[Dependent Visa Approval Case] Vietnamese International Student Invites Spouse from Overseas

Case Overview｜International Student Invites Spouse to Japan on a Dependent Visa

In this case, a Vietnamese international student enrolled at a school in Japan consulted us about inviting a spouse who was living overseas on a dependent visa. We organised the explanation of the student’s specific situation – such as income level, part-time work-hour restrictions, and future living plans – and then structured and substantiated the required documents, which ultimately led to approval.

• Status of Residence: Student (currently enrolled, with part-time work-hour restrictions)
• Consultation: Applying for a dependent visa to invite a spouse from overseas
• Main Concern: Anxiety about whether income and the proposed living plan were sufficient to meet support requirements
• Our Support: Organising income and support plans → Drafting explanation letters → Ensuring consistency across all documents

Customer Experience｜I Was Worried About the Strict Screening, but We Reached Approval

This is a testimonial from a customer who used our services to apply for a dependent visa for the spouse of an international student.

	Customer: Vietnamese International Student
	Request: Inviting a spouse to Japan on a dependent visa while studying in Japan

I had heard that the screening would be strict if a student’s income was not stable, so I was very anxious. When I consulted ACROSEED, they carefully explained that even in my current situation, it could still be possible depending on how we present the explanation and prepare the documents.

We organised my income explanation, future living plans, and all the necessary certificates and translations step by step, so my anxiety gradually decreased as we moved forward.

When I heard that the dependent visa for my spouse had been approved, I felt truly relieved. Now I am looking forward to living together in Japan and working hard as a family.
