2019年7月から永住ビザの書類要件が明確化し、必要書類が増えたことは、以前ご案内したとおりです。
特に問い合わせが多かった「年金記録」についてですが、永住ビザ申請時点から遡って2年間（24か月）の完納した記録が必要です。これが許可、不許可の審査に影響します。直近2年に「免除」「猶予」「未納」にある場合は要件を満たしません。繰り返しになりますが直近24か月の納付済み記録が必要です。
As previously announced, the requirements for permanent visa have been clarified since July 2019, and the number of required documents has increased.
Regarding the “pension record” that we received inquiries at most, it is necessary to have a record of full payment for two years (24 months) from the timing of applying for a permanent visa. This affects the approval / disapproval examination. If you are “exempted”, “graced”, or “unpaid” in the last two years, you will not meet the requirements. Again, the recorded payment for the last 24 months is required.
