Japan Tightens Guidelines for Granting Permanent Residency, To Take Effect in April 2027

In its latest move on reforming immigration, Japan has officially revised its guidelines for granting permanent residency to foreign nationals and these will take effect in April 2027, according to a news report by Kyodo News. Guidelines include Japanese language-proficiency and having an above-average income compared with Japanese households.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Kyodo News report. Some parts in boldface…

Japan’s immigration agency on Thursday revised its guidelines for granting permanent residency to foreign nationals, requiring applicants to have an income above the average for Japanese households and demonstrating a certain level of projected pension benefits.

The revised guidelines, which are set to take effect in April 2027, also require applicants to demonstrate Japanese-language proficiency at the level of an “independent user.”

The income requirement will be applied retroactively to applications made from April 2026 onward, as the immigration authorities aim to ensure that foreign applicants are financially independent. The average annual income per household was around 5.75 million yen ($36,500) in 2024.

The government of Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has been seeking to tighten regulations on the acceptance of foreign nationals. Fees for residence status applications were also hiked sharply on Thursday.

Applicants will also be required to have projected pension benefits equivalent to those payable after 30 years of enrollment in the employees’ pension program at their income level at the time they apply.

In principle, applicants must have lived in Japan for more than 10 years to qualify for permanent residency.

Previously, spouses of Japanese nationals or permanent residents could obtain permanent residency if they had been married for at least three years and had resided in Japan for at least one year.

However, the revised guidelines raise those thresholds to five years of marriage and three years of residence.

The Immigration Services Agency received around 5,000 public comments since it unveiled the draft guidelines in August.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Are you convinced that the Japanese government is executing the right moves with the revised guidelines? Do you think this latest immigration reform by Japan could inspire other nations to follow suit? What do you think could be the reasons why foreigners want to live permanently in Japan without following their rules, without paying their bills and without learning the Japanese language?

Higher Residency Fees for Foreign Nationals in Japan in Effect

What Japan promised as a part of immigration reform has finally been executed yesterday. The fees for foreign nationals seeking a change or a renewal of their residency status in Japan has been hiked dramatically to 200,000 Yen (US$1,280), according to a news report by Kyodo News. In relation with this development, there were long lines of foreign nationals who applied at regional immigration service centers hoping to beat the scheduled hike of residency fees.

To learn about the events that preceded the new residency fees, click here, here and here.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Kyodo News report. Some parts in boldface…

Japan on Thursday hiked fees for foreign nationals seeking to change or renew their residency status, with the cost of permanent residency jumping twentyfold to 200,000 yen ($1,280).

The increase triggered a last-minute rush to apply under the old rates earlier this week, with long lines forming at immigration offices and heavy traffic making it difficult for some people to use the government’s online application system.

At the Osaka Regional Immigration Services Bureau on Tuesday, about 350 people were waiting when the office opened at 9 a.m., with the line stretching outside the building.

Before the hikes, the fees for non-permanent residency applications were 6,000 yen to change residency status or extending the period of stay. The fee for permanent residency was 10,000 yen.

From Thursday, the fee varies according to the period of stay granted, starting at 10,000 yen for three months or less and rising to 75,000 yen for five years or more.

The change comes following a revision to Japan’s immigration and refugee law enacted in May, with the government citing rising costs for visa screening.

For some foreign residents trying to continue working and living in Japan, including asylum seekers who fled hardship at home, the higher fees are adding to their financial burden.

A man in his 30s from East Africa, who came to Japan in 2023, said he is seeking refugee status for political reasons. He is currently unemployed after his seasonal job ended, adding that finding work has been difficult as many Japanese companies are reluctant to hire asylum seekers.

He currently holds a six-month “designated activities” residency status, meaning his renewal fee will rise to 18,000 yen under the new system.

“I like Japan,” he said, adding that he intends to pay the fees required to remain in the country. But he said policymakers should listen more closely to people directly affected by immigration rules.

