I just read a thread below about the F-3 visa.

The big question is:

Why would anyone want an F-3 visa? What's the point in even having them?

An F3 visa is for a dependant spouse or family member: My husband had to get an F3 visa to accompany me here. He�s Spanish and thus cannot teach English. He works from home via the computer. Works out great for us!

But what's the difference between an F-2 and F-3?

They seem to do the same thing...

You can't "work" for a Korean company with just an F-2 I think... you still need to get immigration approval...

Or have things changed?

Things have changed. No permission required for F2s to work anywhere they want.

It might be that an F-2 is for foreign spouses of Korean citizens, while an F-3 is for foreign spouses of foreign citizens.
