Permanent residency after returning home

Please let me know if you know of any.

I am currently considering returning to Japan. I know that I can return to Japan and still receive Social Security in Japan after retiring from the US, but what will happen to my permanent residency?

1 . Can I still receive Social Security in Japan even if I give up my permanent residence?
2 . If I want to keep my Permanent Resident status, do I have to return ? to the US once a year?
3 . If I stay in Japan without doing anything, will I automatically lose my permanent resident status?
4 . I have heard that the permanent resident status remains the same unless I voluntarily renounce it, but
if I eventually come back here with the permanent resident status after 5 or 10 years ( if I am still alive and well ) can I come back
with that permanent resident status? Can I come back with that permanent residency 。。。。

I am considering returning to Japan to care for my parents, but after they pass away, if I am still healthy, I would like to come back to the US. I would like to receive the pension in Japan, but I am wondering what will happen to my permanent residence after that... I have so many questions. If anyone knows anything about this, I would appreciate it if you could tell me.

↑ Verbally prove that you have lost your passport.

I lost my passport verbally in front of a staff member.
That's a big deal.
It's easy if you can get a staff member who will respond with, "We'll take care of reissuing your passport right away.

How do people with dual citizenship renew their passports after obtaining U.S. citizenship?
If they renew in Japan, they don't have a US entry stamp, do they?
If I renew my passport on my first return to Japan after citizenship, will I still have an entry stamp?
Will I be required to present my green card in Japan in that case?

Dual citizenship after obtaining U.S. citizenship is a violation of the Nationality Law.

In Japan, if an adult man or woman changes his or her nationality of his or her own volition,

his or her Japanese nationality is cancelled when he or she acquires foreign nationality.

Because he/she has not applied to the government office for cancellation of nationality,

he/she mistakenly believes that he/she has dual nationality.

If you are an American born in the U.S., you may have no problem, but

if you are a former Japanese citizen who became an American citizen

when you go to the consulate to apply for a Japanese visa

you have to renounce the cancellation of Japanese nationality. If you are told that you need to renounce your Japanese nationality, we can't give you a visa. What will you do if you are told

that you have to renounce your Japanese nationality?

The application form for a Japanese passport has a check box for citizenship of another country, so once you obtain U.S. citizenship, you cannot renew your Japanese passport. 

Like Americans, you can stay in Japan for 3 months without a visa, but if you want to stay longer than that, you need a foreign resident permit. 3 months is required, so you should apply first before returning to Japan. 

It is unpleasant to be treated as a foreigner in Japan, but if you keep lying and hiding, you may not be able to become Japanese again when you really want to. Because you will become a criminal.

The only time you are treated as a foreigner in Japan is when you are asked to show your ID.

You will only be seen as a Japanese when walking around town.

After that,

why do you ask me that ? of course I will obey you.
Besides, if you took citizenship, you automatically lost your Japanese citizenship.

Did you take citizenship without knowing that?

What do you know by asking at the consulate ?

Consulate staff ・ We cannot give you a visa unless you have completed the renunciation of cancellation of Japanese nationality.

People going to Japan ・ I see. Then I will consider it and come back.

You need time to think about it, not to decide something important on the spot.

If you have citizenship, you are no longer a Japanese citizen.
If you want to return to Japan legally, just do as the officials say.

So if a Japanese who became an American citizen
cannot be issued a visa unless he/she goes through the process of renouncing the cancellation of Japanese citizenship.
I'd like to know what people who have become US citizens and are going to Japan think about this.

Let me answer your question about Tutsan.
I also called the consulate and was told to remove my family registration before applying for a visa.
Then I thought about it and realized that removing one's family register is the same as renouncing one's nationality.
In other words, people born and raised in Japan don't have a piece of paper to prove their Japanese nationality.
The only proof that you are Japanese is your family register.
The family register department at the government office has no way of knowing that I became an American citizen unless I notify them, and I haven't removed my family register, so it must still be there.
I think that if I have a family register, it means I have a nationality.
Of course I know that Japan does not recognize dual citizenship.

So, back to the question, did you remove your family register to get the visa?
I guess it is correct to say that I did not.
I did not remove my family register because I was still attached to Japan, and I felt that my identity was there.
Also, there was a possibility in my mind that I might return to Japan in the future.
I have heard that the procedure of living in Japan will go more smoothly if I have my family register in order. Anyway, I'll leave my family register as it is for now and hope that Japan will soon accept American travelers without visa like before.

If a Japanese person changes his/her nationality to American and has to obtain a visa
to go to Japan,
the person who changed his/her nationality should think about what to do and come to a conclusion.

Some people cancel their trip, others have to go because of family reasons,
there are various reasons, so they should think about it and come to a conclusion.

But I don't see any posts from people who have cancelled their nationality and got a Japanese visa.
