is already affiliated with the University of Colorado/CU system (previous student or scholar program) and did not previously have an Employee ID:

  • Email the prospective exchange visitor's name, University ID from the previous program, and Employee ID from the HCM record to the ISSS advisor assigned to your department as soon as it is generated so ISSS can add it to the prospective exchange visitor鈥檚 MyISSS profile.
  • The DS-2019 Request cannot be initiated until ISSS adds the Employee ID to the prospective scholar's MyISSS profile.
    • The Employee ID from the HCM record is required to initiate the DS-2019 Request and must be entered on the Host Department Information e-form.

Initiating the DS-2019 Request

Add New Person (Create a MyISSS Profile)

After a position/POI is added in HCM for the prospective exchange visitor, the department administrator can submit the Add New Person e-form (to create a MyISSS profile) for prospective exchange visitors who do not already have a CU affiliation and MyISSS profile. Departments may use the Scholar: Prospective J-1 Exchange Visitor Intake Form to collect information (optional, departments may choose to develop their own forms and processes).

  • Do not submit an Add New Person e-form for individuals already affiliated with the University of Colorado/CU system through a previous student or scholar program.
  • If you have questions about whether or not a record exists for a prospective exchange visitor, contact the ISSS advisor assigned to your department or institute.

Once the prospective exchange visitor has a MyISSS profile, the department can initiate the DS-2019 Request in the Departmental Services Portal.

DS-2019 Request

Completed DS-2019 request paperwork for a new exchange visitor program must be submitted to ISSS at least 3 to 6 months in advance of the desired exchange visitor program start date.

  • It is possible that an exchange visitor program start date may have to be delayed due to timing issues related to internal review procedures, export control licensing (if applicable), and visa acquisition.

Office of Export Controls (OEC) Review

All DS-2019 requests, initial and program extensions, must be reviewedthe Office of Export Controls (OEC)for export control concerns before ISSS can begin processing the request.

  • This initial review can take 5 to 6 weeks and the outcome could require additional steps that can further delay the exchange visitor program start date.

If you are submitting a DS-2019 Request on behalf of a 蜜桃传媒破解版下载 Research Institute (e.g., LASP, CIRES) that has its own internal export control review process, you will have to upload documentation of the completed internal review in the Export Control Review e-form.

The Export Control Review e-form with the internal export control review documentation will be sent to the Office of Export Controls for a final review. 

If the exchange visitor will participate in sponsored research projects, you must include complete project information and a description of the exchange visitor鈥檚 proposed project activities in the Program Information & Details e-form.

The export control review will result in one of the following outcomes:

  1. OEC determines that no export license is required for the proposed exchange visitor program.
    • OEC approves the Export Control Form, and the request is forwarded to ISSS for processing.
       
  2. OEC requires additional information from the sponsor to complete the review. Assuming OEC鈥檚 request is answered promptly, this will typically add 1 to 2 week to the review process before a final determination is made.
    • If it is determined that no license is required, OEC will approve the Export Control Form and the request will be forwarded to ISSS for processing.
    • If a license is required, the request will be processed as described below.
       
  3. OEC determines that the exchange visitor requires an export license from the US government.
    • The departments decided to modify the exchange visitor鈥檚 activities so a federal license is no longer required (since it can take 3 to 6 months to obtain an export license).  
      • OEC will indicate, 鈥淭he exchange visitor's proposed activities will be modified.鈥 on the Export Control Review Form and submit the e-form to ISSS The DS-2019 Request will be set to Draft Status for the department to update. All the DS-2019 Request e-forms will have to be resubmitted again including the Departmental Responsibilities & Attestation e-forms. OEC will review the request again and once OEC provides approval on the Export Control Form, the DS-2019 Request will be forwarded to ISSS for processing.
    • The department requests OEC apply for the export license.
      • OEC will indicate that they will apply for the export license on the Export Control Review Form and submit the e-form to ISSS. ISSS will not process the DS-2019 Request until the license is obtained. OEC will let ISSS know when the license is obtained. The Export Control Form will be set to Draft Status so OEC can mark, 鈥淎n export license has been obtained and this Export Control Review Form is approved.鈥

Immigration regulations require the university to validate the arrival of exchange visitors in J-1 status in the United States in SEVIS within 30 days of the program start date indicated on their DS-2019.  

To meet this requirement, scholars must complete the following e-forms (available in their MyISSS portal in the J-1 Scholar Services section):

  • Exchange Visitor Scholar Orientation & Quiz E-Form
    • Can be completed prior to the DS-2019 start date, but only AFTER arrival in the United States in J-1 status
  • Immigration Check-In E-Form

If an exchange visitor scholar hosted by your department will arrive I the U.S. later than the DS-2019 start date, please contact the ISSS advisor assigned to your department as the scholar's SEVIS record may need to be updated.

Failure to complete the immigration check-in process with ISSS within 30 days of the DS-2019 start date will result in the cancelation of an exchange visitor's SEVIS record and J-1 status in the United States. 

 

This information applies only for the extension of an exchange visitor program/DS-2019 of a scholar currently at CU Boulder.

The DS-2019 Extension e-form group must be completed at least 4-6 weeks in advance of the program end date indicated on the scholar鈥檚 current DS-2019 to allow time to address any export control concerns and for ISSS processing.
