|
|
Hello,
I just received my packet that tells me everything i need for the epik orientation and just found out i will need a residency certificate.
I will fax the application for the certificate tomorrow but after reading the instructions, I found out it COULD take up to 45 days. This means I might not have it before the orientation.
I talked with a person at Korvia recruiting and they said i should just tell the school that I will be receiving it shortly and then submit the certificate to the tax office when i receive it.
I just wanted to verify that this information is correct.
By the way, the US letter of residency is called a form 6166 right? |

Form 6166 is a letter printed on U.S. Department of Treasury stationery certifying that the individuals or entities listed are residents of the United States for purposes of the income tax laws of the United States. |

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) procedure for requesting a certificate of residency (Form 6166) from the Philadelphia Accounts Management Center is the submission of Form 8802, Application for United States Residency Certification (PDF). Use of the Form 8802 is mandatory. |
I'm not in Korea and waiting on my 6166 too, so I have no idea how the tax office in Korea might feel about turning it in later. |
