Hello. My name is Ains and I have amassed a debt of over 500 000yen in health insurance during my time in Japan. Before, everyone judges me and says I am a deadbeat or something like that, please let me assure you that I am a good person and there is reason for this. When I came here it was to get away from a family job that was quite simply driving me mad. My family has a building company and each member of my family is covered by my families HI plan in our home country. No matter where we are. For this reason, I paid my health insurance for my first year in Japan and was not told anything about the huge increase that would occur which I simply cannot afford.
I have started paying off the debt bit by bit..... in order to pay it off it would take years upon years.
Due to family reasons at home, I sadly feel my time in Japan is up. With this outstanding debt, I am worried about how this will affect my last months in Japan and the last few weeks when I have to sort things out at the city office.
In an already tough time, I would appreciate any advice on what lies ahead.
I know that I have made mistakes, as we all do as humans. However, I wish to know the consequences of this as nobody i know seems willing or able to help.