An Indonesian man, 35, who went to the Osaka immigration office to apply for permanent residency before the increase took effect, said the twentyfold rise had come as a shock.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Now that higher residency fees are already in effect, do you anticipate a huge back backlash by foreign residents and their respective national governments against Japan? Do you think the woke mob and open borders zealots around the world will criticize Japan and pressure them to reverse all the immigration reforms they executed? Do you think the hiked fees will somehow compel illegal aliens and illegal immigrants to surrender to the local authorities and leave Japan?

Japan to Boost Cooperation to Crackdown Against Illegal Foreign Workers

Japan will intensify its crackdown against illegal foreign workers by boosting cooperation with the other divisions of the government very soon, according to a news report by Jiji Press. While the intention to solve the problems connected with illegal foreign workers is clear, the government of Japan still has varied obstacles that needs to be cleared in order to launch an effective crackdown.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the entire Jiji Press news report. Some parts in boldface…

Japan’s Immigration Services Agency will boost cooperation with other government divisions to crack down on illegal foreign workers.

Starting as early as October, agency officials will join land ministry inspections of demolition and construction sites.

The land ministry conducts regular patrols of demolition and construction sites. However, its construction-related officials do not have the authority to verify the identities of foreign nationals, even when they are suspected of working illegally.

To address this issue, the Immigration Services Agency will send immigration control officers to participate in these patrols, as these officers have the authority to ask foreign residents to show their residence cards, which they are required to carry under the immigration control and refugee recognition law.

The agency also plans to collaborate with the Environment Ministry, which oversees outdoor storage yards for waste plastics and scrap metal.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? If you have been living in Japan, did you notice any illegal acts committed by foreign residents over the past three months? Are you aware of the illegal mosque built in Japan by Pakistani nationals who defied the local authorities? Why do you think foreigners from Third World nations tend to behave negatively while living in Japan? Do you think Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae and her government can achieve comprehensive immigration reform within the next few years?

Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Empties Mexico Border Shelters

Ever since US President Donald Trump returned to office, the immigration crackdown and tightening implemented by the current administration not only brought illegal crossings down and deported a lot of illegal immigrants/aliens but also made the migrant shelters along Mexico’s northern border getting emptied, according to a news report by Newsmax.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Newsmax report. Some parts in boldface…

Migrant shelters along Mexico’s northern border are emptying as fewer migrants head to the United States following President Donald Trump’s tighter immigration enforcement and expanded deportation efforts.

For Salome Villena, an Ecuadorean migrant who once planned to cross into the U.S. with her husband and two children, aged 4 and 6, the shifting landscape of U.S. immigration policy helped change those plans. Instead, the family has decided to remain in Ciudad Juarez, where they are among the few people still staying at a local shelter.

“Our intention was to cross into the United States, but because of what Trump did, we couldn’t,” Villena said, referring to changes in U.S. immigration and asylum policies.

The family also considered paying a smuggler to take them across the border, but abandoned the idea after they said the man began stealing their money.

After returning to office, Trump ended one of the main pathways migrants had used to seek entry to the U.S., ending the CBP One app that allowed asylum seekers to schedule appointments at ports of entry. The change left thousands of migrants in border cities such as Ciudad Juarez and prompted Mexican authorities to prepare for a surge in deportees by opening emergency shelters.

Many of those facilities, however, remained largely empty as migrant arrivals fell and deportations were often carried out by air to southern Mexico or other countries.

The drop in migrant flows has been felt across Ciudad Juarez’s shelter network. Juan Fierro, who heads the city’s Good Samaritan shelter, said Trump’s policies had sharply reduced the number of new arrivals.

“It’s becoming increasingly complicated and difficult for people to reach Mexico’s northern border and cross into the United States,” he said.

The shift has altered the makeup of the city’s migrant population, said Dirvan Garcia of the state population council, Coespo.

“We are living something completely different,” Garcia said. “There are a large number of people who initially intended to cross the border but are now putting down roots in the city.“

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Are you pleased with the ongoing immigration crackdown in America under the Trump administration? Are there still a lot of illegal immigrants/aliens still living in your local community? Do you think the number of foreigners who planned to illegally enter the United States but ended up staying in Mexico will settle in Mexican towns/cities permanently?

