TEIJU VISA / Long Term Residence / Nikkei Jin’s Wife

Hi Everyone!
I’m from the Philippines and I’m feeling quite nervous about my visa application appointment next week. I am applying for a Long Term Resident Visa.

I booked my appointment directly with VFS and did not go through an agency.

My husband currently has a Resident Certificate valid for 3 years (previously it was only 1 year).

I have prepared the following requirements:

  • Passport – original and copy
  • Birth Certificate
  • Marriage Certificate (issued September 27, 2024)
  • PSA Authorization Letter
  • Family Tree
  • Couple photos (I attached printed screenshots of our social media posts throughout our relationship, 1 picture per year from 2019 to 2024)
  • Wedding photos
  • Visa Application Form
  • Passport-sized photo with white background (45mm x 35mm)
  • Certificate of Eligibility
  • Koseki Tohon (family registration)
  • Husband’s Tax Certificate
  • Photocopy of my husband’s Residence Card
  • Husband’s Certificate of Employment (I left the Profession/Occupation and Position fields blank on the application form as advised)

Does anyone have any tips or advice on what I should do to avoid getting denied?
Thank youuuuuu <3
