In the near future, foreigners, including illegal aliens in the U.S., will no longer be able to sign up for cell phones in the U.S. If they cannot prove their status, they will be forcibly terminated and SMS verification will be impossible. This is expected to wipe out illegal aliens from developed countries.

If you are going to leave your bank account, etc. in the US, you might as well leave your phone without canceling it.
If you are worried about the phone bill, how about switching to a phone with a cheaper plan ？?

I thought it would be better to get divorced early, and of course buy the house later
Prepare for divorce now.

In CA, in the event of a divorce, post-marital property is split 50/50.

You can put the property in your own name at the time of purchase.　If you also pay the down payment and loan from your personal assets （ premarital savings or inheritance from your parents ）, it will not be considered "community property" in the event of divorce.　Some spouses will argue over custody, so if you don't need to buy now, it is safer to rent for the time being and buy after the divorce.　

Do you have enough income to take out a loan on your own? ？
You should keep good records of the down payment and loan payments coming out of your personal account.

Thank you all
for your replies.
I still think we should prepare for divorce first.

#5 COM
Thank you for the detailed information.
As for whether I can get a loan on my own, in the past I would have had many options for a place to live, but now that this has happened, I will have to change my mind and find somewhere acceptable.

I have an additional question, does anyone know of a Family Law attorney that they can recommend ？
or is there anywhere (other than a lawyer) where I can get divorce advice ？
I know this is a lot, but thank you! I am sorry to keep repeating this, but thank you.

Please note that even if you buy a house in your personal name, it is not considered your personal home in the event of divorce if you subsequently live together.
That is exactly what happened to me.

El Segundo or Culver would be the best choice considering commuting.
The others are far from the freeway.
I don't know the Asian population of North Redondo, Torrance or El Segundo.
Manhattan Beach or Marina Del Rey.

＞ Families with children living in the U.S.

Does that mean that your children are already living in the U.S.?

I don't know if they are studying abroad, but if so, they would probably be limited to within driving distance

of that school.

＞ • Asians must be present to some extent

Here in Los Angeles, "Asians" are everywhere, large and small.

＞ Easy access to Century City, where I commute to work

Morning and evening rush hours can be quite heavy, so

limited to a few miles radius from Century City. It will be limited to a few miles radius from Century City.

Not too far away, just over a mountain to the north, is San Fernando Valley

where I have lived for over 50 years.

Here in the valley, the mountains are about the same size as the hills above and the cool air from the ocean does not come here, so it gets very hot in the summer.

But since there is no humid wind from the ocean, the humidity is extremely low and the temperature is high but not so high that you sweat. However, in summer, the temperature sometimes exceeds 100F (38C).

That's what anyone would normally think, even if they are not blessed with the intelligence of a former super elite expatriate like Mr. Double Kin Man.
Why is he even a candidate for Cypress, the next county over 30 miles away? It is like a person relocating to Tokyo renting an apartment in Ibaraki Prefecture. I am also surprised that Century City is not on the list. I would decide on Century City without hesitation.

I lived in WLA. Around here, there are a few Asian students per class, except in some schools.
Considering the morning and evening traffic jams, I think Culver City or El Segundo, as close as possible, would be a good choice. Other potential locations would take more than an hour each way to commute.
As for schools, you can check out Gratschools.
If it is a 4-5 bedroom, it would be a house, and rents are very high these days, so I don't know if you can rent it for $6000-7000.


The El Segundo school district is small and very nice, but too small to have much choice. I am told that it is mostly white.
Because it is a small community, there are few apartments or other rental properties, rents are high, and I think it would be difficult to find a suitable vacant house.

The Culver City school district is also small, but larger than El Segundo, and the schools on the north side are better.
Note that there are places where the address is Culver City but the school district is LASD.
Culver City has always been a predominantly black area, but there are also more Orientals on the north side, and more black as you go south.

The school district near Century City is not a candidate, probably because it is LASD.
LASD also varies quite a bit from school to school, and there are many good schools, so you could live within commuting distance of a school that meets your needs.
However, rent is also higher in the commuting area of good schools.

If you work in Century City, Culver City, West LA, Mar Vista area would be good.
There are Japanese markets and restaurants.
Torrance has a Japanese community and many Japanese, but Culver City, West LA, Mar Vista area has a good mix. （ I also live in this area ）

Depending on the age of your children, Culver City has a language immersion school elementary school where you can take classes in Japanese.

Torrance, Rancho PV, and El Segundo use the 405 freeway for commuting, and the northbound route toward Century City is congested in the morning.

Cypress is too far away.

Wise is cheaper for low value transfers, but Wise charges at a % of the amount sent, so
if it is 10 or 100 million, the bank is cheaper.

You will probably end up converting to dollars, so you have to think about the exchange fee rather than the shipping cost.
Even at 2 yen per dollar, the bank will take 2 million yen for a million dollars.

Halloween Horror Nights

They are going to do

But as someone who has been giving candy to neighborhood kids in Halloween costumes at home for over 50 years, I would like to see Kay's kids wear funny costumes if possible, go door to door in residential neighborhoods, knock on doors and yell "Trick or Treat" when the door opens. When the door opens, they should shout "Trick or Treat" to receive candy. I know this would be difficult for foreign visitors with children.

My daughter has been to Knott's Berry twice.

She says the maze is fun.

After 11pm all the lights are turned off and they give you a dim flashlight to walk through the maze.

It may be too scary for small children, but I think they will enjoy it because the park is for small children.

I quit drinking alcohol first, avoided fast food as much as possible, cut out sodas and juices
drank 4 500cc bottles of water a day, and drank about 8 oz. of carrot juice cold pressed from carrots, celery, （ lemon, ginger and apple ） three times a day. I gave her about 8 oz. of cold-pressed carrot juice a day in 3 divided doses ｡
In 3 days her blood pressure dropped to 148 → 110 and she is still doing well.
When I took my blood pressure at the hospital, it was 110 and I was praised.
I also ate soup with various vegetables boiled as much as possible.
Sugar raises blood pressure, so I had him cut back on sweets.
However, I was not so concerned about seasoning, and tried to make it as tasty as possible.
We use pink salt for salt. I recommend it because it lowers blood pressure and makes you healthier.

I agree with #2 tomoyan as much as possible.

First of all, due to the size/weight of the car, it will be shipped by sea.

Even so, the shipping cost will be ridiculously high, and after landing in Japan, the car has to go through vehicle inspection,

which will be troublesome and expensive. Even if the car is made in Japan, it will not be exempted from another inspection.

Also, even if the car is made in Japan, the steering wheel is on the left, which makes it difficult to drive on Japanese roads.

What is Akihabara in Kanda, I don't recommend it either.

Not only transportation, but also testing and registration fees
Since it seems that you have to translate all the paperwork in registration by yourself
please think long and hard about whether you are willing to go through all that trouble.
No one will understand your love for your car, so
please measure your love for your car, its cost and effort by yourself!
