Hi Holly, (and everyone else)!
The Korean consulate says an employer may apply for an issuance # for you to apply to your Visa application. I am still waiting for clarification as to whether this issuance # will "stand in" for that BA/uni degree.
As always, I would be greatful if anyone with experience with this subject could provide insight or their information.
With thanks!
