Thanks for this video👍💪 very informative and helpful. A New friend here
Super liked👍
and loved the video❤
Watching here from Jeddah KSA sending support without skipping ads💪🙏
Thanks for sharing. This is very informative.
Very good information. I’m definitely looking forward to going to Korea also
This is very helpful po. Thank you for sharing ♡♡♡
Thank you for this info very informative and hoping to have an updated Korean visa application vlog thank you.
Thank you! Hopefully din hahaha
Hi! Just want to say that your video is so insightful and detailed. I have an appointment in a few weeks and I have the same concern regarding the COE. Since we are a startup with permanent wfh setup, we really don't have an office landline. I was just wondering what your HR listed on the number section instead and how did you explain it on your letter. Thank youuu
Hi, thank you! I just put in N/A on the application form. Then I made sure that my explanation letter comes first before the application form when the documents were submitted. In the explanation letter, I just mentioned that my employer doesn't maintain any landline as all of the processes are done online or via email including employment verification. I shared with them the process of how they can verify my employment with the company (via email). There! :)
hi! thank you for sharing your experience. :)
i just wanted to ask if the letter of guarantee from sponsor has to be notarized
what did your letter look like if it’s ok with you to share! thank you so much
edit: also, did you have to explain why your sibling was sponsoring you and not your parents?
Hi! Yes, the letter of guarantee was notarized. Basically, what you will need to state in this letter is the information of the guarantor (name and passport number), the relationship between the guarantor and the guarantee, and the guarantee's information (name and passport number). The guarantor may also want to add that they are taking responsibility for providing all of the financial needs of the travel for the guarantee, from flights to food and other expenses.
It was my brother who was being sponsored by my sister, while I supported my own travel. My mom is a housewife and doesn't have any source of income. My sister is a lawyer and has a bigger salary so her profile is a bit better than mine, so we decided to have her as the guarantor instead of me.
Hope this helps!
@@samanthapizarro thank you so much for taking the time to respond! please take care :)
Hello do the embassy need an itinerary as one of a requirement for application? Thank you!
Hi, you don't have to provide your itinerary for visa application. :)
So sorry to hear that your brother got denied of his visa application.
Just a note, you can edit the notes sa appointment schedule even after getting a confirmed schedule. If you were able to book your brother a separate schedule, you could have edited and removed his details dun sa notes sa appointment schedule mo.
Thank you! At the time we were booking which was last December pa, there wasn’t option for us to alter any details on our online registration. But if this has been recently added, that’s great news! Thanks for sharing!
You mentioned that you were supposed to go to Korea in 2020 and had everything sorted out already. Did you get an approved visa nadin nun? I had an approved visa from March 2020-June 2020 but also, pandemic happened :( I'm scared na baka they won't approve because I didn't get to use the visa :(
Hello, no actually. Wala pa akong visa that time. As in booked lang yung flights ko hehe. You have the exact same scenario with my friend. Approved na siya ng Single Entry na visa for his flight pero nagkalockdown. So di niya rin nagamit yung visa niya. But he also applied again and approved naman siya. Nilagay niya lang sa cover letter niya na approved na siya last 2020 and di niya nagamit dahil sa COVID. Isa siya sa kasama ko sa Korea :)
Hello. Ask ko lang po baka may idea po kayo. if makakaaffect po ba sa next korean visa application ko po if ever na hindi ko po nagamit ung previous granted visa ko po? Nag expired po kasi ng hindi po ako nakatravel sa Korea. And I planning to apply again. Thanks in advance po.
I've had 4 approved Korean visa(2 single-entry and 2 multiple entry visas) and my first application 13 years ago was denied. Pansin ko, the consul does not really review documents na wala sa list of requirement. So if you put "unemployed", they will not check for any other reason why. They will not check the PWD card unless naindicate mo as reason for not being employed(other) is PWD-- then write "see attached PWD ID".
Kasi in the first place, red flagged na talaga sa Korea ang males in their 20s, yan kasi madalas ang nag-ooverstay for employment. Tapos nakita unemployed. they probably did not bother to check for other documents, deny na agad.
That was a probable reason bakit ako nadeny noong una. I was in my early 30s, then freelance employment lang.
I agree with the financial documents, though. Mas importante ang account activity kaysa balance. I remember when I got my first multiple entry visa nagkamali pa ako ng naisubmit. I gave my expense bank account details and at the time nasa 50k lang yata ang balance. But it was active kasi nga expense account.
