confusion in confucianism

So yesterday we go to a meeting for NET's held by Hwasung Educational Board, and there we receive two very rambling and incoherent books, supposedly meant to help newcomers to Korea survive, and to give us information about the contract, shopping etc.

One of the items stated that, when you have lived in Korea for more than a year, then, in order to renew your visa, you have to have a Korean Police Clearance certificate, which your school is supposed to arrange for you!!! However, Suwon Immigration is waiting for what we believe to be the South African clearance certificate.

So who do we believe?

And, if we now do get our SA clearance certificates, and we got to the Immigration department on the 20th of April, will we be told that we have the wrong certificate?

One of the ideals of Confucianism is harmony in the society by everyone knowing their place and how to act in that place.

One very very important facet to this, which the Koreans seem to have forgotten, is that in order for you to act according to principles and rules, you need to know what they are! Especially if you were not raised in the culture. It's not like we're stupid, we are just acting on the incomplete information given to us.
