Tips for being unemployed in Japan with a family

I’ve decided to leave my job at an eikaiwa after over a decade and look for other work. I’m living in Tokyo with a wife and elementary school child. For anyone else who has been in this situation, any advice or things I should know based on your experiences?
(For example, I remember reading on another thread a few months ago about permanent resident visas, that one poster was hounded by immigration for having not done some kind of paperwork while being unemployed for two weeks.)

Extra info: I’m still working now and am on a spousal visa.

I appreciate all of the comments and advice. I hope it can be a thread (not only specific to my situation) that can help anyone in general considering quitting, though.