Anyway, I hope you had fun. I was in Korea early March. Sinulit ko lang kasi expiring na yung 5-year multiple. I'm planning to reapply in August kasi may trip uli with friends in October. Crossing my fingers na I get an appointment slot and get another multiple entry visa.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Will need to reconsider talaga paano ang gagawin namin next application. Hopefully, everything goes well for your trip this October!
@@samanthapizarro hey! I just saw that they changed the visa application process again. Starting late August, no need for online appointment. They also set up a separate office for visa application submissions. Yay!
@@cyndlc yes!! Very good improvement! Sana lang mas maging lenient na din sila sa pag approve ng visa! 🙏🏻
Hello, nice vlog and very informative. I just wanna ask, if when do you think is the best time to apply for korean visa or how many months before your preferred flight. And also, if its okay to know your travel agency and its cost. Thanks in advance.
Hey, thank you! I don't think there is a best time to apply for a visa. Just keep in mind that if you get approved especially if it's a single entry, it will only be valid for 3 months. You can apply for a visa at least a month before your flight. In our case, my original flight together with my brother was on March 31. So we eyed to apply for a visa by the end of January. But I do suggest especially nowadays na it's very hard to secure an appointment is to try every month. Let's say you want to visit Korea during Autumn, you may want to start trying to book for an appointment at least by July or August.
Party On Travel and Tours was our travel agency, they are located in BGC, just across Uptown. They have an assistance fee of 1k but for all of the agencies I have asked, they were all just 1k. :)
@@samanthapizarro thank you so much for your very informative reply. Me and my wife are planning to go there on first week of sept. Actually it'll be our second time to visit S.korea coz we've been there last 2019 where travel agencies plays a big part for the visa application. I just wanna also ask if the cover letters are still required? and if so, should it be individually? Do they also require Marriage Certificate for married couple?
@@LordKaeL13 Hindi po required ang cover letter pero some still provide it. My friends created one. For the marriage cert, it depends if only one of you will financially support both of your travels. You will need to provide it so you can prove your relationship. But if no naman, no need na based sa requirements nila sa website. :)
Hi! Since they open slots once a month lang, i suggest trying to book a slot at least 2-3 months in advance. Single-entry visas are usually valid for 6 months naman so even if you manage to get a slot the first time, valid pa sya by the time you travel. This also works best kasi para may visa ka na before you book a flight.
@@samanthapizarrohello good day it's me again, thank you for your reply last time. I just wanna ask also for how many days is the processing days of visa and releasing of passports? thanks in advance
Thanks for sharing 😊
Plan din namin mag travel ng sis ko this year. 19 yo sya and student pa sya. Dapat ba mag secure sya ng slot nya on her own using her own account? Or pwedeng ako na mag secure ng slot nya separately using my account?
Hi, pwede pong ikaw na din po ang magsecure ng appointment niya just as long sakanya nakapangalan yung booking. Hindi naman po chncheck ng embassy kaninong account or email ang ginamit sa pag reserve ng slot.
@@samanthapizarro Thank you! 🤗
Hi. How can i know if i am banned to go to South Korea. I was there 2015-2018 but when i wanted to go back this year they denied me a visa. Please me know why
Hi, from what I have read in travel groups getting approved for a visa before and having multiple trips in SK doesn't guarantee that your next visa application will be approved. Unfortunately, we can't know for sure exactly why they have rejected an application.
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
- 1:47 Online visa appointments are no longer required starting August 29 in line with the opening of the Korean Visa Application Center. Visa applications will be all considered ‘Walk-In’ as there will no be reservations. There is also no limits on how many applications KVAC will accept daily. There will also now be a fee of 900PHP for your visa application starting August 29. KVAC is located in Brittany Hotel in BGC.

- The Korean Embassy has also release ‘e-Group’ visa which allows a minimum group of 3 to apply through an accredited travel agency. Read more here: facebook.com/100064843024258/posts/pfbid02YXTgaLcYzqGEcsQLyDhpnsFpKWijbbaxcRWJRb4x5nhreHL2B8mnNjKGkGnsfn5jl/?mibextid=ceOks4
- The Embassy will be ACCEPTING WALK INS by the END OF AUGUST. Please read more in their FB page.
