Can I get an invitation letter to obtain funding without being registered?

No. The email with the acceptance of your paper should be used to apply for funding. The purpose of an invitation letter is to get a visa. Only if you register for your paper, we will issue an invitation letter.

What is a student paper?

A paper with the first named author being a student is a student paper. It does not matter whether the rest of the authors are students or not.

What does the word "member" and "non-member" refers to?

This refers to membership of the IEEE. If you are a member of the IEEE, you get a member registration.

For IJCNN, members of INNS may also register as a member registration.

Can I register as a student?

Each accepted paper requires a full member or non-member registration. After this full registration is paid, other student authors can register as students.

I have 3 papers with my students at the Congress. How should I register them?

First, you should register as a full member or non-member. This will entitle you to 2 papers. You then pay the extra fees for the 3rd paper on top of the 2 you are entitled for. In this example, you will need to pay $300 USD for the 3rd paper. Then, your students can register as students.
