最近我发现一些没有付SEVIS费的学生签证申请。对于所有计划赴美的学生们，你们知道什么是SEVIS费吗？你们是否已经支付了SEVIS费？SEVIS全称是学生和交流访问者信息系统。申请J1签证的交流访问者和申请F1签证的学生都要在到达美国之前支付SEVIS费。请打印你的I-901付款收据并携带此收据前来面谈。F1学生SEVIS费目前是200美元，J1交流访问者SEVIS费目前是180美元（互惠生和实习生的SEVIS费不同于学生和交流访问者）。你们所申请的美国学校或许已经解释了这一过程，如需了解更多有关信息请浏览该网站www.fmjfee.com。提醒你们需要记住一点，如果你还没有支付SEVIS费，你的学生签证就不能被批准。

I've had a few student cases lately where the student had not paid the SEVIS fee.  So, for all you intending students out there, do you know what SEVIS is?  Have you paid your SEVIS fee?  SEVIS stands for the Student Exchange Visitor Information System.  J1 exchange visitors and F1 students are required to pay the SEVIS fee before arriving in the United States.  Please print out your I-901 payment receipt and bring it to your visa interview.  It currently costs $200 for F1 students and $180 for J1 exchange visitors (the rates are different for au pairs and interns).  While your school in the U.S. has probably also explained this process, please try this website for more information: www.fmjfee.com.  Remember, your student visa cannot be approved if you have not paid your SEVIS fee.
