    Billboard $ 2,250~OK ! Advertisements for the U.S. "Full support in Japanese".

    I want to advertise in the US market.

    But …

    "Where is the best place to advertise ?"

    "Is it true that the Japanese way does not work ?"

    Are you worried about this ?

    In fact, advertising management in the U.S. is completely different from that in Japan.

    - Ads don't stick because the culture and wording are different

    Are you feeling stuck in attracting customers through SNS and product launches ??

    I have learned a lot.
    I know a certain amount of know-how.
    Still, are you in such a state of "I don't know how to do it, and I can't move at all …" ?

    If you are not getting results with social networking and product launches now, it is dangerous to go forward as it is. It is dangerous.

    That! Your sales will drop!

    What many people tend to do is run to "structuring" or "automation" at a stage where it is not working.

    However, if you try to systematize your business when it is not selling, you will only automate the "flow of not selling".

    That is why what is needed now is not a mechanism but "how to create a business that sells" itself.

    From "no sales" to "sales".

    We will show you how to create a profitable business from scratch in the age of AI.

    Why did
    a person who had been stagnant with monthly sales of 200,000-500,000 yen and anxiety about the future not disappear--

    how did he achieve monthly sales of 1.2 million yen within 1 month of starting his business and over 10 million yen after 1 year?
    He was able to achieve sales of over 10 million yen a month after one year of business.
    I will tell you the reason step by step.

    Visa and Payroll

    Tax Return

    It is well known to many in the Japanese community that the decision to file a Tax Return as a Non-resident or Resident is based on the 3-year rule and other factors. However, I don't think people who plan to stay in Japan for a short period of time are aware that they are not obligated to pay Social Security and Medicare on a daily salary.


    Social and Medicare

    Basically, those working for government agencies, A-Visa, non-resident students , OPT, researchers, etc. F, J, M, Q visa holders are exempt from paying Social and Medicare. H-1B seems to have changed recently to not be exempt.

    The E VISA, which is often handled by Japanese expatriates, is not explained in detail by the IRS, as can be seen from the following quote from the IRS website. Since E VISA is mainly used for long term stay and is one of the effective ways to obtain a Green Card, it is likely that the explanation is omitted from the IRS listing.

    Thus, to summarize, both the Internal Revenue Code and the Social Security Act allow an exemption from Social Security/Medicare taxes to Thus to summarize, both the Internal Revenue Code and the Social Security Act allow an exemption from Social Security/Medicare taxes to alien students, scholars, teachers, researchers, trainees, physicians, au pairs, summer camp workers, and other nonimmigrants who have entered the United States on F-1, J-1, M-1, Q-1, or Q-2 visas and who are still classified as NONRESIDENT ALIENS under the residency rules of the Internal Revenue Code.

    Typically, the H-1B change of status becomes effective on October 1st of each year.


    From the perspective of the U.S.-Japan Social Security Agreement

    , in order to prevent double payments between the U.S. and Japan, the U.S.-Japan Social Security Agreement provides that an employer who has paid premiums and pensions in Japan may extend their H-1B status up to 5 8 years. <1967> If you are paying premiums and pension in Japan and intend to return to Japan within 5 years ) which has been extended to 8 years, you are exempt from US Social Security and Medicare. From this perspective, those who meet these conditions under the E VISA would be eligible for the waiver. However, for stays of more than 2 or 3 years, the regulations require that you apply to the Japanese government for a document proving your intention to return to Japan within 5 years, and submit the same document to the U.S. government. In my opinion, if you are staying more than 4 or 5 years, it is better to pay the taxes than to struggle to save some taxes, because you can benefit from U.S. pension, insurance, and other benefits.


