Statement of Correctness and Understanding
I certify that the information I have supplied on the attached job hunting report is
true and correct. As a condition of seeking a letter of recommendation from TUJ in
obtaining a Designated Activities Visa (job-hunting visa, the “Visa”) from the
Immigration Bureau of Japan (“IBJ”) including, if desired, assistance from TUJ in
obtaining a work permit from IBJ, I acknowledge and agree to the following terms:
 I shall absolutely abide by all visa rules and regulations established by TUJ,
the IBJ, and the Japanese government.
 If I obtain a work permit from the IBJ, I will follow the work permit
regulations as described in the Immigration Control Act.
 I thoroughly understand the terms of the Visa and, if the Visa is granted,
agree to actively seek full-time employment during the 180-day term of the
Visa. To report my progress and plans, I agree to schedule and attend an
appointment with the TUJ Career Development Office between
_________________________________. (Note: This section to be filled out
by the Career Development Office).
 I understand that failure to do the above may result in TUJ reporting me to
the IBJ and also not supporting an application for an extension of the Visa.

Monthly Job Hunting Report
When issuing an official letter to the Japanese Immigration Bureau, TUJ needs to be able to justify our
recommendation by showing that the recent graduate has been actively job-hunting before graduation,
but has failed to find a suitable full-time job. Therefore, we require that you report and provide
evidence of a minimum of 3 different job hunting activities you did each month beginning three months
prior to graduating. Be sure to report all steps of the screening process you participated in and the result
of the application (i.e., accepted, rejected, or pending). Feel free to submit additional organizations on a
separate sheet. Please attach evidence of your job-hunting activities to this application when submitting
to the Career Development Office.
