Hi All,

Sorry I don't even know where to begin finding an answer to this. I'm sure it was discussed somewhere so forgive the repetition.

I am finishing up my contract at the beginning of April and would like to start a new job with a new school right away.
I'm not sure, however of the process as I've always left for at least a few months.

Can I start the visa application process for a new school before my current visa expires ( like in march)?

Another query I have is regarding transferring your visa from one employer to another.
I read here a few days ago that a visa can be transferred after the 9 month mark (if I understood correctly)
What exactly does this involve and is it easy to do?
Costs?

I'd appreciate any advice
Thanks

It most certainly can. You absolutely need a letter of release from your current school to do this.

Costs involved would be about 30-50,000won.
