|
|
Does anyone know how strict schools are with CBC's? Because of the new visa requirements for a nationwide CBC, I think my arrest for a DUI (in a different state) will show up on the results. Its currently pending and I'm fighting to get the charge to wet wreckless driving. But I noticed on the EPIK application there was a question specifically for being charged or convicted of a major offense, including alcohol based ones. I wasn't sure if I should mark it as yes or no.
Any advice? Will I get denied a visa because of this? Are private school more lenient? |

It is not the schools who even look at the CBC, it is immigration.
If it shows on your record you will be denied a visa (or visa renewal).

Hey ttompatz, could you answer a question for me...
When exactly does Korean Immi look at the CBC. It's just that I sent off my documents on monday and it expires on Oct 17th (a few days before I start my contract).
I have a new CBC (got it today) and can send it again if needs be, but it would just be a whole lot more hassle.
Thanks in advance! |

They look at it the day it lands on the desk of the immigration officer when the school applies for your visa confirmation number.
