It depends. In our case it was reverse. My wife demonstrated her English level.

His hands were to the side 😂

Unless they specifically require a student visa? With an F6 you can pretty much do anything you want. You can work or study the same as other Koreans.

@@LetsGoTony thank you brother 🤍

Glad you found it interesting 😁 And yeah the government provides insurance up to a certain level. After that there’s private insurance. And for proof of income, the landlords don’t check because you already give them a fat deposit anyway 😆. But some people get a loan from the bank to get the rental deposit money, and in that case the bank does check the financial history and stuff.

I heard you can still teach adults without a degree. I'd ask on the foreigner Facebook forums since they know a lot more about it.

Do you have other ways to prove you can speak the same language? If you can’t prove it then passing Topik might be necessary. But it also depends if you already have kids, lived together, etc. So it’s hard to answer 😆 I’d talk to your local embassy to know exactly.

You’ll always be our favorite foreigner.

@@LetsGoTony it takes one to know one

Thanks 🤗

Glad it was helpful!

Hello 👋 Ok we’ll share more sightseeing next time. Thanks for the feedback 😁

Yeah it’s been great. Especially after learning some Korean it’s been easier 😁 I hope your move goes well!

I know… it’s been a while, right? But new video will be out in a few days! Thanks for your patience.

Glad we could help! For the FBI check, I didn’t have to do it. But I think it depends on each embassy so I’d call or email them to ask.

Thank you for the reply! Just to make sure do you mean it depends where i submit my visa application to? I also was curious how long did it take until you heard back that your visa was accepted?

@@user-nr7el2ek2j Yeah it depends on the embassy you go to submit the application. So we emailed the embassy closest to us and they gave us the exact list we needed. In our case they didn’t require the FBI background check. It’s been a while but I think it took about 3 weeks to get the visa. They give you a site where you can go check. Then you have 90 days to enter Korea.

Sure. It’s called the Early Adaptation Program or 조기적응프로그램. On socinet you’ll be able to register for it. They have classes all over Korea.

@@LetsGoTony thank you 😊

When it’s time to renew they’ll send a letter listing the required documents. I didn’t need a medical certificate but I think it depends on each person.

@@LetsGoTony thank you

@@EonniKim they mailed us the letter a couple months before the renewal date. To our home address.

You should receive a letter in the mail reminding you to renew. That letter will list the required documents.

In general: Passport, Residence CArd, Application form, marriage certificate, copy of resident registration (of spouse), documents proving place of residence (you can use the notice they send you), certificate of family relations (and one in the name of the child if for each child, if you have children), some people have to submit a TB test depending on country of origin If you are divorced or anything, this could be different....

The requirements depends on each person, their citizenship, how long they've been in Korea, how many children they have, etc. So I'd suggest you call immigration and ask them about your specific situation. Good luck!

When you renew and f-6-1, it still stays an f-6-1, just with a new expiration date.

I'm not Jewish but you guys do have great music :D And thanks for watching.

This is the TOPIK I exam. I'm planning to take the KIIP placement exam next year. Wish me luck! :D

Sure! It’s a 3 hour class called the Early Adaptation Program. You can sign up for it on socinet. There are other ways to qualify for a longer extension like if you have children together. But I’m not exactly sure. It’s best to call the immigration office and ask.

@@LetsGoTony did you attended this class with your wife?

@@ademsmith9493 nope just by myself. Then they give you a paper certificate to show immigration.

@@LetsGoTony great .thanks Wish you and your partner a happy life in korea.

Go for it 😁

@@LetsGoTony thank you man.

So happy to hear. Yeah it can be kinda confusing sometimes so I’m glad we could help a bit 😁

At 2:11 it seems to say that the flowering time is September to October. So hopefully!

It's just a small local spa, nothing special. I'd recommend other ones that are more spacious.

Can you share recommendations of spas to go in seoul?

😁 seems like a nice idea

Your welcome. And yes, you'll have 90 days to enter Korea and visit the immigration office to get your residency card. At that point it'll be a 1 year (or longer) visa.

Thanks so much!

We used facebook.com/nonstopbox We also used Dazen Express in the past. If you are shipping from Los Angeles I suggest you check them out 👍

@@LetsGoTony Thank you

What a coincidence that you visited around the time we went. I'm sure the Hanbok photos turned out great! And yeah it's from the drama Twenty Five Twenty One. Actually I didn't watch the drama but my wife did and it seemed many other visitors were so enamored to be there 😄

I didn’t have a Korean language certificate either. So my spouse had to prove she could speak English by providing her university degree. So if your spouse has a degree or some certificate in your native language then it could be helpful in proving your shared language. But ask the Korean consulate to be sure. Good luck!
