I know this has bee probably asked before, but if I give the pension office all of my account details in Canada and show the pension office a one way ticket out of Korea to a different country, such as Thailand, then return to Korea a week later with a tourist visa. Will they still process your pension and put the money in your account my account in Canada? |

YES.
As long as your ARC was turned in (or visa expired/canceled, etc).

Does the school need to cancel my visa? Can I cancel it myself? They already said they would provide me with a letter of release. However, the letter is basically useless because I don't have a notorized copy of my degree yet. |

As long as you hand in your ARC as you pass through passport control on your way through the airport you will be fine.

I called the pension office. They said to provide a copy of a one way flight out of Korea ARC and passport and banking information. My employer is ending my contract early so this may pose a problem. If I submit a letter of release to immigration with an exit order that should be enough proof to show them I am leaving Korea, right?
Also they said I had two options.
1 give them my Canadian bank info and they will tranfer the funds.
2. I have the option of taking a cash lumpsum at the airport. ( this one surprized me) |
