I really hope not. If my wife gets deported, I'd rather be able to get a permanent residency in Japan with her and the kids but my Japanese is... わるい、to say the least.

Not for lack of trying, I'm pretty sure that part of the brain just sucks.

Rules are different if you're maried to a citizen in a lot of countries compared to just immigrating alone
