1) Degree. Not sure if just verifying the Original by the KCUE is still an option or do I need to go through the whole get a copy notarised and apostilled?

If the latter, then notarised copies by the British Council here in Seoul and then sent back home via my parents to get the apostille done by the FCO. Best option?

2) CBC. Ok, seems I need a new CBC for a new school and E-2 visa?
I've always gone the Subject Access route as I don't need to get it notarised first. Last time, I got the British Embassy in Seoul to attest to it but that option seems out now.

So, also sending my Subject Access down to the FCO seems the only way now?

Any other comments from other Brits?


1. Try ringing the KCUE to find out the current status. Other than that, best option would be to send your degree back to the UK and have it apostilled in the UK. The BC in Seoul charges 60,000w for five notarised copies.

2. There is a private option (sorry, can't remember what the company is called) but it is ridiculously pricey. The FCO is pretty much the only way to get it done.


Yeah! Cheers for that. It's just ridiculous that we've got to go through the whole process again when our degrees have been checked and verified before for previous visa applications.

What's the point of a new UK CBC when I've only been home for a week in 18 months. A Korean background check would make more logical sense.
