Local Address

Keep your address up to date

Providing the Department of Homeland Security with an update of your new address in the United States every time you move is required by law. Each time you move, within 10 days of moving (even within Bloomington), you are required to submit your change of address to the Office of International Services, which must update your address in SEVIS.

As an F-1 student, this is a straightforward process. If you change your “Local” address in One.IU, the Office of International Services is notified that you have updated or added a “Local” address, and we will then submit your address change in SEVIS.

Do I have to update my address while on OPT?

Yes, you are still required to update your address within 10 days of moving, each time you move. Log in to One.IU to update your local address!

Change your address now

You do not need to update your local address if you live on campus. It will be updated automatically.

How to update or add your local address

Log on to One.IU
Search for and open Personal Information
In the Addresses section, click "Add Future Address" and select "Local"
Enter your new local address information
Click Save
If there is an incorrect "Local" address listed, click the pencil icon to edit your address and then click Save

Be sure to enter a local address, because that is the address that will be sent to SEVIS. “Local” refers to the address where you live in the United States.

If you find that you are unable to update or add your “Local” address in One.IU, you may log in to Atlas and submit an e-form to update your local address. But begin with One.IU before submitting your request to Atlas.
