|
|
If my contract expires May 13th and the visa on May 20th. Can I get a visa extension, without a criminal check because I won't be working, just waiting for another contract in the near future, while in Korea.
If I get a contract before May 20th, I can get my visa transferred to a new school with all of the documents. Right? |

If you are retarded, even slightly, or have a medical mental problem, Korea won't let you have an E-2 visa.
Sorry, can't help your real question. |

Is the new school a Public School? |

I've just booked my visa extension appointment on 'hi korea'. It was very easy, impressive!
I want to get another multiple visa, as a British citizen, I've heard we are exempt from paying for it. If this is untrue, how much will I have to pay for a multiple visa?
Thanks. |

Re-entry permits are free for citizens of the UK.
You can apply for a multi-re-entry permit when you update your ARC at the local immigration office
OR
you can single re-entry permits at the airport each time you travel.

Tomorrow, I'm going to extend my visa. I've just been asked to buy a ticket a plane ticket for when I return to England, tomorrow.
My co-teacher said she will o.k. it with the Principal, which means on Thursday, I'll have the day off work.
I've got to enjoy it, because I never get free days off school, like those who work at middle/high school seem to get. |

When you get the visa extension aren't they supposed to stamp your passport and update the ARC, or is it just the ARC date they update?
I'm concerned about this when I fly out to England. If I show my ARC at the airport will that suffice? |
