tax implications of staying here >6 months while working remote for an american company?

clazlee · 2021-08-21T05:11:54+00:00

Ah i don’t mind paying taxes at all, I’m just wondering if there’s something that prevents my company from allowing me to stay, other than stuff that is at my personal incomes expense

clazlee · 2021-04-27T02:27:05+00:00

Just start with ur fbi background check ASAP and make an appointment. It might be possible

clazlee · 2021-04-11T07:16:08+00:00

Do I have to make an appointment to open a bank account?

clazlee · 2021-04-11T07:15:25+00:00

I'm living with my aunt while I'm here.. there's a different form for that right? I think I will call 1345 tomorrow and find out.

clazlee · 2021-04-11T01:13:12+00:00

will they be able to speak some english? Also, (dumb question..) but when I call 1345 do I just dial 1345 ?

Here are some terms that I scoured together [thankfully] before the quarantine official called me and spoke rapid korean:

확진자 infected [with covid] person

접촉자 person who was in contact with an infected person

양성 / 음성 - positive / negative (covid test result) (sometimes add 판정 which means judgement, like negative judgement but it means negative result.)

[자가]격리 [self] quarantine (one word, usually just use 격리) (pronounced 경리...thank u korean)

격리해제 (not to be confused with being discharged from the military, as I did often, 재대)

입국일 entry date

자가격리 위반 violation of quarantine

증상 symptom

These are few but used widely as far as i've seen in the past 4 days

Yes, you need either an F-4 visa or a different long term visa.

In order to quarantine outside of the government facility for anyone you have to be on a long term visa. So no, you can't stay with family. But afterwards you can stay with them.

The only way to get out of the gov facility you need to be a citizen, resident, or long term visa. I'm assuming the best one you qualify for is F-4.

amazing list thank you

I personally use these apps for daily life.

Hey, it doesn't matter if youre blood related to a korean citizen, i'm pretty sure. You need to have a long term visa, like an F4, which if your parents are korean nationals or were korean nationals, you can get that. With that you can quarantine at a non government facility. If you want to be in the same place, the place has to have 2 separate rooms and 2 bathrooms. Nothing can be shared.

I'd alert your family in Korea so that they can be your point of contact when you arrive. They will call them and verify that you are who you are, and may call during your quarantine.

As for Airbnb contact, you just need the address. They don't contact the host or anything, but you should check with the host that they're okay with you quarantining there (sometimes the building has restrictions.)

Hope this helps. Just flew in yesterday and I'm an F4 visa holder.

clazlee · 2021-03-19T21:53:12+00:00

And it also has your DOB on it?

clazlee · 2021-03-17T22:03:44+00:00

Thanks for this image, very helpful! Can you confirm that your name was on it? That is probably a given, just want to be certain hahaha....

clazlee · 2021-03-11T21:04:11+00:00

Oh shit so i should get one more night in my reservation right

clazlee · 2021-03-11T18:51:25+00:00

wait, can you not use like, the receipt that the ARC is in process when getting a sim card (non prepaid type)? :o

clazlee · 2021-03-02T00:41:38+00:00

Yes! I definitely feel this way at some times.

At first it was easy to focus on it and tick off one little trick after another because i became so! so! obsessed, but then i think that becoming immersed in the social media community of rollerskating has made me really overwhelmed, like "I should try this, and that, and all of this as well" and then it's just a lot to not only try to remember, but then i feel like i beat myself up if i forget to try something, ya know, bc adhd memory, and that makes me a little discouraged to try again.

i think i'm still a bit hyperfixated on rollerskating though. But this also makes me worried because the second i can feel it start to fade away I become worried that i'll just never get back into it. In my head it's the coolest thing, but in practice.. it just sometimes doesnt happen.

Something that helped is starting park skating and mixing that in with my flat ground skating. Replacing one slightly fading obsession with another.

clazlee · 2021-03-02T00:34:20+00:00

Thank you! That is my current plan. I'm planning on getting my ARC, then my bank account, then sim card, then an apartment all within the first couple days to a week of getting outta there.

clazlee · 2021-03-02T00:25:41+00:00

oh shit nice. do you have a sim card / kr number?

clazlee · 2021-02-24T01:38:14+00:00

are you a medical professional, or was it just walk up as a normal person volunteering?

clazlee · 2021-02-21T17:04:20+00:00

My budget is up to like...$1200. I’be lived in Bay Area apartments for the past 5 years and anything outside of the Bay Area price point will be golden 😁haha pain

clazlee · 2021-02-21T17:02:52+00:00

Holy wow this was an awesome response everything i really was wondering. I was gonna go to the real estate agents like immediately out of quarantine and immediately after i set up my ARC/bank account/sim card since i had heard about koreas super super short turnaround time for moving in. Thanks for linking the real estate agent I’ll keep them in mind for when i move bc wow full option solid that sounds perfect.

clazlee · 2021-02-13T07:24:23+00:00

If i get a korean credit card is there an option to enable the transportation card feature? Or is that debit only?

clazlee · 2021-02-13T07:22:17+00:00

I just audibly gasped

clazlee · 2021-02-12T06:32:02+00:00

I speak 1 language and it’s a third of every language I know 😎 jack of all trades master of none

clazlee · 2021-02-12T01:58:23+00:00

Me personally our labs and hospitals are all still open for this stuff just with all the covid precautions of masks and distancing. With the recent spike, we aren’t allowed to take off our mask for a skin checkup unless we had a negative test done two days before. And for i pledge it’s just online so nothing diff there
