Hello, this is Kou of IMS Legal Professional Corporation. As we enter this year, there is no prospect of the COVID pandemic coming to an end. I believe that the pandemic has caused significant changes in lifestyles and management styles, etc., for individuals and companies alike.

Recently, it feels like we are receiving more inquiries about permanent residence applications than usual. Many of these inquiries are due to denials. The reasons for rejection of an application for permanent residence are usually only given in simple terms, so no one knows the specific details. Therefore, if you receive a notice of rejection, you must first go to the immigration office in person and ask the reason. However, many people are troubled because their Japanese is not very good, or they do not know how to ask.

We also offer a "Reason for Rejection Inquiry Service" for such clients. An administrative scrivener can accompany you when you go to the Immigration Bureau to hear the reasons for denial of your application. If you are worried about going to the Immigration Bureau alone, please use our service. If your application for permanent residence has been denied, it is impossible to determine whether or not you will be able to reapply without first understanding the detailed reasons for the denial. Also, depending on the reason for denial, you may be able to reapply immediately, or you may have to wait for several years. In addition to our service of hearing the reasons for rejection, we will work with you to come up with a concrete plan for the future, regardless of whether or not you can reapply.

In order to dispel any possibility of rejection, it is important to do a preliminary diagnosis. Even if you apply under the same circumstances as others, not everyone will be approved 100% of the time, so you must gather and prepare documents according to your own situation. As a permanent resident, you will have great advantages in your life in Japan, and for that reason, it is not an easy thing to get approved. Before applying, you should have a thorough preliminary examination by a specialist.

We have experienced and professional consultants who can help you with your application for permanent residency or application denial.
