What is the tax rate for F-visa holders? I've heard that it is higher (same as Koreans pay) than the tax rate for E-visa holders.

Is your volunteer time written on the back of your ARC? Or did they simply write a letter confirming that you volunteered?

Do my points make sense:

Age - 20 pts

Academic (I have 1 masters and one BA) - is that 20 or 30?

Korean Proficiency - Currently zero but i took YBM test and got a 4/6 so I guess I can ONLY take the S-TOPIK? does anyone have a link?

Income - 5pts

The rest...I can't read the bottom...but what I read about "Korean culture classes" or other things that get points also I did volunteer teaching at Yonsei and have a certificate is this good for anything?

It would be the highest.

Type in TOPIK and that will give you info.

For the volunteering, you'll need to get a specific doc.

Korean culture, you have to go through KIIP.

Thanks...and is it 20 for a masters and then 10 for a BA or just just they count the highest....I feel like it would be weird to give separate points bc you usually have to have a BA to get an MA....lol

JUST the highest one. So no points for your BA, just your MA.
