<<Must Know: Graduation Season is coming for International Students (D-2 VISA)>>
The graduation season is coming for intrnational students who are studying in Korea with D-2 visa.
Their hope is to find a job in Korea and work in Korea with a valid long term visa such as E-7 visa or F-2 visa.
(*E-7 visa: Specified Activity VISA, F-2 visa: Residence VISA)
To change current D-2 VISA to work visa (E-7 visa etc.) is getting difficult and needs to know a few details.
*1. Recommend to apply for D-10 visa first after graduation:
Due to E-7 visa is getting difficult to get, so it would be a nice choice to apply for D-10 visa, Job seeking visa.
D-10 visa has a benefit such as finding a job sponsor company for 6 months and then is allowable for extension (max. 2 years). Also, you may work as an intern after having D-10 visa.
Some international students try to apply for E-7 visa directly from D-2 visa, sometimes it is good but mostly is not.
Because if you fails to permit E-7 visa from D-2 visa, mostly you have to leave Korea due to expiration of your visa.
That's why recommending D-10 visa to secure.
*2. Certificate for soon to be graduated or Certificate of Graduation required for D-10 visa change:
When associate or bachelor course students apply for D-10 visa before graduation, D-10 visa is allowable for application.
However, mostly, Immigration Office may ask you to get a graduation certificate rather than certificate for soon to be graduated for master or PhD course student.
3. E-7 visa or F2-7 visa from Master or PhD diploma holders after graduation from one of Korean universities:
Nowadays, Immgration Office recommends that applicants apply for E-7 visa first even though they have enough points.
Also, when you apply for E-7 visa or F2-7 visa, check your major and your work field at a sponsor company or find the reason why your hiring company shall hire you clearly for bachelor or higher degree holders.
