So I'm heading to Canada for a couple of weeks and will be returning with the wife and 2 kids. I've heard that F5 visa holders can stand in the Korean Only lines at immigration. If true this would be really helpful since the family could stay together.

Can anyone with an F5 visa and recent travel experience confirm this for me?

I only have the f-2-1 but I know you can stand in the Korean only line. My good friend has an f-5 and tells me all the time the greatness of it. So just do it.

I have an F-5 and I have used the Korean citizen line many times. It is often faster and your family can stay together.

Because of our mixed family members I take them through the pilots' and flight attendants' booth. Well, what of it, there is one for foreigners, one for Koreans, so I said, 'Where does my family fit in?' So, no problem they said and got through very quickly.

Excellent - all good news.

Hehe.. when I came back last week, I went through the desk for diplomats and crew only cos other lines were really busy and the immi officer saw me with a British passport and a Korean passport for my toddler who was running around and I was struggling to keep her in line. He was sympathetic and told me to go through there.

Good luck. I waited 80 minutes to get through immigration last week. My line was extremely slow, and when I asked for the officer's name so I could file a complaint, he refused to show me his badge 5 times. My girlfriend went through the Korean line in 10 minutes