#ICE’s purchases for big detention centers are marked by secrecy, frustrating towns

By HEATHER HOLLINGSWORTH and MORGAN LEE
Updated 11:54 AM EST, February 21, 2026

Excerpt: SOCORRO, Texas (AP) — "In a Texas town at the edge of the #Rio rande and a tall metal border wall, rumors swirled that federal immigration officials wanted to purchase three hulking warehouses to transform into a detention center.

"As local officials scrambled to find out what was happening, a deed was filed showing the Department of Homeland Security had already inked a $122.8 million deal for the 826,000-square-foot (76,738-square-meter) warehouses in Socorro, a bedroom community of 40,000 people outside #ElPaso.

" 'Nobody from the federal government bothered to pick up the phone or even send us any type of correspondence letting us know what’s about to take place,' said Rudy Cruz Jr., the mayor of the predominantly #Hispanic town of low-slung ranch homes and trailer parks, where orchards and irrigation ditches share the landscape with strip malls, truck stops, recycling plants and distribution warehouses.

"Socorro is among at least 20 communities with large warehouses across the U.S. that have become stealth targets for Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s $45-billion expansion of detention centers.

"As public support for the agency and President Donald #Trump’s #ImmigrationCrackdown sags, communities are objecting to mass detentions and raising concerns that the facilities could strain water supplies and other services while reducing local tax revenue. In many cases, mayors, county commissioners, governors and members of Congress learned about ICE’s ambitions only after the agency bought or leased space for detainees, leading to shock and frustration even in areas that have backed Trump.

" 'I just feel,' said Cruz, whose wife was born in Mexico, 'that they do these things in silence so that they don’t get opposition.' "

#Trump facing growing #CulturalRevolt against #ImmigrationCrackdown

By STEVE PEOPLES
Updated 10:09 PM EST, January 28, 2026

NEW YORK (AP) — "No longer confined to the partisans and #activists, the fierce backlash against Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown has begun to break out across American culture, spanning the worlds of business, sports and entertainment.

"#BruceSpringsteen released a new song Wednesday that slammed 'Trump’s federal #thugs.' OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman told employees that 'what’s happening with ICE is going too far,' referring to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And lifestyle icon #MarthaStewart lamented that 'we can be attacked and even killed.'

" 'Things must and have to change quickly and peacefully,' Stewart wrote to her 2.9 million Instagram followers this week.

"A little more than one year into his second term, Trump is facing a broad cultural revolt that threatens to undermine his signature domestic priority, the Republican Party’s grip on power and his own political strength ahead of the midterm elections."

"A U.S. citizen on her way to a medical appointment in Minneapolis was dragged out of her car and detained by immigration officers, according to a statement released by the woman on Thursday, after a video of her arrest drew millions of views on social media.

"Aliya Rahman said she was brought to a detention center where she was denied medical care and lost consciousness. The Department of Homeland Security said she was an agitator who was obstructing #ICE agents conducting arrests in the area.

"That video is the latest in a deluge of online content that documents an intensifying #immigrationCrackdown across the midwestern city, as thousands of federal agents execute arrests amid protests in what local officials have likened to a 'federal invasion.' "

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — "Minnesota and its two largest cities sued the Trump administration Monday to try to stop an immigration enforcement surge that led to the fatal shooting of a Minneapolis woman by a federal officer and evoked outrage and protests across the country.

"The state, joined by #Minneapolis and #StPaul, said the Department of Homeland Security is violating the First Amendment and other constitutional protections. The lawsuit seeks a temporary restraining order to halt the enforcement action or limit the operation.

" 'This is, in essence, a federal invasion of the Twin Cities in Minnesota, and it must stop,' state Attorney General #KeithEllison said at a news conference. 'These poorly trained, aggressive and armed agents of the federal state have terrorized Minnesota with widespread unlawful conduct.' "

Breaking News! Federal Agent Shoots Woman Amid #Minneapolis Crackdown
The person was killed, federal authorities said. Gov. Tim Walz asked for calm as protesters gathered.

"A federal immigration officer shot and killed a person in Minneapolis on Wednesday during an enforcement operation, the Department of Homeland Security said.

