Concerning Spouse Visa

Dear,
I'm currently living in Belgium (and have no work) - I'm a Belgian with a master's degree (in psychology) and my native tongue is Dutch. My girlfriend in Japan - our relationship is 1 year old - has a bachelor's degree and has a part-time job. She currently lives with her parents, who are both retired. (I studied Japanese, but have not yet taken a JLPT test, I consider my level around JLPT4)
We were thinking of marrying in Japan and then applying for a spouse visa for me. I think most of you already know which problems we might encounter. 1) As our relationship is only one year old - my girlfriend read that having a 4 years relationship is considered good, how can we prove the genuineness of our relationship/marriage? We have enough pictures of us together, enough pictures of me with her family/friends and of her with my family. We can even prove that we have talked to each other every day through Line/Skype.
2) Secondly, our financial status. How can we prove we have a stable financial situation. If my girlfriend informs immigration of her part-time job's income and my mother-in-law-to-be acts as a guarantor, would this be sufficient? I could add financial support from my home country as well. I read somewhere on this forum that writing a letter explaining that I would be able to quickly find a job can support the application in a positive way.
Thanks for reading. I'm currently also looking into student visa and looking for a company to work for.

Hi here a Dutch person living in Japan.
Your gf can just apply for a visa. She or her family can be your guarantee so about your job is not a big issue.
My wife and I also got married after knowing each other little bit more than a year and all went smooth. Just make sure you can proof your relationship is serieus

If you have a masterfs in anything just look for a job in japan and apply for a work visa. One year relationship = marriage , is a big risk to both parties.
