What are some of the easiest countries to get work visas for with US citizenship?
It's not that 'people from other countries don't like it when US citizens try to travel the world', it's just that without a good degree (or for a few countries, trade qualifications) in an occupation in which the country has a skill shortage, you will find it absolutely impossible to emigrate anywhere you would be prepared to live. The UK and other European countries, Australia, New Zealand, Canada all have strict skill requirements and so does any other worthwhile country. It's not 'much easier' if you have qualifications, it's the ONLY way you will be accepted as an immigrant unless you're eligible to apply as the partner of a citizen or PR. Until you turn 31, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland (you must be a college student or recent graduate) and ROK have (usually) 12 month working holiday arrangements with the USA for which there are no skill requirements.
How to apply work permit in Malaysia?And what papers are needed for applying?
First of all, you have to ensure that the offer which you received was a genuine offer. When a Malaysian employer employs a foreigner, it is the responsibility of the employer to apply for a work permit for it's foreign employee. The Malaysian employer has to submit various documents to the immigration department and to justify that why it has to employ a foreigner instead of a local. The only documents the employer require from you are a photocopy of your passport, a medical examination certificate and your academic certificates and any other relevant supporting documents eg. a reference letter from your previous employer. For real and valid application and if all the documents are in order and the employer is able to justify why it needs to employ you, then an approval should be given out within 1 month. If the documents are not in order, the application could take months to process. For your information, if you were asked to apply for a work permit by your employer, then it is safe to say that the offer was a fake one. All documents for work permit application are to be submitted to the immigration department in Malaysia and there is no way you could do that ( the immigration won't even entertain you ). Accordingly all employers are to submit their applications on their own and most do that especially established and big companines but in reality there are some smaller companines who opt to use the services of agents which are not that reliable. Cheating by agents are not uncommon here. Whatever it is, remember always deal directly with your employer. Even if an agent require documents/ money from you, do not give to the agent directly. Verify with your prospective employer first. How to verify ? Do not just call the telephone number given to you by your agent. If possible seek the assistance from the Malaysian consulate office or at least you post the company name here (YA) so that we could try check if this company really exists. Just be careful, there are many cheatings going around.
A-3 Visa necessary for entrance to south korea?
Legal questions directed at JAG will solve most of your problems. The state department has the rules for entering South Korea (Republic Of Korea) right here: http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw... And states: ENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS: A passport is required. U.S. passport holders may enter the Republic of Korea without a visa for a stay of up to 30 days for tourism or transit to another country. When staying for more than 30 days or for any purpose other than tourism or transit, the U.S. passport holder must obtain a visa prior to entry. Generally, individuals staying in Korea for longer than 90 days must apply for an Alien Registration Card. Individuals who plan to stay longer than the period authorized must apply to Korean Immigration for an extension in advance. Individuals who stay in Korea longer than the period authorized by Korean Immigration are subject to fines and may be required to pay the fines before departing the country. Changes of status from one type of visa to another (from tourism to teaching, for example) are normally not granted in the Republic of Korea but may be obtained at a Korean Embassy or Consulate after departing Korea. Active-duty U.S. military personnel may enter the Republic of Korea under the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) with proper Department of Defense (DOD) identification and travel orders. Every civilian accompanying the force, including DOD civilian employees, invited contractors and family members, must have a valid passport to enter Korea and should obtain an A-3 SOFA visa prior to arrival in Korea. Active duty military personnel should obtain a tourist passport prior to leaving the U.S. to accommodate off-duty travel elsewhere in Asia. DOD travelers should consult the DOD Foreign Clearance Guide before leaving the U.S. Exit permits are not required to leave Korea. However, if a parent requests through the Korean Immigration Office that a travel restriction be placed on a child, the child is likely to be prevented from departing Korea. And... please... be careful if you notice your plane ticket says "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" because it is guaranteed not to be as fun as South Korea is. :P
