Hi All.

I just wanted to see if anyone has ever faced this issue before...

I was offered a job in South Korea at the end of May to start in Aug. I had all my documents ready to go BUT then I found out my FBI background check couldn't be notarized as easily as my other documents so I had to send it off to get notarized by FBI. That took about 10 days.

Then I had to send it to DC to get apostilled. It is now July 27th and I still haven't gotten it back! I have called the Secretary of State, I have hired an agency to go and pick up my document...still nothing. In the meantime, there are no jobs in Seoul with my program. (I was hired with EPIK) I can be placed in a smaller town but don't really want that.

I'm just upset and wanted to share..anyone else face this?
So now what do I do? Do I start over looking? UGGG!

Dear deniserita,

You really need to post this on the Korean board (which requires a separate registration.)
