Hi guys;
Two quick questions.

1) My employer purchased a return ticket before I came to korea. Now I have decided to stay past the year but at a different school. My contract says that they provide airfair to and from korea.
So the question is, am I gonna be barking up the wrong tree if im looking for cash instead of said ticket??

2) It is my understanding that my employer must provide me with a tax receipt when I finish my employment with them. Will my bonus be included on this receipt??

Thanks in advance

1) Forget it. They have to give you a ticket home. They don't have to give you the cash equivalent. I doubt they're going to give you anything they don't have to.

2) I would imagine so. Your bonus is part of your income and has to be reported like all your other earnings.

Someone at my school got the cash instead of the ticket. So, I don't know what your school is like, but it is possible.