"The shooting came as the Trump administration intensified a promised crackdown on illegal immigration in Minnesota.

"The office of Senator Tina Smith, Democrat of Minnesota, described the person who was shot as the wife of a prominent #activist, and Representative Ilhan Omar, a Democrat whose congressional district includes the shooting scene, described the person as a '#LegalObserver.'

"Several of the state’s top Democrats called on federal immigration agents to leave the city, accusing them of sowing chaos. Federal officials have defended the crackdown in Minneapolis as a necessary response to illegal immigration and widespread fraud in state social service systems.

"Gov. #TimWalz of #Minnesota said in a statement that he had been informed of the shooting involving U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which took place in a residential neighborhood in South Minneapolis. He asked people to remain calm.

"Homeland Security officials said the shooting happened as agents were conducting “targeted operations” and were confronted by protesters.

"Tricia McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for #DHS, said in a statement that a woman had 'weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them.' [BULLSHIT!!!]

"The federal government’s description of the encounter could not immediately be verified independently."

#ImmigrationCrackdown inspires uniquely #Chicago pushback that’s now a model for other cities

By SOPHIA TAREEN and CHRISTINE FERNANDO, November 16, 2025

CHICAGO (AP) — "Baltazar Enriquez starts most mornings with street patrols, leaving his home in Chicago’s #LittleVillage on foot or by car to find immigration agents that have repeatedly targeted his largely Mexican neighborhood.

"Wearing an orange whistle around his neck, the activist broadcasts his plans on Facebook.

" 'We don’t know if they’re going to come back. All we know is we’ve got to get ready,' he tells thousands of followers. 'Give us any tips if you see any suspicious cars.'

"Moments later, his phone buzzes.

"As an unprecedented immigration crackdown enters a third month, a growing number of Chicago residents are fighting back against what they deem a racist and aggressive overreach of the federal government. The Democratic stronghold’s response has tapped established activists and everyday residents from wealthy suburbs to working class neighborhoods.

"They say their efforts — #CommunityPatrols, #RapidResponders, #SchoolEscorts, vendor buyouts, #HonkingHorns and #BlowingWhistles — are a uniquely Chicago response that other cities President Donald #Trump has targeted for federal intervention want to model.

" 'The strategy here is to make us afraid. The response from Chicago is a bunch of obscenities and ‘no,’ said Anna Zolkowski Sobor, whose North Side neighborhood saw agents throw #TearGas and tackle an elderly man. 'We are all Chicagoans who deserve to be here. Leave us alone.' "

New Trump memo ends bond releases for some, could keep migrants detained for years

Story by Angeline McCall, July 15, 2025

"A new Trump administration memo calls to eliminate bond releases for immigrants who crossed the border without authorization, potentially keeping them in Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention for years while their cases progress through the immigration system, according to advocates who work with detained immigrants.

"The policy change means immigrants who entered the country without authorization will no longer be eligible for bond releases and must remain in custody until their cases are resolved — a process that can take years.

" 'We found out this morning that it was happening,' said Andrea Loya, Executive Director of Casa de Paz, an organization that assists people released from ICE custody.

"The memo represents a significant shift from previous practices where many immigrants could be released on bond while awaiting their immigration hearings. Loya said her organization currently sees people released after stays ranging from just a few weeks to over a year, depending on their case complexity, access to legal representation and financial resources.

"Under the new policy, those released on bond will no longer be able to 'go back home' to their families and 'establish some sort of normalcy again and keep fighting for their cases,' Loya said.

"The extended detention periods could stretch for years, according to Loya, who noted that 'some of these people will fight for years because they will not be going back home' due to safety concerns in their countries of origin.

" 'What I don't think a lot of people understand is that some of these people, going back to their home countries is a literal death sentence,' she said.

"Loya characterized the policy as a strategy to pressure immigrants to abandon their legal cases.

" 'So this is definitely a measure to push people to get back and sign a deportation order or push them into just giving up and going back to whatever home country means,' she said.

"The policy change aligns with broader Trump administration immigration enforcement priorities. The One #BigBeautifulBillAct allocates $45 billion to expand #ICEDetention capacity to 100,000 beds, roughly double the current capacity.

