I'm a fourth-year university student and I'm graduating in March next year. Now I have an appointment from a ** company. Can I submit an application to change my "Student" to a work visa now?Or do you have to wait until after graduation to apply?
In order to prevent the change of "study abroad" to "Specialist in Humanities and International Business" and "Engineer", the Immigration Bureau began accepting applications in December of the previous year. If the change application is approved, the Immigration Bureau will send you a postcard notification of the completion of the examination when you are about to graduate. However, please remember that when you go to collect your passport, you will need to submit your graduation certificate in addition to the postcard and the fee payment form with a 4,000 yen stamp on it.
I am a vocational school student and am scheduled to graduate in March next year. I plan to marry a Japanese national as soon as I graduate and change my status of residence to "spouse of a Japanese national". However, I have heard that once a vocational school student returns to his or her home country after graduation, he or she will no longer be able to apply for a labor visa to enter Japan. If I change my status of residence to a spouse visa after graduation, can I change it to a work visa when I find a suitable job in the future?
If your visa is not interrupted and you continue to live in Japan, you can change to a work visa. There are similar cases of clients who have graduated from an accounting college and have been admitted to a university and extended their student visa. However, when I found a job as an accountant, I was able to change my status of residence to "Specialist in Humanities and International Business" based on my vocational school education.
