How too get paid in japan?

A little back story i’m in japan on a working holiday visa and i started a new job that requires a Japanese bank account too get paid. No problem right? But japan post bank requires at least 3 months left on a visa too open a bank account (found out the hard way) my visa runs out in 2 months… I can extend my visa for another 6 month but the kicker is that it takes 2-4weeks processing time and my flight back home is in 3 weeks (may 16th)

My boss refuses too pay in any other way (cash, international bank transfer etc..) it has too be through a Japanese bank account registered in my name. He says that it for tax reasons?

My question are

1. Are there any banks that don’t require 3months left on a visa/ any way other way too get paid in japan?

2. If my visa doesn’t come in time (it probably won’t) do i have any legal action too make him pay me in another way before i leave.

Thanks in advance for any input cheers!
