I've renewed with my school and I need to extend my E-2 visa for one year. Can I do it online?

If so, do I just fill out the "Extension of stay for registered foreigners" e-application at http://www.hikorea.go.kr , pay, and get my new visa card in the mail?

No, you need to submit OTHER documents as well (from your school - things like: a new contract, sponsorship form, school business registration) as well as your passport, ARC, application and fee.

OK. Thank you for the prompt reply.

What time is the Immigration Office in Incheon open 'til?

Incheon is a little far for me. I'm doing camps, so I don't think I would get there very early. If I get there 30 minutes before they close, will they let stay there after hours to renew my visa, or will they kick me out at closing time?

If you are in line before the doors close you get processed the same day.

They don't kick you out.

Unfortunately, no. You can't. Don't even try to submit a criminal record check. I learned that the hard way.
