I have just arrived in Yongmun and need to go to immigration to change my address on my waeguk card. I have a couple of questions about this, so if someone has any answers I would appreciate it.

1/ do I need anything from my new school to change the address? official documents etc?

2/ Where is the nearest immigration office to Yongmun, my handler says Suwon but that seems a little far. Is it Suwon?
thanks in advance

Ask your school which one is closest. I am thinking Seongnam District Office is the closest, but they don't list Gyeonggido for the jurisdiction.

Failing that, just go to the Suwon. Bring something to read. It will be a wait.

If all you're doing is changing your address, you don't have to go to immigration. You can change your address at your local Gu office.

Incheon does not do Gyeonggi-do anymore. I just went last week and they sent me to Ansan.
