What DS 7002 is and how it works
DS 7002 is the Training/Internship Placement Plan used to document an exchange visitor’s structured training or internship placement in the United States. It records the host organization, placement objectives, supervision, activities, and evaluation details that participants review before signing. In signNow, upload the DS 7002 PDF, check its detected fields, add missing signature or date fields, and assign the exchange visitor, sponsor, and host organization signers. Each recipient completes assigned fields, while signNow preserves the signed document and audit trail for the sponsor’s records.
Business types that use DS 7002
DS 7002 is most useful where sponsors, host organizations, and exchange visitors must review the same placement plan before signing.
Exchange visitor sponsors use DS 7002 templates to standardize placement plans, assign signer roles, and retain completed records for program administration across multiple host organizations. Host organizations use DS 7002 to review training objectives, supervision arrangements, and evaluation responsibilities before confirming the placement with an electronic signature. Large program administrators can route DS 7002 documents through shared templates, delegated sending, and controlled user permissions when multiple coordinators manage exchange visitor placements.
These tasks are executed by both individual contributors and centralized administrators depending on organizational policy and required controls.
How the DS 7002 workflow works
The DS 7002 workflow converts the placement plan into a controlled signing sequence while preserving the document and its completion history.

Legal standing of signed DS 7002 records
A signed DS 7002 can provide an electronic record of the parties’ intent, consent, attribution, and completed placement information under ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. chapter 96, and applicable state law, including UETA or New York ESRA. These frameworks do not replace program-specific Department of State requirements or exclude documents requiring notarization, wills, or court filings.

DS 7002 troubleshooting questions
Resolve field, routing, authentication, legal, plan, and record-preservation questions before sending DS 7002 for signature.
Upload the official DS 7002 PDF rather than creating an unverified substitute. On the Business plan, signNow supports templates, legally binding eSignatures, and audit trails. Confirm that every required placement section is present before assigning signers.
Open the document in signNow and review the automatically detected fillable fields. Add signature, initials, date, and text fields where the source PDF lacks them. Test the recipient view before sending so each participant sees only the information and fields assigned to them.
The Business plan is listed at $8 per user per month with annual billing and includes audit trails and templates. Business Premium adds bulk send at $15 per user per month annually. Choose a plan based on placement volume and routing requirements.
Use assigned recipients, signing order, and signer authentication options to identify the exchange visitor, sponsor representative, and host organization contact. For stronger attribution, add SMS authentication or another available control, then retain the audit trail with the completed plan.
ESIGN and UETA recognize electronic signatures when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention requirements are satisfied. For consumer-facing electronic records, 15 U.S.C. §7001(c) requires an appropriate disclosure and access to the electronic format. Check program-specific rules separately.
Export the completed DS 7002 and its audit trail after the final signature. signNow records signing actions and timestamps, but the sponsor remains responsible for applying the retention period and document controls required by the exchange visitor program or other applicable authority.
