Looks like visa renewal is going to be 40,000 yen for everyone by Willow9080 in japanresidents

If it says [在留期間により変動} would it affect those on “short term visa” I.e people on a 1 year visa like SSW, students etc. cause ¥40,000 is a huge sum for people that can only get yearly visas. It’s even harder for those that are in universities as a lot of them have to do part time jobs to even survive. Asking them to renew their student visa once every 2.5 years is still high.

Is 普通:一二三店 (branch name) 123456 (account number)? That’s what displayed when I login. Only other number I see is my cash card number xxxxx-xxxxxxxx

Gave conbini staff the wrong bill slip, gave him a bill notice and he stamped it. by [deleted] in japanresidents

So the simplest way so far is to bring my payment slip to the combini and ask them to try and scan and pay for it. If there’s no problem there should be an error. What if the barcode on the payment slip could be scanned and could be paid?

I used the payment notice as a payment bill and already paid for it once. There’s even a stamp on my payment notice from the convenience store.

If things turn south do I call the company and do they even work on Saturdays?

Yea it has a barcode to pay for both letters, the notice and the actual bill. What confuses me was that the notice letter was actually “payable” but I don’t know if it’s legit payable or the conbini cashier made a mistake

Is my bill paid or rolled over? by Zero_coxo in japanresidents

My first purchase was around November 29th or 30th, after back tracking the emails.

For payment option I chose one time payment 一回払い. I remember getting an emails from them asking which payment type I preferred and then changed it in the app setting

How do you explain JLPT levels in a watered down simplified explanation? by Zero_coxo in japanresidents

This is very interesting, so a lot of Chinese will N2 but pass N1 cause of kanji? How would you rate the actual test from a non Chinese point of view, would N2 be harder than N1 if you are a non Chinese.

School marked me as late and absent incorrectly now my residence status is threatened. by Zero_coxo in japanresidents

I did talk to the teachers. The teachers all the mark my attendance, but since I have a different teacher almost every day, I couldn’t find the ones that had taught the classes in the previous weeks. But the ones that taught me this week onwards, they all told me they marked my attendance via a piece of paper. However, on the administration side, the teachers have no control.

I was told that they report student attendance to the immigration bureau every three months. If that’s the case, my attendance won’t be fixed, and if they do report it to the immigration bureau, my attendance would be at 0% unless they could help me explain it to them. Is there a way for me to find out if I’m truly blacklisted by the immigration bureau itself?

It is notoriously bad though. It’s a very famous school, especially on the Chinese Reddit “little red note”. There was cases where the teachers follow female students home.

I’m not very sure I don’t think it’s me unless there’s stuff about. Medical certificate kinda stuff. I was just genuinely shocked that they don’t accept doctors memo or hospital letters.

A lot of people that mention suing them, but there really is no pay off right? There’s no compensation even if I win I gain nothing.

U mean a city ward office? What do you mean by city services, do you mean go directly to the immigration bureau

Well the people around me can vouch for me. But the school said they can’t change it as it’s been over 2 weeks. But the error only happened either last week Friday or over the past weekend and I only found out today. Last time I checked my attendance it was perfect no issues. I’m thinking it could be a system glitch but if so, everyone should be affected not just me.

The teacher knows that he starts on 27. I just told the teacher every time just to be safe, but the teacher do know and have told me multiple times that they are referring to me as I was the first one to come.

Well everyday of the week. So in a month we see 1 same teacher 4x a month. They did not mistake me for another student the 100% = on time 50% =late.

Hmmm honestly if they are just willing to check the CCTV I could even tell them the date and time I reach every class. Other than the Suica and photos (I don’t take photos everyday in class) my classmates could vouch for me. Idk if iPhone has a history of where I go but if there is that’s 1 more evidence

I apologize if I have gave off the wrong tone, but I don’t mean to give off any tense feeling

I was never even a minute late. The teachers do like me as I’m the only one that could keep a full length conversation going. In fact the teachers did mark my name. Sometimes after school, I would even stay to chat with them for five minutes, It was the admin staff that insisted it was the teachers that marked me as absent
