This notice provides guidance on the E-1 Professor visa extension process for Woosong University faculty members.
Faculty members who have renewed their employment contracts must complete the visa extension procedure before the expiration date of their current visa. Please review the instructions below carefully.

Step 1. Prepare the Required Documents
Please refer to the attached checklist titled “Extension of E-1 Visa Status” for the complete list of required documents.

Important Notes
 - If you experience difficulty obtaining the Income Certificate from the Hometax website, please bring your bank-issued digital certificate (공인인증서) when visiting the HR Office.
 - If you currently hold a visa type other than E-1, please confirm the required documents through the HiKorea website (https://www.hikorea.go.kr/Main.pt) or by calling 1345. You may then proceed with the application either online or by making a reservation and visiting the Daejeon Immigration Office in person.

Once your visa extension is approved, the following steps must be completed:
1. Print the Registration Certificate(접수증) + Confirmation Certificate(허가확인서) from the Hi Korea websit.
2. Visit the Daejeon Immigration Office to have the new validity period updated on the back of your Alien Registration Card (ARC).
3. After the ARC has been updated, please send scanned copies of the front and back of your updated ARC to the Faculty HR Office by email (wshrsupport@wsu.ac.kr) or bring the card . directly to our office (W7, Room     220-1). We will update your information in the Woosong University Information System.
4. If there is no remaining space on the back of your ARC to record the updated extension, you will need to obtain a new ARC at the Daejeon Immigration Office. The issuance fee is 35,000KRW, and the delivery fee is       4,000 KRW.
