		<description>My two daughters are both filipino-japanese and are already 22 and 23 yrs. old.  I would like to know how to go about the &quot;nichi&quot; since they were acknowledge only in their filipino birth certificates when they were months old.  But where not registered in koseki tohon since we were not married.  What kind of help or opportunities do they still have in going after their father after 22 yrs.  Both daughters now are college graduates; one is an RN and the other with degree in hotel and restaurant management.  They would like to see if they could have a chance to go to japan and work since it is difficult to gain hospital experience in Manila.  My other daughter would like to go to culinary arts so she can get a better job.  So what happens to all these filipino-japanese whose only fault is being 20 and above year old.  Citizenship should be about blood not place of birth; I really feel bad for my two daughters.  Can you please advice me on what to do?</description>

		<description>Rica,

As an adult, you will have to go through normal procedures for a Filipino to receive a tourist visa to visit Japan. That&#039;s is the first step for attempting to meet your father. His assurance of a place to stay and financial assistance should it be necessary while in Japan, especially as your biological father, will be very helpful at the Japanese embassy.

There are multiple websites which provide more in depth and up to date information for Filipinos in your similar situation.

I am in no way an expert in this area, but it would seem very difficult even though your father is Japanese to receive citizenship. His recognition of you as his child would be a first positive step, but even then, it is no guarantee of obtaining citizenship at your current age and having grown up outside of Japan. Is there any chance that he would like to visit you first? His help would be essential (but maybe not forthcoming, I have to warn you.)

Have a look around at other websites which may provide you with better insight into your particular situation. Be positive while understanding it is a tough road. Best wishes!</description>