Hello! Required po before yung birth cert? or additional docu lang po siya? Salamat!!
Hi! Additional document lang po siya. Pero if meron po magssupport sainyo or may issupport po kayo na kasama niyo papuntang Korea, need po siya iprovide as a proof of relationship.
Hi. For your comments & suggestion po. If traveling with family, husband & wife plus 2 kids, where only the wife is employed is there a chance for everyone especially the husband to get approved??
Hi, possible naman po na maapprove po si husband. Bale ang mangyayari is si wife ang magiisue ng affidavit of support and guarantee for the 2 kids and the husband. You just need to provide all of the financial and work documents of the wife together with the application of the other 3. Though I suggest sa application form po ni husband, sa work information ang itick ay Others then 'House Husband' or something similar to that since baka di maganda sa mata ng Consul ang 'Unemployed'.
Hi! If you read this, I hope you could answer ASAP. I will book an appointment for me and my family this Thursday and I was wondering, did you Log-In as a Member or Non-Member on multiple devices and browsers? Thank you in advance for your response.
I was wondering if Signing up and Logging in as a Member on multiple devices and browsers is possible, rather than logging in as a Non-Member multiple times.
hey, sorry for the late response! I hope you got to book your slots for next month. At the time of my application, there wasn't an option to create an account or log in as a member.
@@samanthapizarro thank you for the response! fortunately got a slot
@@billliecola9358 Hey, congrats! Hopefully, you get approved!
If your small business is registered, make sure you also provide supporting documents like mayor's permit, ITR, etc. IF wala, maybe you can write a cover letter that explains your business set up. Ang nababasa ko din based on other people's experience is they indicate na Self-Employed sila kung may business sila. I think it's risky to tick Others din if meron ka naman din source of income. I suggest for you to read further sa South Korea for Dummies on FB baka may mahanap ka na same scenario sayo. Hopefully maapprove ka agad ng mga Admin in time for your submission. Here's the link: facebook.com/groups/2049523071960519 Super helpful din ng group na yan :)
hi mam, ask ko lang po if naapprove po ba yung application nyo? thanks
@@billliecola9358 Hi Ms Billie! Is it okay to share if you got approved? Thanks!
Hello. Have you tried to apply for your brother again? My son was also denied. He is PWD too.
Oh no. I'm so sorry to hear about that. Not yet. To be honest, medyo skeptic kami to try again because there are so many people who have been denied recently. Although, we will try again next year. May I know what you have put in the Education and Employment? And what have you done differently from us?
Hi po. Question lang po, kapag employer po yung magsusupport sa aking travel to korea, need po ba ang bank cert nya pr pwede na po yung affidavit of support at itr po nya?
Hi, work trip po ba ito? Tho wala akong makitang specific to this kind of scenario. From my perspective po, short term visit for employed individual po iaapply niyo and if company mo po ang magssupport then yes need po financial documents ng company. Di rin po ako sure pero try niyo po tumawag sa mga travel agency, tapos ask po kayo kung ano pong documents ang need niyo at ng company iprovide. Baka lang din po need niyo magprovide ng supporting documents why supported ng company ang travel.
Hi again. Forgot to ask lang. Okay lang ba na hindi masunod yung intended date of entry sa application form? Like for example, nilagay ko sa form december, pero na-move ng november flight namin to Korea? Magkakaroon ba ako ng problem nyan sa immigration?
Hi, wala naman pong kaso yung date sa form pero just make sure na within 3 months ng application yung date na ilalagay niyo po dahil 3 months lang po ang validity ng single entry visa. For example, this july po kayo naissuehan ng SE visa, hanggang October lang po valid yung visa. Baka po kasi pag masyadong maaga kayo nagapply based sa intended date of entry niyo, madeny po kayo.
@@samanthapizarro Thank you for the detailed reply. Note ko yan. 😊
Thanks for sharing po, subscribed😊, may i know po if how long kayo nagwait for the results after po ng pagpasa nyo ng documents?
For our application, after 4 days nagreflect na po yung results sa website ng embassy.
