Upon being hired I was given two official start dates-- May 9th or June 20th. I decided to take the earlier (May) date but in doing that the Japanese Visa process would be slighty different. Under normal circumstances the employer would outright sponsor the candidate in order to work in Japan, however the paperwork takes up to two months to officially complete and I had missed that deadline if I wished for a May departure.
So instead, I had to independently apply for a Japanese working holiday Visa in person downtown at the Japanese Consulate General. This required me to do a bit of running around but nevertheless it was quick and painless. I picked up the Visa printed in my Canadian passport yesterday morning and I officially have the last travel document necessary for my trip! Yay!
So you're interested in applying for a Japanese Working Holiday Visa too you say? Sure, check it out!