    Refund

    At the time of Tax Retrun, we sometimes see people on OPT bringing in their W-2 with Social and Medicare deducted. Some companies treat E VISA as long term resident and pay social and Medicare from the first year. Most American employers are not even aware of the US-Japan Social Security Agreement or the US-Japan Tax Treaty, and may ask you to reimburse them with a tax return, but we do not recommend it because the process is complicated and difficult. Also, if you request a W-2 correction from the company, it is unlikely that they will accept it, as payroll companies charge a lot of money for corrections that carry over from one year to the next. Your best bet is to check with your employer at the time of hire, and check with your company's HR as soon as you become aware of it. Now.

    Expatriation ・ Freelance Required ! In-depth "Double Taxation Measures" for U.S. Taxpayers

    ---Two Options for U.S. Taxpayers Working Abroad : Two Options to Prevent Double Taxation ---
    When a U.S. citizen, green card holder, or other person with U.S. tax obligations earns income abroad, there are two important programs to prevent "double taxation ( in both the foreign country and the U.S.": the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ( and the Foreign Tax Credit (. There are two important programs to prevent "double taxation )": the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and the Foreign Tax Credit . The choice of which one to choose depends on the amount of income, local tax rates, and family structure.

    1 . Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ( What is the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion ) ?
    This is an exclusion of income earned abroad by U.S. citizens, green card holders, and others who have tax obligations in the United States, This is a system that allows U.S. citizens, green card holders, and other individuals with U.S. tax obligations to exclude up to a certain amount of income from U.S. taxation.
    This system is designed to prevent "double taxation ( in both foreign countries and the U.S. ) on the same income.

    \1) Outline of the System
    This system allows a person who has a tax liability in the U.S. to exclude from U.S. taxation up to a certain amount of income earned by working abroad. It is one of the mechanisms to prevent double taxation.

    (2) Who is eligible
    U.S. citizenship or permanent residence holders ( Green card holders ) and other U.S. taxpayers who meet one of the following criteria :
    1. Bona Fide Residence Test ( True Residence Test ) : Resided in a foreign country from January 1 through December 31
    2. Physical Presence Test ( Physical Residence Test ) : Spent 330 or more days out of 12 consecutive months 330 days or more in a foreign country ( including long term business trips )
    *It is important to have a "Tax Home ( Tax Base )" in a foreign country for the entire year.

    (3) Maximum amount that can be excluded
    • For 2025 : Up to approximately $ 126,500 ( per person ) "Wages ・ wages ・ self-employment income earned abroad" etc. can be excluded from U.S. taxable in the U.S.
    • Married couples filing jointly can exclude up to $ 253,000 if they each meet the requirements.
    • Foreign housing expenses such as rent and utilities can be additionally excluded if they meet the requirements.

    (4) "Foreign-earned income" ( Foreign-earned income ) is ?
    • salary, compensation, or professional fees for work provided by an individual abroad.
    • It does not include income considered as profit sharing, such as shares or dividends.

    (5) Income earned abroad not included
    • Military personnel of the U.S. government or its agencies ・ Civil service pay
    • Pensions ・ Pension benefits
    • Investments ・ Stock income, Dividends ・ Interest

    (6) Notes
    • Once you choose an exclusion, it will continue to apply automatically in that and future years ( Withdrawals require a procedure ) .
    • You will not receive the Foreign Tax Credit ( ) for foreign taxes on excluded income.
    • If you choose to exclude, you will not be able to use the Earned Income Credit ( Earned Income Tax Credit ) or Additional Child Tax Credit ( Additional Child Tax Credit ) or other credits ・.

    2. Foreign Tax Credit ( Foreign Tax Credit )
    Outline of the System
    If an American taxpayer pays income tax in a foreign country, the tax paid in that foreign country is deducted directly from the American income tax to prevent double taxation. The taxpayer is allowed to deduct the tax paid in the foreign country directly from his/her U.S. income tax liability to avoid double taxation.

    (2) Who is eligible
    • US taxpayers who paid foreign income tax on foreign income
    • US citizens and green card holders

    (3) What taxes are eligible
    The deduction is limited to income taxes imposed on the taxpayer by a foreign country. Inheritance tax and consumption tax are not eligible.

