Japanes perminent resident but have foreign work for 3 years

Hello. I have a question about permanent residency in Japan. Can anyone with similar circumstances or experience give me some advice?

My information about permanent residency is:

I have been living and working in Japan for 7 years. My wife has lived with me for 6 years and my daughter was born in Japan and has been living with her parents for 4 years now.

Nenshyu:

2023: 500,000 yen (2 dependents in addition to 1 wife and 1 child)

2024: 520,000 yen (1 dependent in addition to 1 wife and 2 children)

2025~2027: estimated to be around 550,000 yen

From July 2024, I will be on a business trip outside of Japan (the company has written a business trip request letter 出張命令 to explain to the Bureau later).

Working abroad in Japan for 6 months or 1 year, then returning to Japan for about 2 weeks to 1 month to report and then continue on the business trip. Continuously like that for about the next 3 years (ie around June 2027, I will have worked in Japan for the same company for 10 years).

I plan to apply for permanent residence after 10 years.

At that time, there are 2 issues that I am worried about.

First, in the last 3 years, I have worked on a business trip and left Japan for a total of about 10 months out of 10 years, with the conditions I wrote above, is there a high chance of successful explanation?

Second, if problem 1 is OK, can I apply for my wife and children as well? Because in the last 3 years, my wife and children did not have an address in Japan (although they lived with me for 6 and 4 years before).

Thank you. I wish you good health.
