One Year in Korea with Cash Back!

At this time of year, many contracts finish, so these people need to know about their pension returns before they leave the Hermit Kingdom.
I’m sure if you pay into the Korean National Pension, you want to know about getting it returned.
Whether or not you get your pension back is up to your nationality, but if you have an H-2, E-8 or E-9 visa, you can get a pension return no matter where you are from. I called the pension office only two times, so it is better to ask them personally to check what your personal situation is and how much money you have paid into it so far. I found both an English and a Chinese service number. For English, call 02-2179-8719, or 02-2176-8719, and for Chinese call 02-2176-8733.
I recommend asking not only about the policy of your personal situation on getting your pension return, but also whether your school or company pays into it for you or not. One of my husband’s past schools took money from his salary as pension but they didn’t pay into it for 6months. Most schools pay pension by law, but to make certain is safer. Better safe than sorry.
