Departmental E-form Requests

In order to request consideration for Permanent Residence on behalf of a new or current foreign employee, the hiring department must submit an electronic request (e-form) through the iStart system.  After the e-form request is submitted, the hiring department contact person will receive a faxed cover sheet via email from INTLSERV.  The cover sheet will provide instructions regarding documents to be faxed to OIS to use in review of the e-form request.  OIS will review the e-form request and supporting documentation and follow up with the department and the international employee via email with guidance regarding the Permanent Residence request.

Departmental access to the iStart system can be requested at istart.iu.edu.  After departmental access is granted, an email confirmation will be generated directing the department to the online e-form.
