As requested, I am making this post to document my attempt to get the Visa for the special case of being the spouse of a Japanese citizen.
My purpose is so that someone going through the process can reference this and hopefully it will be useful.
Probably some of the folks on this site would be interested in that topic.
The original discussion started as to whether I would need a lawyer to help with the process. The overwhelming recommendation was that a lawyer would not be necessary in the simple case of being married to a Japanese citizen. ((*This assumes there are no complications like legal problems, criminal history, refugee status, and those sorts of things. Anything out of the ordinary may require special assistance)).
David has given a lot of background and reference info in that original post, which is referenced here: Anyone know a good immigration/visa lawyer or service in Okinawa?.
