On in Gardena ・ I heard there is a Mahjong tournament every Sunday at a place called LAPOM by the East-West Plaza in Western
I heard it is a competitive Mahjong and the rules and etiquette are very strict and you have to be very careful if you go there.

In ancient customs and cultures, it was common to refrain from celebrations in the year of the death of someone close to you. In Japan, in particular, there is a period of mourning ( called momochu ) during which it is customary to avoid celebrations and fancy events. The mourning period usually lasts one year from the date of death.

However, in today's society, individual families and communities may differ in their responses. While some people honor tradition and observe the custom of mourning, others choose to continue with their daily lives while remembering the deceased.

It is important to be respectful of your neighbor's feelings and cultural background when dealing with Christmas gifts. If you have concerns, you may want to ask for confirmation beforehand or choose a modest, heartwarming gift.

Difference between citizenship and permanent residence

Question

  • Lilly

  • 2024/11/16 08:05

I would like to know everyone's thoughts or experiences. I am currently pregnant with my second child and considering having the baby in Japan for various reasons. Our first child was born in the U.S., so we are dual internationals. We are both Permanent Residents and I have a current renewal receipt that allows me to come and go from Japan to the US until 2027.

I know that if I give birth in Japan, my child will be a Permanent Resident when we come back together, but has anyone raised a child in the US as a Permanent Resident ?

Have there been any inconveniences ? I have not had any inconveniences so far. I have not experienced any inconvenience with permanent residency so far, so I don't know of any disadvantages that I am familiar with. I would like to know before deciding that I will give birth in Japan.


Please help me !

I think the most important point is,

Once you get citizenship, unless you renounce your US citizenship in the future,
you have to pay taxes to the US for the rest of your life, even if you live in Japan or other countries outside the US.
Even if you don't live in the US.

If you live in a foreign country with permanent resident status, depending on the length of your stay
permanent resident status will no longer be available, but
taxes will follow even if permanent resident status is no longer available.

JAL VS ANA

Please let me know which airline you all use when returning to Japan

Basically, I want to return home cheaply, but I recently became an ANA frequent flyer member. I recently heard that with JAL, if you book a Japan domestic flight at the same time, the Japan domestic flight is free.

How do you decide which airline to fly with when returning to Japan?

JAL VS ANA
I think what you want to know is JAL vs ANA, then you should write "cheap airlines"
If you're looking for cheap flights, frequent flyer membership is just a drag.
ANA and JAL are expensive, so it takes a long time to accumulate mileage.

> Recently JAL offers free Japan domestic flights if booked at the same time


Ho, this is new to me, but I think the period or conditions must be tight.

There used to be such a benefit for LAX - HND/NRT in business class.

I fly JAL or ANA once a year to/from Japan and always fly Haneda ↔ Shikoku on domestic flights.

Please tell me more about that free promotion.

These days, one way ¥ is almost always over 10,000.

Marriage after overstay, green card

Problem / Need advice
#1
  • mail
  • 2024/11/08 07:40

Hello. I entered the country previously on a tourist visa to meet my American boyfriend (now husband). My boyfriend became sick with an internal disease and while I was taking care of him, his visa expired and he overstayed. We later married in the U.S. and my husband is now healthy and he has a stable income. I have never worked in the US. I am applying for a green card, but I am paroling ? because of my overstay and I think I will have to go back to the US Embassy in Japan for an interview.
I am quite anxious because Trump will be president for a period of time. I am worried that I will not be able to re-enter Japan ? if I go back to Japan because of the alternative situation due to Trump being tough on immigrants.
I would appreciate your advice or anyone with similar experiences. Sorry for the rambling.

citizenship in that country, the other country will be contacted.

You can get an estimate from Home Depot first.
You can also get quotes from other local contractors.
The actual work is done by Mexican workers, but they are like supervisors, so they care about the workmanship. The actual work is done by Mexican workers, but they are like supervisors, so they are concerned about the quality of the work. You can also complain to them.

Is it safe to eat an apple that has been bitten by a squirrel or bird if you cut off the bitten part

The following points should be noted :

Risk of pathogens: parts of the animal that have been gnawed by wildlife may carry pathogens or parasites. Squirrels and birds, in particular, can carry germs as they travel from one place to another.

Judging by appearance: If the nibbled part is small and visually unremarkable, the nibbled part may be cut off and eaten. However, it is important to do so with great care.

Washing and disinfecting: Washing the apple thoroughly and, if possible, disinfecting it with an edible disinfectant before eating can reduce the risk.

All in all, if safety is important, it is safer not to eat apples that have been bitten by squirrels or birds.

I was born in the Showa period, and I ate cabbage and other vegetables full of worm-eaten holes and caterpillars, but I didn't mind. !
If they ate squirrels, it would be a problem, but if they ate apples, I'd eat them.

It's different because different exchanges make different portals.
When you look at your account, I think there are asset details, buy/sell, etc.
There is a monthly movement report in there.
It's not mailed to you like a stock, saying it's a report. I'm not sure how to buy the Showa Ototsuan, so you could ask your friend about that as well. The basics are the same as stock.
If there is a crypto asset you are interested in, just look at the chart and buy or sell.
