Korean Job Discussion Forums

I would like some direct information about getting a visa and the requirements. Who can I talk to?

Complete waste of time to contact any Immigration Office in Korea for that as it is not they who will be handling your initial visa. You must contact the South Korean consulate serving the area in which you reside.

thank you. i called the embassy earlier today and the woman i talked to said she doesn't handle that end of visa processing, and that i'd have to talk to the immigration office. i asked how, and she said i would have to go through my recruiter or job. so far, that hasn't worked out perfectly, so i was hoping to get direct information too.

tomorrow i call the korean consulate in chicago (which handles my jurisdiction)

Why don't you tell us what the question is?

You would think the OP would have the presence of mind to ask us.
Is he paranoid we'll give him the wrong answer? There are general rules when it comes to immigration. The embassies and consulates can answer certain questions about immigration. What he's saying is rather vague....


OP, ask and you may receive:)

i already mentioned it in another thread. this thread was for finding out how to contact immigration.

i am having problems with my background check, as i went through a channeler instead of going through the FBI directly. i need to have it apostilled. the apostille office (local) recommended i get a notorized letter of authenticity (written and signed by MYSELF) and then attach it to the background check, and have that apostilled...

trying to find out if that would fly. if not, i can't go to SK as soon as i was hoping (march.)

[eventually]

i spoke with the consulate, by the way. she said i need to have the actual background check apostilled. so probably i'm SOL. time to find a job hiring in april, or a different country. i want to leave!

[eventually]

i just graduated and i have ants in my pants. also, i already told everyone i am leaving. i have goodbye parties to attend, people...

[eventually]

tomorrow i verify my own background check and get it notarized, and send it in for an apostille. then attempt a visa. wish me luck.

Please, please, please use capital letters at the beginning of sentences and for proper nouns!

I'm not being pedantic, though. The vast majority of people taught to read and write English have been taught to read things and write them in a certain manner, that manner including majuscule letters. A continuous stream of minuscule letters is harder to read and comprehend than one written in the manner someone presumably educated at the university level would display. In other words: you're doing yourself a disservice with your cutesy phone texting style.

And, from the evidence thus far, you are not e e cummings.
