Change of Address


Report Change of Address

International students must report a change of address to UFIC and UF within 10 days of any move.

Reporting a Change of Address to UF

F-1 Students must report a change in home address to the University of Florida each time a move occurs. Do this by logging into your account at ONE.UF using your Gatorlink username and password. All Personal Addresses need to be updated.

UF users must maintain the following addresses from this section in ONE.UF:

  • Street Address
  • Mailing Address
  • Legal Address

To meet the federal requirements to keep the home address updated, the Street Address must be the actual PHYSICAL address in the US where the student lives. This address CANNOT be a P.O. Box address, and it must be an address within the U.S. (not an international/foreign address).

To update your US address with UFIC, follow these instructions:

  1. Go to ONE.UF
  2. Sign in using the Gatorlink Username and Password
  3. Click on Edit next to the Street Address, in the Personal Address section
  4. Enter the entire street address, including your apartment number, in the "Address Line 1" box of the Street Address (read the section below to learn about the proper U.S. Street Address format). City, State, and Postal Code (Zip Code) must be entered on their own fields.
    This information should show within 48 hours in our system (ISSS) as your U.S. address.
  5. Click "submit". 

Proper U.S. Street Address format

The address provided in the UF Directory will be used by the International Center to update the address information for students in the SEVIS system. Street addresses in the U.S. typically follow a standard format. To avoid having errors and to avoid having an address update rejected by SEVIS, refer to the following examples for the proper address format. City, State, and Postal Code (Zip Code) must be entered in their own fields.
