Can I change my address on my ARC at the Yeongtong Gu office in Suwon or do I need to go to immigration ? I have an F5 visa. Thanks in advance.

You should be able to do it at the Gu office.

That is the info I have always been given, but it seems really hit or miss depending on the Gu office. I've been told "sorry, we can't process F visas here" at two different places, even while immigration has told me to go there.

Safe bet? Go to immigration, the F line is always short anyway.

The Dongjak-Gu office could do it and I assume in Seoul all Gu offices should be able to do it.
I live in a smaller city with only two Gu-s and I was told that since there are not a lot of foreigners and the city is not that big, the City Hall handles these matters. Which is just a block away so it was no trouble. Yeongtong-Gu has a lot of foreigners so they should be able to do it. If not, the City Hall is nearby too. There is no need to go to immi.

Is the Yeongtong Gu office near Suwon immigration ? I know immigration is not far from Homeplus, but I'm not sure about the Gu office.

This may be dated, but pretty sure it's on the road that runs behind the Grand/Lotte Department store at the northern end. Maybe a 10 minute walk from Homeplus.

I went to the Gu office today. It is located right before the Samsung Digital Complex entrance. They changed my address on my ARC and drivers license.
