So, in the first half of this year, I did 副業 freelance work for a company.
They then offered me a full-time position, which I accepted.
While they were my secondary employer, the payment I received totaled over 200,000+, so I'd normally expect to submit a 確定申告 next tax season.
However, is it still necessary if that secondary employer is now my primary employer?
I asked HR about this, and they gave me a non-answer.
Perhaps I need to ask a better question? Perhaps, I should just submit a 確定申告 to be safe?
I don't recall the 年末調整 form including any fields that would be applicable to my situation, either.
Thanks in advance for any insight!
Do I still have to submit a 確定申告 if I was hired by the company I freelanced for?

Whilst you were working for them in a contract position, where they withholding income tax?
If not, then you will definitely need to submit a Kakutei Shinkoku.
If they were, will they provide you a Certificate of Withholding - Gensen Choshuhyo for the period, and will they include that tax paid in the Year-End True-Up - Nenmatsu Chosei ?
If not, then you will definitely need to submit a Kakutei Shinkoku.
Are you claiming expenses as a contractor for the first half of the year?
If so, then you will definitely need to submit a Kakutei Shinkoku.
Are you claiming other deductions such as medical expenses or Furusato Nozei, etc.?
If so, then you will definitely need to submit a Kakutei Shinkoku.
Conclusion: For this year you probably will need to submit a Kakutei Shinkoku.
If not, then you will definitely need to submit a Kakutei Shinkoku.
