|
|
I am transferring schools and want to negotiate a higher salary based on the fact that the school is not going to pay for any visa paperwork. I will go back to the states for a while and then the new school will pay for my ticket to Korea to start work.
So, how much does just the visa paperwork cost? |

Since you have to have your visa transferred to the new school, there is about the same paperwork and fees, so no savings. Just the visa paperwork is quite minimal anyway - under $100 generally - plus a bit of time and travel which Koreans tend to undervalue anyway. |

If you're going to negotiate on the basis of the cost of "visa paperwork", I assume your qualifications and experience are minimal. Don't expect much of a raise.  |