"Loya described the detention system as 'monetized' and 'privatized,' suggesting the new policy serves multiple purposes for the administration.

" 'I think it's a push to make people give up in their cases and also, without the understanding that some people can't give up because going back to their home countries is a death sentence,' she said."

#NativeAmerican leaders blast construction of #Florida’s ‘#AlligatorAlcatraz’ on land they call sacred

By KATE PAYNE
Updated 5:57 PM EDT, June 26, 2025

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — "Florida Republican Gov. #RonDeSantis’ administration is racing ahead with construction of a makeshift immigration detention facility at an airstrip in the Everglades over the opposition of Native American leaders who consider the area their sacred #AncestralHomelands.

"A string of portable generators and dump trucks loaded with fill dirt streamed into the site on Thursday, according to #activist Jessica Namath, who witnessed the activity. The state is plowing ahead with building a compound of heavy-duty tents, trailers and other temporary buildings at the Miami Dade County-owned airfield located in the #BigCypressNationalPreserve, about 45 miles (72 kilometers) west of downtown Miami.

"A spokesperson for the Florida Division of Emergency Management, which is helping lead the project, did not respond to requests for comment.

"State officials have characterized the site as an ideal place to hold #migrants saying there’s 'not much' there other than pythons and alligators.

"#Indigenous leaders dispute that and are condemning the state’s plans to build what’s been dubbed 'Alligator Alcatraz' on their homelands. #NativeAmericans can trace their roots to the area back thousands of years.

"For generations, the sweeping wetlands of what is now South Florida have been home to Native peoples who today make up the #MiccosukeeTribe of Indians of Florida and the #SeminoleTribe of Florida, as well as the #SeminoleNation of Oklahoma.

" 'Rather than Miccosukee homelands being an uninhabited wasteland for alligators and pythons, as some have suggested, the Big Cypress is the Tribe’s traditional homelands. The landscape has protected the #Miccosukee and Seminole people for generations,' Miccosukee Chairman Talbert Cypress wrote in a statement on social media.

"There are 15 remaining traditional Miccosukee and #Seminole villages in Big Cypress, as well as ceremonial and burial grounds and other gathering sites, Cypress testified before Congress in 2024.

" 'We live here. Our ancestors fought and died here. They are buried here,' he said.
The Big Cypress is part of us, and we are a part of it.'

"Garrett Stuart, who lives about 3 miles (4.8 kilometers) from the site, described the crystal clear waters, open prairies and lush tree islands of Big Cypress as teeming with life.

" 'Hearing the arguments of the frogs in the water, you know? And listen to the grunt of the alligator. You’re hearing the call of that osprey flying by and listening to the crows chatting,' he said. 'It’s all just incredible.'

"Critics have condemned the #detention facility and what they call the state’s apparent reliance on alligators as a security measure as a cruel spectacle, while DeSantis and other state officials have defended it as part of Florida’s muscular efforts to carry out President Donald Trump’s #ImmigrationCrackdown.

#Florida #sheriff warns protesters ahead of nationwide rallies: ‘We will kill you dead’

‘We will be notifying your family where to collect your remains, because we will kill you, graveyard dead,’ the sheriff eerily warned Thursday

by Madeline Sherratt
Friday 13 June 2025

"A Florida sheriff issued a stark message to protesters planning to demonstrate this weekend against increasing ICE arrests nationwide.

"#BrevardCounty Sheriff #WayneIvey warned in a press conference Thursday that if any protesters 'throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun,' they will be killed.

" 'If you block an intersection or a roadway in Brevard County, you are going to jail. If you flee arrest, you’re going to go to jail tired because we are going to run you down and put you in jail,' Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey said.

" 'If you try to mob rule a car in Brevard County, gathering around it, refusing to let the driver leave in our county, you’re most likely going to get run over and dragged across the street.'

"Protests against the Trump administration's ongoing #ImmigrationCrackdown have been popping up across the nation after they first erupted in Los Angeles on Friday.

"They are expected to continue through the weekend, in alignment with the president’s birthday parade."
