International students and scholars must report a change of address to UFIC and UF within 10 days of any move.
Reporting a Change of Address to UF
Students and Exchange Visitors must report a change in home address to the University of Florida each time a move occurs. Do this by loging into their account at https://one.uf.edu/directoryprofile using the Gatorlink username and password. All Personal Addresses needs to be updated.
UF users have to mantain the following addresses from this section in ONE.UF:
- Street Adress
- Mailing Address
- Legal Address
To meet the federal requirements to keep the home address up-to-date, the Street Address must be the actual PHYSICAL address in the US where the student/exchange visitor lives. This address CANNOT be PO Box address; and it must be a address within the U.S. (not international/foreign address).
To update your US address with UFIC, follow these instructions:
- Go to https://one.uf.edu/directoryprofile/
- Sign in using the Gatorlink Username and Password
- Click on Edit next to the Street Address, in the Personal Address section
- 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 US address. - 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 and scholars 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 on their own fields.
