Manage residence and permit deadlines and visa requirements

We added Filings and deadlines to the menu for small businesses and sole proprietors, so you can manage deadlines such as residence permit expiry, office leases, and licenses and permits in one place. A new Status of residence tab shows each employee's requirements and the documents to submit.

What's new#

• In Residence and permit deadlines, register deadlines for office leases, company registrations, licenses and permits, insurance and more, and get notified as they approach. Residence permit expiry dates from employee information are imported automatically.
• Use Renewal document check to see the documents needed to renew a Business Manager visa.
• On the Status of residence (visa) tab, see for each employee the requirements for their status (those that can be determined from data such as Accounting and attendance are checked automatically), a checklist of documents to submit, a schedule including the date you can apply, and the progress of the application. The requirements are based on materials published by the Immigration Services Agency of Japan.
• In Business plan vs. actuals, compare your business plan for each fiscal period with actuals totaled from the income statement in Accounting.
• The home screen now shows a Deadlines and filings card that summarizes deadlines within the next 90 days.
• We added Business Manager, Highly Skilled Professional, Intra-company Transferee, Skilled Labor, Designated Activities, Special Permanent Resident, and Spouse or Child of Permanent Resident to the status of residence options in employee information.

Note: The status of residence requirements check is meant for employees and the company to review on their own before applying. It does not prepare application documents or judge whether an application will be approved.
