Fall Update From TFT Headquarters

Greetings TFT Family! If you are joining us for another year, welcome back! If you are new to the fold, welcome – we are grateful you’re here. We have hit the ground running in preparation for our upcoming Winter programs and Summer 2025 and are ready to help you be prepared as well!

You can expect a monthly update shared during the first full week of the month from December until June 2025.

The goal of our monthly updates is to present to you key information relevant to the time of the year and a centralized place for general information that will help you and your teen prepare for their program.

Our Parent Portal

MyTFT

MyTFT, also known as the parent portal, will be your one-stop shop for all trip-related tasks and information. In it, you can currently find your paperwork and trip tasks, invoice, and transportation details. If you have multiple travelers, you can find them all in your account!

In the coming months, your MyTFT account will show optional trip add-ons if the program has them, a detailed itinerary and visa or waiver information (if applicable). We’ll continue to update you as more items are available!

Paperwork

Our paperwork consists of a packet sent via DocuSign and forms to be uploaded directly into your MyTFT account. When accessing the DocuSign paperwork, there will be a webform to complete first. The information input in that form will auto populate into the packet!

To complete the rest of the paperwork, forms will need to be completed and/or uploaded directly into the parent portal. After logging in, navigate to the traveler’s trip page and you will see ‘Traveler Tasks’. All tasks will have due dates. If you have any questions or need more time with a task, feel free to reach out to our Client Service team at help@travelforteens.com or call 888-457-4534!

Check out our Webinars!

Our Client Service & Logistics teams are holding monthly webinars until the new year! Once 2025 comes around, these webinars will be bi-weekly! Come meet some of the team members that you’ll likely be speaking to in the upcoming months.

These sessions provide general information about paperwork, insurance, flights, payments, and other frequently asked questions. If you attend and have questions, a survey is sent out two hours after the webinar and you can request additional information there! Our team will answer your questions within 24-48 hours.

We strongly suggest that all of our families schedule a welcome call with our Client Service team after registering, whether you’re an alum family or new to the fold we’re here to help! During this call, one of our team members can answer any questions you have. Don’t have specific questions? That’s okay!
