Status of students living in Israel, for Yom Tov Sheni

Hi,

Students from abroad who are learning in Israel, but who maintain significant connections outside of Israel, are not considered Israelis as far as observance of Yom Tov Sheni. Such connections include parents who are supporting the student and do not intend to continue to support the student in Israel.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 2:101)

מועדים לשמחה,
Mordechai
