My best friend here in Korea just renewed at his current school for another year. He was worried about getting his visa renewed for another year because of a misdemeanor arrest showing up on his FBI check. He received his new visa yesterday valid until 2013. I guess it really does work on a case by case basis..Never give up hope!

I've posted about ways two people I know have gotten their E2 visa with criminal records. To quickly reiterate what was done, they wrote K-immi a letter explaining how irrelevant the charges are to an ESL teaching position.
Thanks for the post, it's encouraging amidst all the fear mongering and doubtful posts on that subject.

Yes, same as my friend. They gave him a document called "Self explanatory form" to write out in English and hand in with his documents.
