Punta ka sa SHIYAKUSHO ng YOKOHAMA then dun ka mag tanong. Health insurance diba? Hindi ba japanese ang husband mo? kasi kung japanese sya i think meron sya (kung shain sya or individually nya binabayaran). Noon kasi individually lang ako nagbabayad. Wait ka rin sa mga ka TF`s na may experience na katulad mo.

I think it would be best if your hubby asks assistance from his company. Usually companies and their employees share the insurance fees. Employees enrol under the Social Insurance Agency (link (http://www.sia.go.jp/e/ehi.html)). The other insurance from the City Hall ("shiyakusho") called "National Health Insurance" is for students, unemployed, self-employed, retired persons etc. and not for company employees.

Please refer to my post #6 (http://www.timog.com/forum/showpost.php?p=21594 3&postcount=6) in your other thread (http://www.timog.com/forum/showthread.php?t=892 2) for more details. :)

Hi tama si Dax,kung employee ang husband mo I think may insurance sya sa company nya at hindi ka pwedeng mag apply dun sa National Health Insurance pero ask mo si hubby mo na i apply ka.Individual ay okey,kasi ganon ang sa akin.My husband is not japanese.
