Foreigner in SOUTH KOREA K1 visa process

[andrelee0101 0]

I am new to this forum and I swear I can't really navigate this site it's still kinda new to me and I'm slowly getting used to it. For now I'll just post a question and I hope someone can help me with this.

I am a Filipino, living here in Korea. Almost 4 yrs. (work and study)

We applied for my k1 visa last October and got our NOA1 last 10.13

I'm still waiting for the second NOA but I would like to know what doccuments should I bring. It's really confusing cause the Korean website is so dated and j would like to hear some new inputs here.

About the police clearance, I heard there are two types of it. I would like to know what version should I get and I heard also that I have to get it translated. If so, where should I have it translated in Seoul?

And also I don't have vaccine records. What should I do now? And when should o shyest getting all of these papers?

Thank you so much. I hope someone can help me with my looooooooobg question. ?????

Where are you applying the Visa in Manila or Korea?

Here is what is expected to bring to the Interview if that's what you are asking:

However, you are unable to get the medical done once you get the packet 3 confirmation email (the beneficiary will receive this). However, you can work on getting the birth certificates, police reports, I-134 (petitioner and Co-Sponsor's if required), and marriage/divorce certificates (if needed).

This should have all the details needed in terms of what documents they will be asking for such as with the police reports and birth certificates (also I am certain this is the most-up to date). I believe you will need police reports from both Korea and Philippines (presuming you were born there).

I will be applying here in Korea cause I live here now. I was born in Saudi Arabia and also I lived in Malaysia and Hongkong. I understand that I have to get all of the police certificates on each country that I have resided since the age 16, my concern is, I heard that there's two type of police clearances here in Korea. I would just like to know T what should I get and where to have it translated in Seoul cause I heard that I needed to get it translated. Thank you.

I have gotten numerous answers on this exact question so I will apply for both.

But I heard the 24 hour clearance (the one you get immediately) is the one required
