My husband and I may be moving to Japan because I received a teaching job offer there. I would be on a work visa sponsored by the school.
My husband works remotely for a company outside Japan and may earn more than JPY 1.3 million annually. We were told that this could affect his eligibility for a dependent visa.
Has anyone here been in a similar situation?
If your spouse worked remotely for a foreign company, were they still able to stay on a dependent visa?
Did immigration care more about annual income or actual working hours?
If dependent visa was not possible, what alternative visa did your spouse use?
Are there any legal workarounds or common solutions people use in this situation?
We are trying to understand realistic options before starting the visa process. Any personal experiences or advice would really help. Thank you!