    (4) Merit
    • Taxes paid in a foreign country are deducted directly from the "tax" due in the U.S., making the tax reduction very effective.
    • Unlike the exclusion system, there is no dollar limit on the deduction.
    • A wide range of "foreign-source income ( including investment income ) is eligible.
    • Undeducted foreign taxes can be carried forward up to 10 years after the previous ・ year.

    (5) Notes
    • Taxes on income excluded by the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion cannot be deducted.
    • In order to accurately calculate and reflect the foreign tax amount, the tax payment procedure ( withholding and tax return ) must be completed in the foreign country.


    ---Important Points to Know---
    Choice : FEIE and FTC cannot be combined. You must choose one of them to file.
    Continuity ( FEIE ) : Once you elect the FEIE, it automatically applies to the following year, and there is a 5-year limit on re-election after withdrawal.
    Disadvantages ( FEIE ) : If you choose FEIE, you may not be able to use other major tax credits such as Child Tax Credit.
    Flexibility ( FTC ) : Foreign taxes not fully deductible under the FTC can be carried forward for up to 11 years ( 1 year before and 10 years after ).

    In conclusion, it is important to carefully select the most tax-efficient plan, taking into account your income, the tax rate in your country of residence, the number of children you have, and the types of deductions you wish to take in the U.S.

    Inheritance Tax in the U.S. and Japan / Living Gifts

    Differences between Gift and Estate Taxes in the U.S.

    There seems to be a lot of talk recently in the news about changes to the estate tax in Japan. Since the inheritance tax in Japan is high and Tax Credit seems to be low, many people in Japan are quite concerned about the inheritance tax. We have seen several Japanese people in the U.S. asking about the Estate&Gift Tax.

    Lifetime Gift Tax Exemption

    The Lifetime Gift Exemption in the US as of 2021 is $ $11.7Million. This includes all living gifts and estates. You have to be a certain wealthy person to exceed it. Most Americans do not pay Estate Tax, so unless you are a millionaire in the US, estate / inheritance tax is of little interest.

    The Annual Exclusion for living gifts is $ 15,000 ( per couple ) Tuition ( tuition ) and Medecal ( insurance ) are not eligible. Even if you exceed $ 15,000, the Life Time Gift Exemption will be applied, so you will not actually pay the tax, only your tax return. Therefore, the first thing that Japanese who have a relationship with the U.S. should pay attention to is whether or not Japanese prenatal and inheritance taxes will be involved.

    If Japanese inheritance tax is not applicable

    First, the assets are in the US. Inheritance ( Donation ) If the person and the decedent have not been in Japan for more than 10 years, Japanese inheritance tax will not apply. Also, if the heir has a Japanese address within 10 years and the decedent has not been in Japan for more than 10 years, Japanese inheritance tax is not applicable.

    When Japanese inheritance tax is applied

    First, if the assets are located in Japan, Japanese inheritance tax is applied regardless of the inheritance and decedent's situation. Also, if the heir is a resident of Japan, the Japanese inheritance tax will be applied to domestic and foreign assets regardless of the situation of the decedent. The Japanese government is quite strict on the inheritance tax. In recent years, there has been increased scrutiny of foreign assets. In light of the Japanese tax system, if a parent living in the U.S. makes a gift to a son ( living in Japan ), it would be desirable to consider both the U.S. and Japanese tax systems and make sure that the gift does not exceed the limit of 1,100,000 yen ) in Japan.

    SNS Customer Attraction × How to "ensure results" with product launches

    I also do social networking. I've also learned about launches. But sales are not stable.
    The reason is simple.

    SNS and launches are "separated".

    What many people do is

    ・ send out information on SNS for now
    ・ launch when followers increase
    ・ if it does not sell, post more

    repeat.

    But this will be a "launch by luck".
    Automation in the absence of sales will lock in a flow of unsuccessful sales.

    No special talent is needed. All you need is "design.
    If built in the right order, SNS is not just a tool to transmit information, but an asset that generates stable sales.

