Well, trip_hop from gaijinpot seems pretty sure of himself, I have followed up with another question for anyone there. Once I get a definitive on that question, I think it will advance my progress.

The link for that thread, if anyone is interested is: http://www.gaijinpot.com/bb/showthread.php?t=10487


(I am too new to posting on ESL boards to know of any competition, ill-will or any other feelings between boards. If such feelings exist, I am not partaking in them and am only offering links as information for anyone who may need it. I think I read something on eslcafe about gaijinpot being the 4th gate of hell or some sort but I haven't exprienced it, so...)

I've now got some answers from eslcafe(http://www.eslcafe.com/forums/job/vi...c.php?t=23010). It seems it is indeed handed out quite easily. Good to hear. Well off to bed and here's to hoping I get confirmation on a degree not being needed for part-time ESL work when I wake up

Good night folks.

The purpose of a bulletin board is to let people freely exchange useful information, at least in my opinion. no sense in not posting a link if useful information is out there but on a different board. But thanks for the concern, i do believe it is a problem on some boards.

Glad you were able to find the info you needed

Me too. trip_hop from gaijinpot basically put it as, you need a degree for the instructor visa, it's up to the employer what qualifications he requires of his staff. I'm still going to work on getting confirmation of that with a contact I have in Japan but so far so good. I hope it continues this way

The eslcafe thread has confirmed pretty much the order of things.

Come to Japan on a dependant visa. Look for work. Get permission form from immigration, go back to prospective employer, have him fill it out, give it back to immigration, get to working. Of course, it's in more detail over there if anyone wants a look at it. I'll just try and confirm how much work is part-time work in case this can help any other dependants in the future.
