I am a third generation Japanese American (half chinese). My grandparents were the first generation to move here and based on what I could find online I can get a long term resident visa right off the bat for up to 5 years. I have plenty of family in Japan whom I'm close with and can vouch for me, and I also have all of the documents like birth certificates and such. Is it possible for me to become a permanent resident in Japan if I get a job, become fluent in Japanese, etc? Also, all of my family lives in Hokkaido, does that matter if I wanted to move to Tokyo/Central Japan?
For context, I'm 18 years old, female, and only have my highschool diploma. I was thinking of getting an associate's in nursing but I'm not super ambitious school wise. Also, I was worried about the fact I had an IEP in highschool for "emotional disturbance" and I'm not sure if thats a reason they use to deny me a visa or citizenship, since I'm not allowed to own firearms or join the military due to it (not that I wanted to)