    Why did
    a person with monthly sales of 200,000 to 500,000 yen, who had been in a slump with uncertainties about his future, achieve monthly sales of 1.2 million yen within one month of starting his business and over 10 million yen after one year?

    I will tell you the reason step by step.

    I should file Tax Return ?" ---Basics of U.S. Taxation that you may not know

    Should I File a Tax Return ? The Basics of U.S. Taxation That You May Not Know"

    1. Introduction : Unexpectedly many "people who really need to file a tax return"
    "Do I need to file a tax return? ? "Do I need to file a Tax Return?

    - I received withholding tax in Japan …
    - I retired and my income is low …
    - My company is withholding …

    Many people think that they have to file a Tax Return ( tax return ) but they do not file it.
    However, failure to file can lead to serious risks later, including additional tax ・ penalties ・ and adverse effects on the immigration process.
    This article explains
    ✔ whether you are eligible for Tax Return
    ✔ and
    what the benefits of Tax Return are.

    2. What is Tax Return ( Tax Return ) in the first place ?
    In the US,
    • even if taxes are withheld from your salary
    • and your company issues W-2 or 1099
    the individual is still responsible for properly calculating and reporting his/her annual income to the IRS.
    The taxpayer cannot rely on the company to "do it all" and the ultimate responsibility is the taxpayer him/herself.

    3. Who "must" file a Tax Return ?
    ( Those whose income exceeds a certain amount Most typical ) ( See : Image 1 )
    Age ・ There is a threshold amount for each filing status and it is determined if the threshold amount is exceeded.
    • Salary
    • Self-employment income
    • Investment income
    • Foreign income
    All of these are included.

    (2) Self-employment ( sole proprietorship ) income in excess of $ 400 per year
    Uber, freelance, influencer income, etc
    → even if amount is small $ over 400, you are obliged to file a tax return.

    (3) Nonresidents with US source income ( 1040NR )
    • Dividends from US investments ・ Interest
    • US real estate income
    • Studying abroad and taxable scholarship
    • Part-time work in the U.S.
    etc. must be reported on a 1040NR.

    Cases where even dependents or spouses with (4) ITIN need to file
    e.g. investment income or interest on US accounts.

    4. Conversely, people who are not required to file but "should" file
    (1) Withholding is too high → Refund is available
    Tax is taken from your wages If this is the case, you must declare it or you will not get it back.
    (2) Education Expenses ・ Child Credit
    • Child Tax Credit
    • American Opportunity Credit
    and other refundable credits that you must report to get. Credits are available.
    (3) People whose Social Security or Medicare records are affected
    Self-employed people who do not file risk having their future pension ( SSA ) reduced.

    5. Advantages of Filing a Tax Return
    Benefits ① Money Back ( Potential Refund )
    It is not unusual for the amount returned to be several thousand dollars.
    Advantages ② Advantage in immigration process ( Visa ・ Green Card )
    Failure to declare
    • Renewal of status
    • Green Card
    • Permanent Residency Application
    Many times you will be asked why you have not filed.
    Advantages ③ Reduce risk of later IRS investigation
    Not filing is the most dangerous situation.
    If you file a return, it is easier to prove if a tax audit comes later.
    Benefits ④ Past subsidies ・ Tax credit payments
    Corona benefits distributed during the pandemic ( EIP ) were not received because "people did not file a Tax Return. There were large numbers of people who "did not receive the benefits because they did not make a Tax Return. Some subsidies and credits can be received later by filing a Tax Return ( within 3 years ).

    7. Summary : Check with an expert to see if you are eligible
    Tax returns are becoming more complex every year, and it is easy to make a mistake if you do not have expertise in determining residency, bilateral taxation, credit systems, etc. It is very easy to make a mistake if you don't have any specialized knowledge.
    "I don't know if I need to file"
    "I feel like I have to file"
    If so, consulting with a professional can greatly reduce your risk of
    missing a tax refund ・ in the future.
