Transferring Pension

I'm currently sorting through EVERYTHING I bought back from Japan with me, so you'll get all your new blogs soon. I came across some documents that I actually completed when I came back from Japan, which was to do with pensions. This took me a while to figure out because it was complicated. Would you like to know how to transfer your pension to you from Japan? People say you can't. The things is... you can.

    This is an important topic and it would be great to have a how-to. But are you referring to the pension lump-sum withdrawal? I assisted a foreign resident leaving Japan, serving as his tax rep to send the remaining 20% of withheld tax. It takes a bit of effort and it was a while ago, so I don't remember the details.

    Unfortunately I don't know the answer to this, but as it's something I'll most likely be doing at some point I'll be eagerly following along to see if anyone else knows the process.

Japanese names you love?

I blogged yesterday about this year's top baby names in Japan, and there was quite a focus on nature and calmness in the most popular picks. I was wondering if there are any Japanese names you love for the meaning behind them. Maybe you have a friend, coworker, or even family member with a beautiful name. I'd be happy to hear what it is, and why you like it so much!
