Please correct your terminology; what exactly have you applied for? It's easy to figure out: it's what's written on the application form you have submitted.

@Firas are you sure? Every time I applied for an extension of my period of stay I had to hand my zairyu card and passport to immigration, and they were only returned to me after I got my extension (the zairyu card would be a new one), and I assumed you can't leave the country without a passport... I checked on the immigration bureau website and it doesn't say anything. Do you have more details?

Foreign nationals who enter Japan on a work visa or student visa may extend or renew their visa when the permitted duration is about to expire. In short, this is a visa extension. To do so you need to apply for a extension of period of stay at the immigration.

@krr Your passport and current residence card are not supposed to be kept, it's the first time I've heard of this happening... Maybe your situation is special?

Strange... everyone I know (different companies and different countries) hands in their zairyu card and passport, and we always joke about how stressful it is to go around without ID. By the way I am from a country with a very strong passport and good reputation, so I doubt it is about my nationality.
