I'm moving from my university to another university. Like most private universities my university does not offer severance pay or put me into the government pension program. I have a private pension.

I was under the impression that this money would be refunded to me when I leave the university (regardless of whether or not I leave Korea). However my university has little experience in these matters so does anyone else have a different experience?

Can I get my money immediately after leaving my current university? Or, do you know what government office I can contact to find out?

Thank you!

Contact the pension company or (unless you read Korean) have a co-worker check the website for the refund procedure.

If you are going to another private university, don't take it out. All of the private unis use the same system.

So there are different pension companies used by different schools? Thanks I didn't know that I will have to look into it.

I wanted to take it out because I need the money I'll have to see if its possible.


Cheers for the help.

If it's a private uni, which almost all of them are, they will be using the ktpf - http://www.ktpf.or.kr:8088/hp/main.jsp
