@thun1guest
Thank you so much for your answer

Hello Everyone,
I am planning to apply for naturalization but I dont know that that i should apply through lawyer or by myself.
if anyone have experienced applied by himself or applied through lawyer. please give me your opinions and suggestions.

Thanks,

It’s better to do it by yourself. I did it through a lawyer but he didn’t do much and I did almost all the preparation. Of course, Not all the lawyers are the same but my lawyer was of no help. You can fill the form by yourself and collect all the necessary docs.

Best of Luck 🤞

@kabuki26,
Thank you very much for quick answer.
i contacted to one lawyer in my city and he said that he can only fill the documents for me and then i can go by myself to the homukyuku and also the lawyer fee was high.
So, i will fill all the documents by myself and will apply by myself.

yes, lawyer will just fill the form but you will have to go and submitted the docs. No need to pay high fees to lawyer. cheers

Hi wikkir
I think Lawer is just waste of money. You can collect documents by yourself from city office in1 or 2 days. Documents you can prepare by yourself. You can take help from below site,

If you do by yourself then you can present it in better way. If you have problems filling the form you can take help from any of your Japanese friends. Good luck buddy.

@Saadnk,
Thank you very much for the information.
i will prepare my all documents and then will next month.

Do any anyone have experience, how long its take after submitted renunciation certificate in himequok, already cancelled my current nationality as per homequok request, currently with no nationality.

@ ZZZ1,
i think after submitting the renunciation certificate it will take a month or two and also at the same time you can try to check the kanpo. sometime the homukyuku staff notify you late because of their busy schedule. anyway good luck

Hello everyone.
I have a question that when they will take the Japanese written test. On the day of the application or after submitting the application?
Please answer to my question.
Thanks

Hello everyone
I have a question that how about the credit card record? It’s affects for the application? If someone have this experience please share with me

@Apsa1
No one can predict, it's all depend on officer, they can test you on day of application, or after application, in my case they took my test on day of interview, which was after 6 months after submission. You should be ready for test each time you visit himequok.good luck

@Suzu
Of course it affect on all utilities bills, credit cards payments, bank loans, nenkin payments, make sure you pay before due date for the success of your application.
Good luck

Hi Nicolas,
Thank you for the update on your situation.

I had very different information from the embassy this April…
Did you get these information from the embassy?
Also, are you sure that the loss of nationality is automatic?
Because i don't understand how they could make it automatic as we cannot become apatride…

Thank you

@Nicolas

I have also heard about something like you can apply then cancel, but not sure if it work
