Flying back to the US after winter break? Documents students must carry to avoid secondary inspection

International students returning to the US after winter break must carry proper documentation to avoid secondary inspection at ports of entry. Key documents include a valid passport, F-1 visa, and Form I-20 with a current travel signature. Supporting documents such as financial proof, enrollment verification, SEVIS fee receipt, and OPT-related paperwork are recommended. Secondary inspection may occur if documents are missing or SEVIS records are updated. Recent policy changes affect visa applicants and social media requirements.
