 |
|
| Last year I was on a D10 visa when I started working at my curren hagwon. I worked there for a month before my boss got me an E2. My contract ended yesterday but I want to stay in Korea for another 2 months, not working. My visa is valid till the end of May. Would my boss be able to cancel my visa without me present at the immigration office? |

As your contract has finished why not transfer back onto a D10 visa again and avoid the possible hassle?
It seems likely they could cancel it as your contract is up. |

Not 100% sure but I believe both employer and employee have to be present to cancel an E2.
But whatever happens, immigration will send a text message to your cellphone about any changes. |

Yes. He can notify immigration of your cessation of employment without your presence at immigration.
Would that have an effect on your status of sojourn = yes.
Are you legally required to report the change in your status after termination of employment = yes.
Can not doing so have an effect on your immigration file = yes.
options:
- take your 30 days (that you would get if you notify immigration) then leave.
- get a D10 (3-6 months extra allowed period of stay)
- leave within 14 days (no notification required) .
- Stay and not notify and take your chances.

| I wouldn't want to risk the trouble you could be setting yourself up for. It's so easy to get a D10 that you might as well just do that. OR take a trip to Japan and then come back as a tourist. |