Hello po. Same po kasi na walang landline number sa company namin pwede po ba makita yung explanation letter and nasa seperate paper po ba sya ng COE? Thankyou in advance po
Hi, our company has a certain process for disclosing our information to a 3rd party. So basically, inexplain ko lang po dun that they can email the company and mention the ticket number I have submitted to allow HR to disclose my information to the Korean embassy since our company doesn't maintain a landline. And yes, magkahiwalay na paper po sila ng COE pero as far as I can remember, pinagsunod ko lang sila sa documents na sinubmit sa embassy.
Hi! Do you think average daily balance of 30k would be enough?
Hi, yes that’s enough :)
Thank you!!
Hiii, how did you fill out the application form po? Since naka pdf po siya im having trouble to input my details
Hi, oh I actually used a licensed Adobe Acrobat application so it was easier for me. Not sure lang if there’s a free version of it.
Question po ulit hehe
Yung 1200 estimated budget for food and transpo lang yun?
Oh sa mismong application form po ito? Kasama po sa consideration dun yung accommodation din po. Estimate lang naman po siya. At the time na nagrresearch ako, ang nakikita ko is 80 to 90 USD ang budget per day. So ginawa ko lang po na 100 USD per day and nilagyan ko na rin ng sobra :) 10 days na stay po kasi nakalagay sa application form ko.
Hello! May I know what is the name of Travel Agency who handled the application requirements?
Hi, it’s Party On Travel and Tours in BGC
Hello po, I secured a reservation slot ngayong May 30 and I will be submitting my visa application as well as my parents and sibling. Do they also have to personally go sa Embassy to submit or pwede na ako lang yung magssubmit sa forms namin? Thank you po!
Hi, if you are all in one online appointment you can submit on behalf of them. If hindi naman po, may nabasa po ako sa FB na pwede daw na iisa nalang ang magsubmit basta may sariling appointment yung papasahan niyo po.
@@samanthapizarro ohhh nasa iisang appointment lang po kaming apat, so okay lang po na ako yung mag submit in behalf of them?
@@filroseyurag3752 Yes, okay lang po yan :)
Hello miss
I actually want to travel in south korea with my brother but my brother does not have a visa. Will they allow my brother to travel with me from my visa.??
Hi, each person who will enter South Korea will need to have a valid visa so your brother will need to get one.
@@samanthapizarro thank you so much ..
You didn’t mention if they required a show money? How much is it?
Hi, your bank statement and bank certificate serves as your “show money”. I mentioned that in the application form, there’s a field asking about your estimated budget for the trip and with that, they will need to see that you have that much amount on your bank account (probably more). I think they’ll also look at the length of your stay and your budget. They don’t have a standard amount that they need to see since I know some people who got their visas approved with only 25-30k in their accounts.
Hi do we need to submit the original old passport also as a requirement? Will they send it back as well?
Hi, I’ve read in FB groups that you don’t really need to submit your old passport. Based on the requirements in the Korean Embassy’s website even photocopies of your OECD visas are enough. Pero I guess, there’s no harm in including them so that’s what we did. Kung hindi naman need, when you submit your requirements sa embassy, ibabalik naman nila sainyo yung di na kailangan ng consul. And yes! They will give it back to you together with your current valid passport.
@samanthapizarro thank you so much. Yes to no harm in trying. 😊
More videos like this on the future. So helpful. God bless❤️
If We're applying with our children under my husband, do we need to fill up separate forms for each of us? Me (housewife and my twins?) Or we're all going to be under 1 application form of my husband? Thank you so much for all the help and tips.😊😊😊
@@jennelyngonzales9421 Thank you din po! Hope everything goes well!
@@jennelyngonzales9421 It's 1 applicant = 1 application form po.
Question: for how long should you use your visa before it gets expired?
Hi, a single entry visa is only good for 3 months after visa approval.
Housewife lang po ako, I’m scared applying a Korean visa and Hk palang ang out of the country na na-visit ko with my family. 😔
Hi! Don’t be scared! I have read posts in FB where they don’t even have any travel history and they got approved. From what I’ve seen, if you are applying with your family there’s a better chance of you to get approved. 😊
Planning to invite my parents,My husband is Korean.I just wonder magkano po bayad sa travel agency at pwede po ba makahingi ng contact details ng agency? Salamat po
Hi, ang processing po ng agency is 1k :) This already includes checking of the documents and submitting them to the Korean Embassy.
