This likely applies to some other people as well. I asked about it in another thread but didn't really get an answer.
I'm American but went to university in Canada. From what I've seen of the new law, it specifies that you need to get your diploma apostilled or verified in your home country. See below:
From 2010.9.1 when you get visa status invitation, apply for extension, apply for the permission to move into a new workplace and all kinds of sojourn related applications you will have to submit a copy of your diploma or graduation certificate or certificate of obtain degree which has a Apostille stamp or verification from the Korean Embassy in your own country or a verification from the Korean Council For University Education.
Does this mean I'm basically screwed in terms of extending after September 1st? I can't imagine a Korean consulate in the US would be in the business of verifying Canadian degrees. Does anyone know what the exact procedure would be for those of us who went to university outside of our home countries? |
