Visa Process Costs

The Process for Teaching in Korea was long and costly, but in the end, we got what we wanted. We ended up going with AMS Korea, whom we recommend, at least thus far. We have tried to deal with many other recruiters, but haven't had good experiences with most of them. They made things relatively easy, even through some crazy things that happened throughout this process.

Total Cost For the Visa Process:
$30 Criminal Record Check (15 x 2 for the two of us)
$30 Criminal Record Check Apostille (15 x 2 for the two of us)
$15 Jacki's Bachelor Diploma Apostille
$15 Aaron's Bachelor Diploma Apostille
$15 Jacki's Masters Diploma Apostille
$30 3 Copies of Jacki's Bachelor Transcripts
$15 3 copies of Aaron's Bachelor Transcripts
$0 3 copies of Aaron and Jacki's Masters Transcripts (free transcripts)
$100 Est Fedex cost to send papers to Korea. (we had to do it twice)
$90 Cost of 2 E-2 Visas
$18 Express Mailing our passports to the Korean consulate
$60 Est. Gas Cost for Driving to Austin (for apostille) and Houston (consulate)

Total: ~$418 for two people

Not cheap, but hopefully it'll be worth it!
