Hey guys, I need your help understanding my situation.
I am currently on a student visa and I am studying in a university in Japan. Since I have a lot of spare time I have decided to apply for jobs in the food industry, mostly. After an interview, I was granted a job in a company and I was told that training will start in about a week time and I agreed.
The day after I went to the immigration office and applied to change my visa in order to be allowed to work and I was told by the clerk that until I don't receive my permission I cannot do any work and get paid for it.
So my question comes to the training situation: can I still go to training or since a don't have a work permit yet, I am not allowed?
I tried to look anywhere but couldn't find a solution!
