It's funny. I first answered "3" because that would be the correct answer if I were in my home country. Then I recalled that I've been living in Japan for 8 years, so I'm a sort of immigrant and should answer "0". The thing is, Japan is far from being an immigrant country like US, Canada or Brazil. For instance, you don't automatically get permanent residence even if you're married to a Japanese citizen. Even ethnic Koreans who were born here, have Japanese blood and speak only Japanese have a different status. There's no such thing as anti-discrimination laws, etc.
