My name is Martins, I'm 21 and I'm from Brazil (not a japanese descendent). I didn't have the chance to go to college because of financial problems but I always studied english very hard. I'm currently studying japanese and have plans to live in Japan in about 2-3 years. What are my options ?
Thanks for the help.

Hi Martins
The options are generally:
-Visa by family (marrying someone, getting dependant from parents, grandparents, etc)
-Work Visa. In this case, a company must want to hire you
-Student visa: This is the most common. You can either pay for a Japanese school or try for a scholarship in a university.
-Short term visa: it is destined to tourists and has validity of up to three years, with the right to multiple entries and maximum stay period of 90 days.