Hi ask ko lang po paano if i will travel with my bf, he is working with me as freelancer but all the money sa akin nasesend so basically wala siyang maiprovide na bank statement na enough ADB. Please advise po thanks
Hi, hindi po ako fully sure kung anong dapat gawin sa scenario niyo pero may mga nakikita po ako na yung partner ang nagssupport ng travel financially. Meaning sa application po ni bf kayo po ang ilalagay niya na magssuport ng travel niyo po. With that, ikaw po ang magpprovide lahat ng financial documents. Nagooutsource po ba kayo ng work sa bf niyo? If yes, baka dapat niyo pong iexplain sa cover letter. Try niyo po magpost sa South Korea For Dummies sa FB baka meron po dun na same exact scenario sainyo and ano ang ginawa nila para mas sure.
Thank you for this video any idea how much money they need in your 3 months bank statement?
Hi, I don’t think there is a standard amount of money they need to see in your account. I’ve seen people with as much as 20-30k in their bank account and they get approved. My guess is 30k above. A little bit above the amount you specify in the estimated budget your application form.
@@samanthapizarro 20k you mean $usd?
@@Lina_Simiti Hi, apologies for the late reply. No, just in pesos.
Hi, ilang months or year po ang validity ng Korean Visa nyo? Salamat po in advance sa info.
Hello! Single entry lang po ako. 3 months validity lang po siya.
Questions po, may binayaran po ba kayo na visa fee? Same requirements po ba kapag ako po ang magiging guarantor ng aking mother? She's unemployed po kasi senior citizen na. Where can I get po the Affidavit of Support and Guarantee po? Salamat po.
Hi, wala pong ibabayad sa Embassy when you apply for a visa. For the requirements naman po since you will be supported by your mom, you will need to provide her bank statement and bank certificate. The Affidavit of Support and Guarantee is something that you will need to write and to be signed by your mom. This letter will also need to be notarized. Need iindicate na anak ka niya po, she must state your date of birth and that she is financially supporting your travel. Need din magprovide ng documentation that will support your relationship with your mom, so your Birth Certificate will do. Also, the situation may vary like are you a student or are you already working. You may also need to provide for that depende kung ano ang nakainidcate sa application form mo.
Gd day po. kami po ng anak ko na underage ay pareho ang date ng appointment namin sa Cebu Korean Consulate, pwede po ba ako nalang ang magsubmit ng documents sa Korean Consulate sa Cebu kasi sa Leyte po ako at may klase pa po anak ko? Wala kasi akong nakita sa website nila kong ano ang dapat gawin pag parehas ang appointment ng magka pamilya. Salamat po
Hi po, sa mga nababasa ko po sa FB travel groups eh pwede po na ikaw po magsubmit for your kids since magkakasama din naman po kayo sa appointment.
In how many days did you receive the approval?
Hi, the results took 4 days to be reflected in the embassy’s website. Then the passports were ready to be picked up after 7 days since the embassy is closed during weekends.
Hi mam😊 ask ko lang po kung ok lang po ba pareho kami ng cover letter sa workmates ko, kahit individual yung appointment slot namin...group po kami mag to.tourist sa korea. Salamat po and god bless💕
Hi, kasama ko din officemates ko sa trip and same din ang date ng individual slots namin. Halos same kami ng explanation letter na pnrovide explaining about our ITR. Pero for myself, di na ako nagprovide ng cover letter explaining kung anong gagawin ko sa SK. But my officemates created one and halos same lang din sila ng nakasulat. But of course, make sure na ang ipapasa niyo ay nakapangalan sa isa’t isa. :)
@@samanthapizarro salamat po mam sam❤ subscriber here, share ko din to sa workmate ko.😊
@@jessicalumbre7400 thank you po! 🫶🏻 sana maapprove kayong lahat! Masaya sa SK! 🤍
Need po ba lahat ng family member na nilagay dun sa notes ay sumama sa embassy in person?
