When one Form I-20 is canceled because another Form I-20 has been used, the student's status for the school where the Form was not used becomes canceled. SEVIS will automatically cancel a student's other Initial Form I-20 when the following occurs:
A student initially registers at one school and his/her status changes from Initial to Active.
A student enters the United States using one Form I-20.
A visa is issued to a student based on one Form I-20.
Note: An Initial record with a change of education level request, transfer request, or record of arrival will not be canceled.
