I have an instructor Visa and wanted to engage in tour-guide activities for which I would need permission. I applied in October at the Minato office Tokyo Regional Immigration Bureau, which apparently was a huge mistake because it’s been almost 5 months and I haven’t heard anything back. I’m not sure how my part-time employer is supposed to usually wait 6 month before starting a part time gig…. Luckily they’ve been patient with me but does anyone have any experience or advice from a simular situation?
