After 4 years I would suspect it is either lost in the void or is considered too old. I would recommend getting a new paper work just in case. Having it will probably move things along quicker. When dealing with immigration always expect problems. I try to over prepare.

At the least get a new CRC. The degree I would suspect immigration would let slide.

Thanks, this is pretty much what I was thinking. Immigration told me today I wouldn't need it, but I don't really want to risk anything. Thankfully the process for doing this in the UK is really quick and so I should be ok.

I have never applied for public school. From what I can gather some public applications can be a touch more difficult in application. They tend to be more picky and will demand things their way, even if their are other options.

You will also need patience. Sit down and think about what needs to be done. Write it all out, like a little manual. Then edit it and make it easier to understand, enough for a person who speaks simple English and is to lazy to really think.. Because you might just have to explain a few times what is happening and what you think can happen. You might have to the hand holding and leading around yourself.

Good Luck

According to my soon to be new employers, immigration requires a tax certificate from my current employers.

Does anyone know exactly what this is as my boss (who has signed and stamped an LOR etc so is not trying to block my transfer) seems to have no idea what I am asking her for.

Is it a new requirement for transfering Visas or an overeager Immigration department as I have never head of a tax certificate until this week.

Is it true that there's no minimum amount of time worked on a contract before you transfer? It used to be 9 months or 6 months, but now it could be 1 day? Is that true?


Bumping this thread as I have the same question. Does anyone know what the deal is?

*** Question ***

Who pays the immigration fees? Employer or Employee?

I am transferring from D-10 to E-2 (hagwon). They want me to pay the immigration fees but I haven't had to pay them in all three years I've worked here. They've always been covered by the company.

See my reply to your question on the other thread.

The employer is under no obligation to pay it. Many do it as a courtesy. Honestly though, it's not expensive.

Gonna bump this thread as it is over a year old and we all know how finicky immigration can be.

Just want to make sure nothing has changed(or has). Are the 7 documents that ttompatz stated were needed for a transfer from a D-10 to an E2 still the same?

ARC
passport
LOR
new contract
new employers business registration (copy)
new employers guarantee (sponsorship form)
application
fees (60k for the transfer and 30k for the extension when needed)


Sure hope so as I am on a D-10 and was out of the country for 60 days. I didn't bother getting a CRC as I thought that was the point of having the D-10 in the first place.

Can anyone clarify? Especially someone who has transferred recently.

Same boat as wannabe. Just switched to the D10 and about to head home for a few weeks. Does anyone know if it's ok to file for the pension with a D10 ARC? Thanks!

You'll hear different, but it's absolutely possible. You'll have to collect it at the airport on your way home. There's a thread about it. It works.

I collected my pension at the airport a day after applying for my D-10. I asked for a paper stating I was on a D-10 since they took my ARC when applying. Picked up my money at the airport and flew back a day later.

My buddy actually applied for his D-10 and waited waited for his new ARC. Then he also collected his pension at the airport and returned a couple days later.

So both work...but you've got to collect at the airport.
