What has been the quickest time anyone has received their immigration result?
This is mainly out of interest. I took my application for extension to immigration on November 29th, and I received my postcard today. It was barely even a week. I was really surprised. In the past, I've always waited a very long time. Obviously I don't know how many years I've got yet, but I'm just neterested to know.
A twenty year old something, who came to experience working life and travel in Japan. What will she experience? What will she see? What will she do? Find out in this amazing travel blog and Jvlog!
That was the ORIGINAL tag line. Now I have left, but will continue updating.

I wonder if November is the best season for getting an residency update. In Kanto, it was almost always the full 3 months. Even when my employer sent a letter saying they were in a rush, the Immigration still needed multiple phone calls to process everything (saying they never received the letter, and then saying it was there all along...) In Kansai, it was a lot quicker. But still took about 2 months...

I wanted to get my visa as spouse of Japanese at Yokohama office. They told me I have to fly back to my homecountry and apply for a visa from there, because I entered Japan with a toursit visa. I got CoE from them a few weeks later by mail and another paper saying I should leave the country to get a visa. I then went to Shinagawa office in hope they don't send me back. And what happened: we waited for 30 minutes and I had a residence card. There was no problem.
