 |
|
dropped off my forms at immigration in Mokdong yesterday, and was surprised that they said the card would be ready in 10 days. Not wanting to have to troop back to Mokdong, I opted for courier delivery.
Has anyone had an alien card processed recently? Did it take the full ten days if you elected for it to be mailed back to you? Last time the Suwon office had my card mailed back to me and was received in less than 4 business days.
Insights appreciated--- pulling my hair out waiting to get a cell contract. |

| You can get a cell phone through thearrivalstore.com and you don't need an ARC. In fact, you can get the phone delivered to you with a day or two and there are English speaking staff there to assist you with the whole process. They have other awesome products too ... |

It largely depends on the time of year and how many applications they are processing at the same time. The usual range is 3-10 days. March is usually the worst month with the large intake of newbies and others needing new cards after a visa change at the beginning of the school year.
Sept. is usually the 2nd worst following the EPIK/GEPIK mid term recruitment drives.
