Hi, would like to check have you got back the results from preliminary inspection yet? As I have submitted mid-November

Preliminary approval came in today - so that's almost exactly 4 months since my application was sent in.

Quick update:
Using the JTTP card for the 1st time in Narita Feb 2025.
Took about 2 mins, plus 5 mins wait for the guy in front.
Very happy.

Tax refund also successful.
Some shops do actually know about this ha ha! Others not so much but after I pointed out the "temporary visitor" thing printed on the back of the card, got the refund no problem.
Note: only bought stuff in Tokyo and Kyoto. I suspect more regional/rural areas might be problematic...
