A list of every document we submitted (and how to get them!) for our Long-Term Resident Visa.
While not impossible, getting the Long-Term Resident Visa (定住者 – Teijyuusha) isn’t easy. To qualify for this visa with ancestry, you need to be (at most) third-generation Japanese. You also need to fly to Japan to apply for your Certificate of Eligibility and be ready for some hard work and anxiety!
While the Impossible Burger is by far one of the best veggie burgers I’ve had – I don’t think it’s worth the steep price tag.
