Even if he had a COE he wouldn't have a visa...COE doesn't guarantee a visa and you cannot enter the country on one, it's written at the bottom of it.

Okay, well what kind of house are you living in now? Is it possible to have your mail forwarded to your employer's office? I assume not much mail is coming to you now anyway. Otherwise try to get...

The thing is, I'd prefer you sell coke or traffic women. It wouldn't affect people like me and would just be the police's problem. The thing is that things aren't that great for gaijins, and they are...

I'm not talking about gaijin clubs. I have one lone gaijin friend in Japan. Everybody else is Japanese. I have no idea how gaijin clubs function, and didn't pretend to.

I'm not talking about スナック...

Well it's the same thing- it's a visa problem regardless if they want the person to start right away. Can't start working without a visa so they don't want someone they have to sponsor. The reasons...

Well, you are only supposed to do that until you are 22. After that, you're not supposed to do that according to Japan, which unlike England does not allow dual-nationality. Arguments about middle...

Yeah but you can't get a visa for that and the person she's going with doesn't appear to be her spouse so she's screwed. :P



That would be all well and good if she didn't need a visa. You can't...

Well, I don't watch porn so it's not like I've seen HUNDREDS from either end of the globe. Maybe I've been especially unlucky with white dudes and especially lucky with j-guys (not that I'm a girl...

As far as I know there is no internship visa. Only a trainee visa, which you can Google the requirements for, but I don't think you can get one with a 1 month commitment.

Are you telling me you have bought a plane ticket and successfully boarded an aircraft with the name in the passport and the name on the ticket being different? If so, your airport should probably...

Really? Well, so long as their skills are up to par I guess that's good for them! Thank you for the correction! :)

No matter what non-English speaking country you go to, if you don't speak that country's language then your field of expertise doesn't matter, obviously you will not be able to work there.

My...

Some things you need to keep in mind which may or may not have already been mentioned on this thread:

In order to have a work visa sponsored for teaching English, since you are not a native...

Companies that require applicants to have a work visa do not sponsor work visas, that's why you see that written there. They want you to have a visa because they wouldn't sponsor it for you. Most...

Would probably be easier to do it from Germany as an embassy in any given country is supposed to only help the people from that country and the people from the country the embassy represents. So if...

Do they not allow spaces, either? I have a composed first name that has two names in it, with just a space in between. Would they make me put it as one huge long first name with no space? That would...

The reason the embassy reacted that way is that if your husband is over 22 (I should hope so...) he is not legally allowed (by Japan, the US allows it) to have dual nationality. Sure, he can...

I'm glad to see you've gotten some responses for lawyers already and that you're getting good advice. Stay strong and let us know when your divorce is successful! :)

Of course I am not in your situation, I'm just trying to put things in perspective for you. Things in the Japanese workplace are harder than in the typical Western workplace. You're not praised as...

You know, every gaijin male likes to say that and yet most of the J-guys I've had relations with have been larger than my boyfriends back home. Especially these days, where Japanese guys often top...

I would suggest applying from the States first and if that doesn't pan out you can always go there as a tourist and try to get work there. Just realize you will not have much time to do it in- it's...

No problem. You really want to be 100% sure aout your visa status because though they don't happen OFTEN, police raids in clubs known for employing foreigners do happen and it's mass deportation when...

I think your only option is to legally change her name in Japan to have Emily-Lynne as a first name, or have a correction made to the British one so that she no longer has a middle name on the...

I have never been married, but how can any of these things be hard to think about before getting married? People take marriage too lightly and don't spend enough time not married, but dating and...

The reason I asked if those top hostess clubs were gaijin ones, as in gaijin hostesses, is because that is what I was talking about in the first place, since the OP is a gaijin wanting to work as a...
