RetireJapan

Have changed jobs/address with SBI multiple times. Order physical form via web form, post back with photocopies of ID. Someone else posted that they had issues with SBI, but I've not had any personally. They only have the ex-JP version of eMaxis Slim All Country, though. You can go for the SBI versi...

You won't get the max ¥2M Employment Income Deduction anymore, but on the plus side you'll be able to deduct "necessary expenses". If you quit before the end of May they'll probably deduct the rest of your residence tax until then from your final salary. If you mean: have I registered as a...

Dibs on Rakuten cutting the point rate, or at least some kind of cut, by October

So what I need to do is wait for the cash order to be placed automatically in early April (BUT BEFORE 10 April, the CC setting deadline), then cancel the cash setting to free up 50k of predicted payments from May, which will then (hopefully) let me up the CC setting from 50k to 100k effective May o...

If I've got this right, for dividends there is no choice, and these must be combined. This is probably TMI for the OP but they are "separately taxed at source", however you can put them on your tax return which, which allows you to choose the method of taxation and maybe claim some deduct...
