Program Extension Instructions

Find instructions for extending your program.

Complete the following steps to extend your program. Intrax will not approve incomplete applications.

  1. Complete the Extension Application Form and e-mail it to intsupport@intraxinc.com.

  2. Complete the Training Plan Drafting Guide and e-mail it to intsupport@intraxinc.com.

    • Intrax will review and revise the training plan after you submit it. Please ensure that the document you submit can be edited.

    • The updated plan must include new, unique phases that demonstrate a progression of your training.

  3. Submit payment online with a credit card.

    • Intrax will email an invoice upon receipt of the completed Extension Application Form.

    • The extension fee is $500 + $65/month for health insurance.

    • We will also collect $100/month for each J-2 dependent (if applicable) to extend their health insurance.

    • Applications received fewer than ten days before your program end date will incur a rush-processing fee of $250 in addition to the standard extension fee.

  4. Intrax will email you and your supervisor an updated DS-7002 (training plan) for your electronic signatures. Complete this promptly to avoid delays.

  5. Intrax will update your program end date in SEVIS and email your DS-2019 form for you to download and print. IMPORTANT: After printing the DS-2019 form, sign the bottom of page 1.

Important:

  • Intrax cannot grant an extension after your original Form DS-2019 has expired.

  • Submit your Extension Application Form and Training Plan to Intrax around one month before your current program end date.

  • The extension period must begin immediately after your current Form DS-2019 expires.

  • Extensions are not guaranteed and are based on the strength of the rationale for the extension.

  • If your extension is denied, or if you cancel it before the extension period begins, the fees will be refunded to you, minus a nonrefundable administrative fee of $100.

    • Once your extension period has begun, no refund will be issued.