Hi, no need na po. Kung kanino lang po nakapangalan yung mismong appointment, siya nalang ang need ng appearance.
hii thanks for this! but ask ko lang bc I will apply for korean tourist visa for students and need kasi ng parent’s documents such as bank cert, bank statements, and the likes… but yung sister ko yung kasama ko and mag proprovide ng expenses ng trip, uhm do I still need to provide my parent’s bank docs or pwede sa sister ko nalang? thank you in advance 🥹🫶🏻
Hi, from what I have read before if Student ka, it's mandatory to provide financial and other docs of your parents. But if you were to put your sister as the one supporting your travel in the Visa application form, need din ng sister mo magprovide ng supporting documents like the letter of support and guarantee, bank cert and statement, COE, ITR, supporting doc of your relationship, etc. If your sister is also applying for a visa, she'll also have to get those documents anyway so mas okay siguro if you are truthful sa application mo, stating na your sister will be financially supporting your travel since you are travelling together. You can also submit a cover letter bakit ganun yung set up niyo. :)
@@samanthapizarro thank you so much for responding will def take note of this 🫶🏻
@@Sunooish Good luck with your application! Hope everything goes well :)
Hello po if nagpa appoint po ako for myself and my husband pwedi po ba ako nalang magpunta sa embassy to submit our requirements? Thankyou
Hi! Under one appointment lang po ba kayo ng husband niyo? If yes po, pwede po na ikaw nalang po magsubmit for the two of you pero pag magkahiwalay po na appointment, mas okay po ata na both kayo ang present on the day of the appointment. Not sure po kasi if pwede po yung ganun and if ano po ang need niyo iprovide. For us po kasi na dumaan sa agency, may letter of attorney po na sinubmit so baka may ganun din pong requirement.

question po, oks lang po ba na hnd masunod ung nilagay na date sa intended entry?
Hello, yes po. Since di naman po recommended ng embassy din na may confirmed plane or hotel bookings when we apply for a visa and di rin naman sila humihingi ng proof na yun yung real entry to SK. Nakalagay po sa application ko is March 31 ang pasok to SK pero in reality April 10 ako pumunta ng SK :)
Hello po. Ano po difference ng individual tourism 1,2 and 3?
Depende po sa type of entry na kailangan ng tourist. Meron din po kasi yan short term visa for students, business, etc. But for us na for leisure or vacation lang po na wala namang kamag anak sa Korea or walang invitation, C-3-9 Short Term General.
@@samanthapizarro okay po thank youu 🥰

Hi ma’am! I am unemployed and currently reviewing for my upcoming board exam this August.
Tho, i have savings for myself to fund the trip for 5 days in September.
What do you think po are the requirements needed for me?
Massive thanks po ❤️
Hi, I am not entirely sure what requirements you should submit for your scenario but in the posts that I’ve read here are the requirements:
- cover letter (this is not required but in your case, I think it’s best for you to write one). In your cover letter, you can explain your situation that you are currently reviewing for a board exam. If you have proof na you will be taking the boards on August, you can also photocopy a proof of that and attach it.
- your own bank cert and statement since you will be funding your own travel
- IF you were previously employed, I think it would help if you can provide a document that certifies that. In our company, we issue a letter for past employees to verify that they were with the company from X to X. This is also not required but if I was previously employed, I will provide this.
- application form. Now the tricky part here is saying there that you are unemployed. Since I think my brother was denied due to that even though he is a PWD. I don’t want to give an advise for this one since my brother’s situation doesn’t exactly apply to yours. I suggest for you to join South Korea for Dummies PH on Facebook and ask about it.
- diploma. For I’ve seen in the FB group mentioned is that for new grads, they also show this. But then again, this is not required.
- ITR if you were previously employed
These are the documents I think you should prepare but I suggest for you to ask around since your situation is very different with mine so I can’t really confirm for sure.
How long did it take for them to release your visa?
I think it was only around 5 business days for us
Thank you.
Hello! is stapled documents okay? or sila na mag staple?
Hi! Bibigyan po kayo ng paperclip sa embassy :)
@@samanthapizarro so di po allowed naka staple na documents? thank you
@@imadrianpadilla Pwede naman po pero this is the experience I had and also my friends. We didn't staple anything together. Just as long as your documents are grouped well together, that should be okay.
Good day po, sa mga dependents na kasama, mga anak at asawa, un bank certificate, bank statement, employment certificate ay original at bawat isa sa amin ay meron original? Salamat 😊
Hi, hindi po ako sigurado pero I think better po na magprovide nalang po ng original documents for each dependent. I don't think iisa lang naman po ng Consul ang magrreview ng lahat ng application niyo po.

Hi, sorry hindi po ako sure kung ano po yung yellow fever.
Unemployed po ako mam im already 49 years old may magsponsor po saakin na sister ko.
