if i send all the documents needed for the E2/C4 visa application,
with a letter of my intended dates of entry/reentry,
along with letters of invitation for 2 different jobs,

can i apply for an E2 visa and C4 visa issuance
number at the same time?

i want to do a summer camp position that ends about a week
before i start another job in seoul.
then, when the camp position and visa are finished,
im hoping to have the E2 visa issuance number ready so that
i can do a visa run with minimal delay/process time.

in other words, i want to apply for 2 visas in one application,
to save time, effort and money.


i know that the korean immigration website answers questions
like this but when i click on the Q+A link on the website i
get directed to a page about starting petitions.

has anyone ever had experience with this type of situation?

thanks in advance for your advice.

You might be able to do it without leaving the country at all. I have done this in the past. I was on a C4 visa and switched to an E2. I brought all of the documents to the immigration office (contract, degree, transcripts, etc) and they stamped the status change in my passport and I was on my way. This was 2008 though, so who knows how things may have changed since then. Give immigration a call if the website isn't working.
