Anybody on a marriage visa (F6) that quit a job but kept their ARC and collected pension from previous jobs?
I would like to collect but keep my visa status, which expires in 2017. Whether or not I get another job, that's my business, but I want to collect from my current (soon to be ex) job without losing my f6. And yes, I will be leaving the country for 5-8 months before returning once my job ends in June. |

Yes, you would need a multiple-entry visa and an e-2 or a d-10 are both multiple entry. |
Oh really? That surprises me. I remember traveling out of Korea years ago and needing to get a multiple entry beforehand. I was on an E2 then. I could be mistaken, but that's certainly the way I remember it. |

Seems Americans automatically get a multiple entry visa. Mine is not  |

I'd also like to know this! I'm on an F6, left my job in February so have not payed into pension since then. I have over 13 million won in my account and would really love to collect it on my way to Canada this summer. Will I be able to collect the money at the airport and not have to give up my visa? Would love advice from anyone on an F6 who has done this. |

I have a similar situation. I would also like to know if it is possible to collect accumulated pension on an F6 without giving up my visa (In other words, leaving the country for a bit, getting the pension amount, and then coming back to Korea with the F6 visa still intact and usable).
Considering how few people have responded, I'm not holding out any hope. My guess is, it's not possible to get the pension without canceling your visa on exit. However, it would definitely be nice if it were possible. |

I read about someone doing it on an F6 but was hoping there were others so I'm not just going off one guy's experience. Since someone else in this thread did it on a D10, I don't see why it wouldn't work on an F6. I think I'm going to give it a shot in July. But if anyone else tries before then, I would love to hear about it! |

OK, we talked to a friend who also happens to be an attorney (commercial/investment law, so not exactly his field). He told us that pension and immi do not necessarily communicate, esp concerning 'permanent residents', ie F5/6s. Doing business with one doesn't alert the other. He recommended we file with the pension office and ask to collect using my existing Korean bank once I've been released from employment. Whether or not I'll actually get approved is up to the pension officer we deal with at the time. (LEt's hope he's not suffering from a too massive soju hangover and/or has gotten laid in the last week or so!)
When I leave Korea and immi asks "Are you planning on returning to Korea", just say yes and keep the ARC. You have 364 days from departure to reenter Korea with the valid visa/ARC card before it becomes void, at least for the f6s.
I have collected pension in the past while still in Korea and in a new job with a different pension office. (Went from public to private pension about 10 years ago). No reason to think it's any different now, but we'll see.... |

So I've gone to the NPS and applied for airport payment.
I was given a pamphlet on how to recieve the airport lump sum.
Under "How to Recieve" Step 1-
Hand in forms of "Application for Lump-sum Refund" and "Application for lump-sum refund at the airport"- Is this what I did at the regional NPS office? the only paperwork I seem to have is "certificate of acceptance of application for lump-sum refund"
Step 2- Recieve "Statement of lump-sum refund" and "Direction for paymet of lump-sum refund" from the airport office after handing in the" "filing reciept" is this the same as the "certificate of acceptance of application for lump-sum refund" ? Cause that's all I got.
The following steps seem pretty straight forward as any paperwork is given to you at the airport.
Someone please enlighten me. I need this cash. I really can't wait a month for it to be deposited in my account.
Thanks guys! |

That is a good question.
I have one, regarding this "Certificate of Employment"...
If someone wants to leave before the end of the contract...can one still collect pension? Basically, if someone is pulling a runner, is that lack of Certificate of Employment going to be a barrier? |