Bale 4 po kami sa group tour. Malake poba chance na madeny ako?
Hi! When you say group tour, as in po tour na booked sa agency malaking group? Ang alam ko po sa ganyan mas madali po maapprove. Pero just as long maprovide lahat ng finacial documents ng sister niyo po, okay po yan. Wala din naman po kasiguraduhan if maddeny or approve. Basta po eh magsubmit lang ng lahat ng kailangan :)
Anu po meaning sa website nila ng reservation period ex. June 1 to 30 (1 month).?
Hi, this means that this is the next available dates for you to book your visa application. This happens every last Thursday of the month. So for June 1-30, May 25 po ang only day na makakapagbook po kayo for the month of June.

@@periwinkletinkle7371 yes po :)
Hi maam, just wanna ask yung 3 months of bank statement. 3 months before yung flyt?
Hi, 3 months po from the application ng visa. So for me, my application was the last week of January. So I just made it a point na may kita na January sa statement ko pero hindi po whole January ang nacapture. Basta naman po latest na statement, that should be okay.
Hi ask ko lng un sa bank statement. Nakapag pa appointment Nako sa emba
Appointment ko ito Aug 24, Un savings ko sa bank nabawasan un 130k ko naging 20k na lng ksi nagshop Ako gold kahapon nalagas un savings ko eeh haha pero sa 19 at 23 pa un remittance. dpa ko nakaka kuha Ng bank statement sa bdo ko. Pwede ko ba I request sa bdo na feb 1 to Aug 1 un ilagay sa bank statement? 6months po ba un bank statement or 3months.
@@976Xoxo hi, 3 months lang po ang iissue ni bank for Korean visa application. Pwede niyo po itry kung pwede 6 months ang iissue nila. Pero ang alam ko po, ang importante po kay embassy ay ang average daily balance (ADB) ng account. May mga nababasa po ako na 20-30k lang ang current na laman ng bank account pero naapprove naman po. Basta lang makita na consistent ang labas at pasok ng pera sa account niyo po.
@@samanthapizarro hi Po ano po ba un req ni Korean embassy, bank certificate with 3months bank statement? So kung Aug Aug 23 Ako kukuha Ng bank statement sa bdo ano po kaya nakalagay sa bank statement starting may 23 to Aug 23? Or pwede kaya sbhn may 1 to Aug 1 un ilagay sa bank statement pwede po Kya un?
@@976Xoxo Hi, di ko lang po marecall if exactly 3 months from the day na nagrequest kayo ang reflected sa statement and certificate. Mas okay po siguro if magask po kayo mismo sa BDO para mas sigurado and if pwede specific date ang ireflect nila sa documents. Pero for sure po, meron pong 'Date Issued' sa statement and baka lang po magtaka ang Consul na Aug 23 kayo naissuehan pero hanggang Aug 1 lang ang reflected.
Hi po, ask lang po ano po kaya yung madalas na reason why hindi naiisuehan ng KOREAN VISA po?
Isa po sa usual reasons ay yung 'You have failed to prove the purpose of entry to Korea'. Hindi po nagbibigay ng specific reason ang embassy kung bakit ka nila dineny. Baka po may nakita silang nakakapagtaka or di nagmamatch sa documents niyo. Case to case basis po. Pero usually, depende din po sa Consul na natapat na nagreview ng application.
@@samanthapizarro ate normal po ba na binabalik nila ang bank statement during application? Pero yung mga ibang papers po at passport ko ay kinuha nila
@@EonniKim passport lang po ang ibabalik nila. So kukunin po nila lahat ng documents na issubmit niyo po.
Good morning Ma'am nakapag settle na po ako ng appointment this May 18,para mag pasa ng reguirements and ung mag shoulder ng expenses ko is my boyfriend.need ko po ba mag attached ng bank certificate and bank statements ni Boyfriend para sa Requirements?
Hi! Yes po, need po isama lahat ng documents ng magssupport like COE, ITR, bank cert and statement or if may business po siya or kayo. Pero heads up lang din po, based po kasi sa mga nababasa ko same ng scenario na iba ang nagsupport financially ng travel kahit nasa working age na nadeny po sila kahit binigay lahat ng documents ng nagsupport. Baka po kasi magtaka ang consul bakit po iba ang magssupport ng travel mo po. If may work po kayo currently at si boyfriend po ang magssupport baka need niyo po magbigay ng cover letter explaining bakit ganun po ang set up ninyo.
