UPDATE: 10th Year in Japan, received a call from the legal bureau to schedule a home visit

Application submitted: April 2026(after the new rule kicked in)

Residency at time of application: 9 years 6 months

Currently waiting for interview

Received a call today from the legal bureau to schedule a home visit end of July. What should I expect during the visit? Any do's and dont's?

Tbh I am just relieved that they didn't call me to suggest withdrawing the application nor scheduling the final interview before September when I will finish my 10 years residency.

EDIT: applied at Kanagawa(Yokohama/Kawasaki area)
