Change of status after marriage in Japan

Hello,

To begin, I�fd like to share info about my case.

Facts: I�fm not Japanese, I might be qualified for PR at time of my wedding, planning to get married to a US Citizen

My question is, can my future husband apply for change of status in Japan after we get married without going back to the US? Tickets are so expensive to go back and worth waiting for the COE so I�fm just curious if anyone had the same experience. Please shed some light!!

Thank you and Yoroshiku!!

The final decision is up to the immigration office.
You can make an application for change of status, make your case and hope that they accept your application.
Many people have successfully proceed with the change of status, but some had to go through the COE-visa route.
So, apply and hope for the best.

might be qualified for PR at time of my wedding
Yes, it would help if your get your PR and apply for change of status to Spouse.
If not, then it will be just change of status to dependent, which may likely be rejected.
What visa/status is your soon-to-be husband ?

Thank you for the answer!

He is coming as a tourist at first. Do you think that is a red flag to the immigration?
