Hi,
I have had a lot of trouble finding a job that will sponsor me for a work visa. I want to sponsor myself, and have heard that you can do this.
From what I understand, you need some job offers totaling 200,000 yen a month or more, and you need written statements of these offers.
Does anyone have any information?
I have my own personal reasons for wanting to go this route.

I have a couple of questions...Where is the Ministry of Justice, and is there one located in Osaka?
2. Are there any jobs that sponsor working visas that will not require one to move into their apartment. I have housing already set up, and a lot of employers seem to have an issue with this.
Any advice appreciated...

1. The Justice/immigration office is located in Temmabashi, just a 5 minute walk south of the Temmabashi subway.

2. No idea but you could try the Kansai Flea Market at http://www.kfm.to
