After marriage Insurance card

Hi All, Another question pertaining to getting Married and the insurance card! I was wondering if after marriage, I will still get the National Insurance and since My Fiance works for a rather large company and has her own insurance through her company, I wouldn't need to sign up for her insurance.
Instead I will continue my own insurance.
(Q) Will my Insurance bills and health cards be sent to her or will I still have them sent to me since the health card will be in my name??
I was told that after marriage the new wife receives her husbands health cards and statements>?
Is that true?
Anyone who is married that can help to answer this question would really appreciated
Thanks *_*

If she is enrolled in her employerfs health insurance scheme, and you have your certain income on your own that you are not eligible to be registered as her gdependenth on her companyfs scheme (there is an income threshold), yes, you continue your own enrolment with the national health insurance.
Then she gets her card, and you get your card. Separate.
The part about the wife (or the husband) receiving the health insurance cards/invoices/statements is IF the spouse is a gdependenth on the otherfs employer health insurance scheme, or if both are independent business owners enrolled in national health insurance scheme (as one household).

Oh I see! When you got married you had to sign as her guarantor right?
Do we need a health check when we get married also?
If Ifm in Japan I can continue working as my visa is prepared and also continue using my health insurance?
How soon was your wife able to obtain her actual visa?

We got married in another country, and reported the non-Japanese marriage to the Japanese authorities later, so I cannot answer the first two questions from my own experience. But the guarantor letter is something the Japanese spouse has to sign upon application for gspouse of Japanese nationalh visa or resident status, not when you get married. Third question: I believe I answered it on another thread of yours. We applied for a change from one of the gworkh resident status to gspouse of Japanese nationalh while staying in Japan, but the change took a few weeks (but that was many years ago).
One thing to note: once you are residing in Japan, you donft call it gvisa,h but you call it a gresident status.h This distinction can be important.
