Do they just shred all the paperwork they receive?
My director says immigration wants yet another copy of my diploma with an apostille in order to renew an E-2. This will be the fourth freaking copy of my diploma given to immigration. |

They have more than 10 of mine on file. Each one was embassy certified.
They still require a new one every time I make a change.
They are ALL in my immigration file (it is getting pretty thick now).
They DO keep the hard copies on file as well as the computer copies.

| Huh? I'm pretty sure I've always got mine back from immigration. Just a few months ago, I went with a copy I used in 2005 to get my first visa. No problem. This time, though, they scanned it and said I don't need to bring it again. This was in Mok-dong. |

Over the period of ten years, they've had me submit 5 times. Twice in Daegu, once in Suwon and twice in Jeju.
You should have made this a poll.. lol. |

They return originals but if you used a copy they would have kept it.

| They have been scanning them for a number of years, but they likely don't know what they're doing. Shortly after they started scanning documents, one girl showed me. "Look, we have your diploma from First Citizens' Bank!" |

All nice but how many times do they need transcripts? My university is not happy now, I have had to get them 6 times.
My grades will not change but my University are now stating clearly that they have no obligation to keep supplying me. Indeed they have suggested I get a copy of their stamp & do it myself.
I have had to pay 50 pounds (sterling) each time & now it seems I will have to resort to forgery due to immigration being retarded. To stay in Korea is not an option - not due to transcripts but mental well being.
Bless the E2 process. |

I ordered 30 copies 6 years ago. Still using them now. I even give them a spare copy each time just in case they fail to open it properly or something.  |
