Questions about Transitioning from Tourist to Finding a Job and Work Visa
Hello,
I am curious as someone who is neurodivergent with additional invisible disabilities, how hard is it to go from being a tourist with disabilities to finding a job that would sponsor a work visa in Japan knowing that I have said disabilities?
I would be interested in one day getting permanent residency or naturalizing but that would require me to live and work in Japan for numerous years under either a work visa, business investor visa, or potentially a religious activities visa with the support of a local sponsor. Unless I were divinely blessed with a Japanese spouse, the spousal visa option is unlikely.
I was told when I was younger to try a working holiday visa and try to make connections during the time I am in Japan but x years passed and I am now 32 so that is no longer an option.
I would like to live and stay in Japan longer than the 90 days visa free and potentially rent a place but that would also be difficult for a foreigner with disabilities to do without a good support system in place.
I am considering a Japanese Language School with a Student Visa for two years, making connections, and transitioning to either a work visa or business investor visa based on connections made but I have no clue how difficult that would be.
If anyone has experience or thoughts on all of this, please give me your input. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Sam
