Hello,
I'm coming to Japan with a 2 year working holiday visa and I have some questions regarding it. I have in about 4-5 weeks from now.
- Is it possible to contact now, have my girlfriend in Japan check the houses, and have it reserved a month from now? Or does it only make sense to do in when I arrive in Japan and have it sorted out and have the apartment ready 2 weeks later? Im just worried that at the end of my visa I'll still have an extra 2 weeks of rent to pay even though I left the country because I got the apartment late when I entered Japan.
- I'm going to rent from suumo as a 2 year contract but Im unsure if they will ask for proof of income or funds, I wonder what can I show since I'm a freelancer? Would a bank statement showing savings and balance be sufficient or do I need to provide my Canadian tax forms? I don't have my tax papers for 2023/2024 as I started working in 2024 and have a tax form available for 2024 before I enter Japan most likely but unsure if I will have it in hand or not. What else should I prepare for in this case?
Thank you!