Meron nmn ako work,and may Bank Statement and Bank Certificate na rn ako nakuha sa Bank ko,si Bf Lang talaga mag shoulder Ng expenses namin sa travel
@@maffymagpusao231 Ilalagay niyo po ba sa application form details ni BF as the one financially supporting? The way I see it po kasi is baka magtaka po si Consul na may work po kayo and you can provide your own financial documents and yet iba po ang magssupport ng travel niyo based on the application form. Try niyo po magjoin sa South Korea for Dummies sa FB. Baka may kapareha po kayo ng situation. Para mas mabigyan din po kayo ng guidance sa scenario niyo :)
Pede mo po mahingi link dun sa group na sinasabi nu po Ma'am,,iready ko Lang po Sana ung mga documents just incase hanapin po
@@maffymagpusao231 ito ho. facebook.com/groups/2049523071960519 hopefully, everything goes well! :)
Hi po. I got denied with my visa application. Yung reason po, it says. “Your purpose of entry has not been explained in detail.”
Sabi ng agency ko, okay naman lahat ng requirements ko kasi if not, the embassy would return the doc/s na hindi okay or ma-no-notify naman si agency kung anong requirement/s ang problem.
I just don’t get it. I have sufficient funds and nakapag travel ako abroad na.
Nag submit po ba kayo ng cover letter? What did you do/write/submit to explain in detail your purpose of entry? 😞
Hi, oh no!! Actually, I didn’t submit a cover letter. The only letter I provided was a letter explaining why I don’t have an up to date ITR and why our company doesn’t have any landline. Hindi talaga mappoint out san exactly nagkamali pag nadeny. May mga nababasa din ako na as in may visa pa sa US and other countries pero nadeny din sila.
For my brother, he was denied naman din pero I think it was due to his ‘Unemployed’ sa form niya.
Pero it seems like it’s a hit or miss talaga ang pagapply sa Korea. Hopefully the next time you apply, maapprove na.
Magkno po ung costs to go to korea
Hi! Depende po sa gusto ninyong gawin or puntahan eh. Personally, matagal po kasi ako dun and hindi po ako nagtipid. Pero the flights itself will be around 5K to 15k. Naka seat sale po kami and nakuha lang namin ng 5K ang roundtrip ticket. Sa visa naman po, wala pong payment needed unless magpaassist po kayo sa agency.
Hi maam! How much is the total expenses mo po?
Hi, is this for the entire trip? If yes, honestly I wasn’t able to track pero it was around 60-80k po.
@@samanthapizarro Hello there! Included na po Jan yung expenses dito sa pinas like visa and etc?
@@dorotheequilog8298 Yes, that estimate already includes visa fees, flights (I have booked an extension and have stayed for 13 days), my share of the airbnbs with my friends, food, shopping, etc.
@@samanthapizarro Thank you po!
Hi ask qlng Po sa pg re re apply ba ng visa uulit pa rin Po ba sa pg biometric? N denied Po ksi Ang visa q April,2023 lng Po...
Hi, sorry to hear that. Hmmm nagpabiometrics po kayo for Korean Visa application? For reapplying po, same procedure lang din po. Kailangan niyo parin po magbook ng appointment sa embassy every last Thursday of the month then resubmit po lahat ng requirements.
@@samanthapizarro Australian visa Po...
Tapos n aq mg biometric in ngalng dmating lng khapon ung visa q n denied...sa pg re apply uulit ba sa pg biometric...
@@mabeldelacruz4533 ay ganun po ba? Wala pa din po kasi akong experience sa pagapply sa Australian visa so di ko rin po macconfirm.
hirap talaga maging pinoy
nako, yes po. Madami din po kasi nagTNT na pinoy sa Korea :(
hello po, if hindi po maapprove ang visa, pwede ba uling mag apply agad agad, o kailangan maghintay pa ng ilang buwan??
Hi po, after 3 months pa po pwedeng magapply ulit.
@@samanthapizarro thanks po..
Ma'am Bakit Po PWD Ako Ng Unemployed Before Denied Nang Paano Po Bago Punpunta Sa Japan Tama Po?
Hi! Sorry po, do you mean dapat po ba na pumunta ng Japan kung PWD and nadeny ng visa paKorea?
