 |
|
Hello,
I have a copy of my degree certificate which was apostilled 18 months ago for my current job. I'd like to use this for my Korean visa application, as I don't want to go to the expense and difficulty of getting another copy made and apostilled in the UK.
I know the criminal check has to be dated within the last 6 months; but does anyone know if there is any such rule for apostilles?
I can't see any reason why there should be - I doubt the government has changed its mind on the legality of my qualifications - but as we all know, logic and Kimmi go together like kimchi and peanut butter...
Thanks! |

You are well informed. It should not matter with your degree. Since it is static. Yet like as you mentioned immigration is not always logical or skewed logic. I can no find at the moment but I remember a few people having problems with immigration and people having dated transcripts or degrees. Everything was perfect just old. Officials might think 6 months for all documents.
Consider calling immigration and asking. Still in the end, it might be worth the effort to get a newer degree.
Good Luck |
