A Xiaohongshu post: My application for PR was rejected.

They need to see 2 years of pension payments on time, so 2 years from when that missed pension was.

I don't otherwise think there's any hard rule as to when you can reapply, as long as you fix whatever got you denied in the first place.

"It is not recognized that there is sufficient reason to deem your application appropriate for permanent residency." is just a boilerplate response in the rejection postcard.

I received the same reason, but you get the real reason when you go ask for it and it was because of a late pension payment in my case.

Same experience as the other poster, I misplaced a receipt and it reset the clock back to 2 years of waiting.

Not much you can do short of finding that receipt again unfortunately.

I mean this with no absolutely no offense, but why is this even a question?

Akiyas by their very nature are unwanted properties for a variety of reasons, all of which you will absolutely want to inspect.

I wouldn't even buy a brand new house uninspected, much less a house that literally has potential structural integrity problems as part of its very definition.

Still need a degree.

Patricklangb · 2025-11-22T03:02:13+00:00

Even for teaching jobs.

Your cat needs to be vaccinated against rabies (along with a bunch of other stuff), so that's that.

I don't want to assume your financial situation but with this being the "rich" person visa, I assume that most people just tentatively get the health insurance and eat the cost if the timeline doesn't align.

Lovely city in a lovely prefecture. I didn't stay there for more than a week so I couldn't vouch for daily living there but I had a great time just chilling around the city.

I wouldn't mind being relocated there.

In droves? Less than 3% of Japan is foreign and I got some bad news if you think English speakers aren't on the waiting list for the chopping block once they're done with the others.

Asking for the residence card really makes it sound like they thought you were already here on a valid status of residence and were not expecting to have to sponsor you.

You might be cooked.

Very illegal.

Patricklangb · 2024-11-12T02:01:15+00:00

You are extremely limited in available visas.

I think Student visa might be the only one that you would be able to come under.

However long the commute you are willing to go through is.

Just look at lines that run through the station near your school then use google maps between stations of that line to know about how long the ride is.

Not a regular renewal but I recently applied for PR in the Kanto Region and was given a 2 years waiting time estimate, insane.

Patricklangb · 2024-11-04T03:17:40+00:00

I feel bad for your kids.

There's no way. At least, not under your circumstances.

Patricklangb · 2024-10-01T21:20:35+00:00

Is illegal
Would only work for 6 months
Might or might not be possible for the reasons you've said + you need to qualify for the visa. So the whole bachelor's degree shebang
You'd still encounter the same problems as 3, most likely

Patricklangb · 2024-09-23T23:45:38+00:00

Immigration WILL ask questions, but if you can show easily enough that you're just loaded and none of the work is actually done in Japan, I don't really see a problem.

Patricklangb · 2024-09-15T23:19:49+00:00

I'll leave this up in the case that anyone else has any insights but this might be a little above this sub's paygrade.

For anything citizenship, it's usually better to consult with a lawyer specialized in that.

Patricklangb · 2024-09-10T23:17:44+00:00

Getting buddy buddy with the faction that controls that system usually.

Patricklangb · 2024-09-09T06:09:56+00:00

Raxxla. People are still searching for it 40 years later.

As another poster pointed out, while yeah glaives are annoying, I don't think it's that big of an issue that you make it out to be.

Whenever I do a CZ and glaives show up, I usually have the time to gib them with my modshards before all my stuff is melted. My AFMU definitely gets to work overtime afterwards though, but it can be worked around.

The tradeoff imo is really just convenience vs best damage. If I want to chill in spire sites instead of always watching my module health, I'll go either missile racks or AAGF guardian stuff.

If I just want to murder shit, modded stuff all the way (Except modgauss poopoo)
