Third-Party Funding means the F-1 or J-1 is NOT one of the individual account holders. The account holders may be family members, friends, a family business, or any other individuals WHO ARE NOT government agencies, major corporations, or other sponsoring organizations.
Third-party funding documents must be accompanied by either an ISSS Declaration of Financial Support Form completed and signed by one of the account holders or a signed letter from one of the account holders stating that the F-1 or J-1 may use the funds from the submitted financial document(s) for their program expenses.
Note for Business Accounts: If the name of the account holder who is identified on the financial support form or letter submitted to ISSS is NOT listed on the financial document for the business account, then ISSS will also need to receive a letter from the business/company on official letterhead to confirm that they are willing to sponsor the F-1 or J-1.
All Third-Party Funding documents must comply with the Basic Requirements for All Financial Documents.
