I'm being a big stress head at the mo and would LOVE some advice from anyone with prior experience. I want to quit my job and change schools (as i mentioned in another post) but I'm really confused as to 'how' I do this.
Firstly, I believe my boss has my documents, but I'm not sure and don;t want to ask him as it will arouse suspicion. How do I find out?
Should I find a new job first, then tell him I'm leaving and presume he'll hand over the documents?? and won;t the new school or hogwan contact him?? i know he's going to screw me out of money, but because i've been here for 5 months this month (6 in Jan when i'm hoping to leave) does that mean i have to leave korea on an exit order and wait for a new visa or can i directly transfer to the new school? As i won't be able to afford to leave and return....
the whole process is mind boggling to me, i have no foreign friends here to talk to or help me so i;m really confused. ideally, i'd like to get a new job sorted secretly and simply disapear from the school quietly without giving notice, it's bad enough without having to work a month when he knows i'm leaving :-S but i'm presuming that is impossible.
please help me!!!

I don't think you can do it secretly, to get a visa for a new school you will need to get your current visa cancelled.

For the documents if he has your degree cert then tell him you are looking at postgrad stuff after Korea and need it back for that. I think immigration have your police and medical checks.
