First off, the woman I love is currently in Japan and I am teaching in China now. I know that most big schools will provide accommodation if I teach at them, but would I only be limited to teaching at smaller schools(that don't provide accommodation) because I don't have a college degree? If I marry her I will have the spouse visa...but would a big school hire me without a degree? I will note down that I have teaching experience in China. I figure they would because they would trust that I would be staying in Japan long-term due to the Japanese wife and all. The reason I ask is because I want to marry her soon before my window of opportunity is gone and I was wondering if I would most likely only be able to work at small schools and have to rent a place with her or if my chance are good at getting accommodation? If I can get accommodation...could my wife live there with me? Yes the only reason I ask that is because she currently still lives with her parents and I would be able to marry her a lot sooner if I didn't need to save up a bunch of money to rent an apartment and could just let her stay with me at an accommodation, but I had a feeling that the schools probably wouldn't allow that. I will probably have to continue working in China for a while still to save up the money needed to rent out a cheap apartment with her. By the way, how much would a cheap apartment cost monthly on average and do you have to pay for like 3 - 4 months each time like here in Beijing? Every apartment I have lives in here in Beijing forces you to pay 3 months + deposit for new tenants. I don't blame them because I have seen some people trash apartments and then just disappear. Anyway, does Japan do this too? Are apartments easy to find cheap apartments in the Kansai area? Wow my typing is bad today...anyway I would appreciate the help if anyone knows much about this and is currently renting in Japan(preferably in Kansai).

If you don't marry her, you need a four year degree and a job offer before you get there to qualify for a work visa. Try the web site below. Contact some of the employers & explain your situation to them.

Why do you need accommodation if you marry her? Usually, married couples live together. She does not have an apartment or something? Usually, accommodation provided by an English school is for singles. Not for couples. Whether you can find a job at a big company, it's up to you. If you have a spouse visa, you can legally have any job in Japan.
