Korean Job Discussion Forums

Are these new national criminal record check requirements (FBI) just for Americans, or do teachers from other countries have to do them as well?

Are there English speaking places/stations for fingerprinting and notarization that are recommended for those who don't speak Korean?

Unless you hear from immigration that local police checks are good from Canada, get the RCMP check with fingerprints. I know some people are saying that local checks use the national data base but many local police checks like my previous one also comes with a side note that says

*Please be advised that if the above mentioned person were ever convicted of a summary conviction in a jurisdiction other than the province of New Brunswick that conviction would not be found in our search" and continues "was not fingerprinted, that conviction would not be disclosed in our search."

This search was also conducted using local police force records management system (RMS) and provincial justice information system (JIS) and the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC).

So I don't know if immigration overlooks this fact when they read your local police check or not. Why wait? I've sent off for an RCMP check a month ago just to be safe. Maybe you should too rather than rely on wishful thinking.
