永住権の審査は厳格で、不許可になる事例も少なくありません。ただし、よくあるケースを知って対策を取れば、許可の可能性を高められます。
Permanent residency screening in Japan is very strict, and many applications are rejected. However, by understanding common rejection cases and preparing countermeasures, you can increase your chances of approval.
① 転職直後の場合
転職してすぐは収入の安定性が疑われやすいです。給与明細や雇用契約書を提出し、今後も継続して働けることを示すことが大切です。
After a Job Change
When you have just changed jobs, your income stability may be questioned. It is important to submit pay slips and employment contracts to show that you can continue working steadily.
② 収入が基準ギリギリの場合
生活費や扶養家族が多いと「独立生計能力」に疑問を持たれます。預貯金通帳や副収入の資料を添付し、安定性を補強しましょう。
Income Just Meets the Minimum Standard
If your living expenses or dependents are high, authorities may doubt your ability to support yourself independently. Submitting bank statements or proof of additional income can help strengthen your application.
③ 出国が多い場合
長期間の海外滞在があると「生活の本拠が日本にない」と判断されかねません。出国理由を説明し、日本での生活実態を示す資料（住居契約、公共料金の支払い等）を添えることが有効です。
Frequent Overseas Travel
If you spend long periods abroad, the authorities may conclude that Japan is not your primary place of residence. Providing explanations for your absences and attaching documents such as lease agreements or utility bills in Japan can be effective.
④ 自営業・スタートアップの場合
開業間もないと事業の安定性を疑われます。決算書や契約書、取引実績を示す資料で裏付けを強化する必要があります。
Self-Employed or Start-Up Entrepreneurs
If your business is new, its stability may be questioned. Strengthen your application by submitting financial statements, contracts, and proof of business transactions.
