I have my E2. How long do I have before I have to get my ARC? Is it 90 days?
Thanks. |

Yep. 90 days. I got mine just shy of the 90 day limit. For some reason some people think it's 2 weeks. I do believe if you renew work contract (sign on for another year) you have 2 weeks to get your new visa renewal. |

You have 90 days, but your school needs it to register you with the tax office. They may not be able to pay you until you have it. |

Just go do it. You can't begin the process to get medical insurance until you do. Go early to avoid the lines. It is, or can be, painless. |

The button to push to get the proper waiting ticket is confusing. I always push the wrong one. |

I think that's why my owner's attitude is, "Oh, don't worry about it... you have three months." When I get paid next week, he's going to deduct tax and health insurance, and put it right in his pocket.
So... before I call him on it next week, is it absolutely 100% true that if I don't have my ARC, he can't pay into health insurance or deduct taxes? |

Bingo. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes it's true. Do you have a health card? What are you going to give them when you go to the hospital? A bottlecap? He is putting you in danger. Get on it, right bloody now. |

Believe me, I would have gotten it weeks ago if all I needed was to go down to Daegu with 10,000 won, a couple pictures, and my E2. However, I need something from him, some school Certificate of Registry. I think it's some document that proves he owns a business. I haven't been able to get that yet.
I guess I'd better bring it up again today. |

I doubt that. You wouldn't have gotten the blue form that you took to Immigration in Japan or wherever you were without him being a registered business. They don't grant visas to schools they don't know about. It's a smokescreen. |

Just to clarify, it's not a form, but it's the school's business registration number. I just spoke to the owner, it looks like we'll have this sorted out by next Monday.
Thanks for the responses. |
