Hello I have been trying to find out how I can get my Korean pension back but I�m not having much luck. A year ago, I sent forms to the Canadian Pension office (service Canada) and I contacted them today and they said that my forms were mailed to Korea.

They also said that�s the only thing they could have done with them. I mailed forms to the Korean Pension office in Seoul about 6 months ago and received odd emails from them that they were returning my forms because I can�t apply for pension that way by mailing forms to them but didn�t explain anything else to me. The only way I could have applied was by mail because I live in Canada now and can�t go in person to the Korean office.

So, I asked the Canadian pension office today if the Korean office would contact them and they said they doubt it, so I asked well how will I know what the status of my application is and they said I would have to contact them but I won�t be able to explain this situation in Korean to them and most, if not all employees at the Korean office don�t speak English well enough to help me or understand the problem. So I sent an email to the embassy in seoul today but I can't see them helping me so it looks like I was screwed again by the last hogwan i worked for. So now I don�t know what to do to find out how I can get my pension. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
