常见问题
选择此途径前的常见问题
What usually delays F-4 or H-2 cases?
Common delays include broken ancestry chains, inconsistent names, missing family relationship documents, unclear nationality history, incomplete translations, and document authentication problems.
Is F-4 always better than H-2?
Not always. F-4 may offer broader flexibility, but eligibility proof and restricted-work rules still matter. H-2 may be more realistic for some applicants depending on ancestry evidence and work plans.
Can overseas Korean visa holders work any job in Korea?
No. F-4 and H-2 can still have work-scope restrictions or reporting duties. Applicants should confirm whether the intended job is allowed before starting work.
