CHAPTER 367 An Act to amend the Code of Virginia by adding a section numbered 23-2.2, relating to reporting of certain students who have been issued student visas. [H 364] Approved April 1, 2002

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That the Code of Virginia is amended by adding a section numbered 23-2.2 as follows:

§ 23-2.2. Reporting of certain students issued student visas.

Each public and private two- and four-year institution of higher education in the Commonwealth and the governing board, president, or director of any correspondence school, postsecondary school, or proprietary career school, as defined in § 22.1-319, or flight school in the Commonwealth shall inform the Attorney General of the Commonwealth whenever a student who has been accepted for admission to such an educational institution pursuant to a student visa fails to enroll or who has been attending such an educational institution pursuant to a student visa and withdraws at such institution or violates the terms of his visa. The notification shall contain all available information from the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service form I-20 and shall be submitted not later than thirty days after the discovery of the reportable event.

The Attorney General shall notify the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service and other appropriate national, state, and local agencies of any such failure to enroll, withdrawal, or student visa violations.

This section shall be effective until superceded by federal action.
