devildog683 Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Well, thanks to Uncle Sam giving me orders for a 3 year accompanied tour (dependants authorized to reside with me in government housing), my wife (Thai) can now join me in Japan, alot sooner then she would have if she got her US visa. So now she can come here and get her US K3 visa here, and we will be together alot sooner. 11 more nights ....................... FYI for those who may be in my situation, if you are working in Japan under SOFA status, any dependants who have an ID card can travel to japan without a visa, its even on their web page http://embjp-th.org/en/counsul/faq2.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
