While on an E2 visa, is it possible for me to invite someone to come to Korea? Specifically my girlfriend, who is Filipina and on a soon to be expired student visa. A friend of hers said many teachers do this but the details depend on which country you're from.

Filipinas can't enter Korea without being invited/sponsored, even as a tourist apparently.

married = piece of cake and walk in the park.

not married = virtually impossible unless she is from the Ayala family.

You most likely cannot invite someone who is NOT related by blood or marriage.

It is easy to invite your wife (f3) or her parents / immediate family for a visit (c3).

Get her a student visa at a local uni. (but she must attend classes).

It's roughly 1 million per semester.
