  • Join us on our journey as we tackle one of the most challenging tasks: moving! In this vlog, we share the ups and downs of packing up our apartment in Osaka, the struggles of organizing and cleaning, and the little adventures we have along the way. From cleaning the new house to dealing with unexpected mishaps like losing a phone in the ocean, this video is full of real-life moments. We also take some time to enjoy the local scenery, visit a charming café, and unwind at a public bath.
    In the end, the help from our family and the careful handling of our belongings by the moving company make the transition smoother. We're excited to finally settle into our new, quieter home in Ine, Kyoto Prefecture and leave behind the noise of our old apartment.

    Yes, moving is stressful. Good news for your husband, he's in a position I would like to be in in the coming years. Otsukaresama.

    Renovating the house and moving are supposed to be the most stressful periods of your life. But it will be wonderful when it's all done! You can design / decorate it exactly how you like. I believe your family's health will be better in countryside because of the cleaner air and water. Congrats on the PR for your husband! It's every expat's dream. Visas are so stressful. I'm sure you know the feeling - never knowing if you'll have to leave the country. Moving companies in Korea and Japan are unique in the world - amazing service! I enjoyed the vlog! keep it up!

    I know all about moving, 7 times in 20 years... I got really tired with cleaning the new house so I organised contract cleaners to detail my new place of residence. And, then I fumigate the house with those cans of insecticide for fleas, spiders and cockroaches etc. I believe it was money well spent.
    As for your phone you can jump into the water and retrieve it at a later date.

    How long has your husband been living in Japan? I heard in this video he received permanent residency. My husband has been struggling with always receiving only 1 year haigusha visa which negates application for permanent residency (minimum 3 year visa term is required). He's been living with me in Osaka for 6 years and we been married for 9 years but he only receives the 1 year period of stay every time we renew and every time renew process is so tiring and makes me feel so stress. I'm curious how long your husband lived here so far and how you achieved the permanent visa.
    ありがと

      I'm Kiki's husband. She asked me to answer the question: I've been in Japan 8 years, from the U.S. I too only received 1 year visas every year for about 5 years. Very stressful. After getting married I had applied for the spouse visa and got a 3 year visa and from the 3 year visa I applied for the permanent visa. Few things I learned about the visas: First, a good job is important. Also, working in the same job for many years is also important. Never skip or be late for paying taxes, pension and health insurance. If you are late paying or don't pay then these actions will impact the length and approval of your visa and it will also make the permanent visa impossible to get. They expect perfect payments for the past three years.
      So in short: Keep the same job, pay pension, health insurance and resident taxes all on time for 3 years and you should be fine. Good luck!

      ​@@DIYJapan Thank you for your kind response!
      My husband has always been on that haigusha spousal visa and every time has only been 1 year period of stay for all those visa. We own our home and he has always had the same job (high salary) all these 6 years and we also have statistically very high savings (4千万円 something like that). He has also never missed any payments and always fulfill all social obligations such as nenkin and of course all city tax and income taxes on time. Perfect records. But still only receiving just 1 year every time.
      This will be our 7th year to renew spouse visa now and I'm really worried only to receiving 1 year again..... :(
      We are so stress and really consider to leave japan because its so unstable trying to live by only 1 years plan every time. :(

      @@rw7939 I recommend you involve an immigration attorney. From your description, it sounds like you're doing all the right things. Maybe there is something missing. Or maybe need to apply at a different immigration office.
