・Points to keep in mind when applying

1. authenticity of marriage

The Immigration Bureau does not uniformly deny a wide variety of values, but the following is an example of a pattern that is particularly carefully examined, so if it is applicable, it will be necessary to prove it firmly.

・When the dating period is extremely short (so-called speed marriage)

・If you are not holding a wedding ceremony or reception party, etc.

・If you have not greeted both families face-to-face

・When age is far

・If you met on SNS etc.

​

2. Can I expect to live a stable life after receiving permission?

In obtaining a spouse visa, the important point is whether you can maintain your livelihood in Japan. If the income of the Japanese spouse is low, the probability of disapproval is high.Uniform annual income of XX million yen or moreAlthough the standard is not publicized, it is safer to consider supplementary materials if the couple is on the verge of living.

 

The above are the main ones, there are other points as well.

Each person's situation is different, so I can't say that even this is the only thing you need to clear, but it's a point I'd like you to keep in mind first.​Please refer to it.

​

​for example

  • I want to get a spouse visa, but I don't know how to collect the documents or how to fill out the application form.

  • The annual income of the Japanese spouse is low, and I am worried about getting a spouse visa.

​◇ When changing from applying for refugee status to spouse visa
Even if you can prove the above two points properly, the current situation is that it is very difficult to get permission to change from a refugee application to a spouse visa.
In particular, since the “Review of the Refugee Recognition System” from 2018, cases where permission to change to a spouse visa have become rare.
In practice, however, weEven as of November 2022We have a track record of permission to change from applying for refugee status to "Spouse or Child of Japanese National".
