My potential future employers have told me that because Korean Immigration is getting very picky, that I should have EXACTLY matching names on my passport, sealed transcripts, and graduation diploma.

In my case, my passport and sealed transcripts are fine: First Name- Full Middle Name-Family Name.

But my diploma has First Name- Middle Initial- Family Name.

Has anyone ever had a problem with this? VERY picky!! Evil or Very Mad

TIA.

Thx cdnhawk:

that is a much cheaper alternative than getting a new Diploma from my university. Good idea.

I see now in the FAQ Sticky, that eamo did indeed have this problem in the past. His solution was also a letter from his uni.
