Change of Address at DMV

I am embarrassed to admit that this is a very rudimentary question, but I am looking for help.

I went to the DMV website to make the change, but there are two options for change of address
・ Driver's license or ID
・ Vehicle or Vessel
This is the same as the Vehicle or Vessel option. Driver's license or ID Vehicle or Vessel I was wondering if I should also select Vehicle or Vessel and change both ?
I was thinking in general that I could change the address on the DMV registration, so I am not sure, ?
Also, I will be changing my address for my car insurance later.

Just to give you some background,
we recently got married and are in the process of applying for a green card, but we don't plan on living together for a while due to our work schedules.
We consulted a lawyer and he told us to change our address registration for bank, DMV, car insurance, etc. to prepare for the green card interview.

By the way, my marriage partner does not have a car and driver's license, which sadly does not help much.
I would appreciate it if someone could answer my question when you have a chance. Thank you in advance.

If we are going to a weekend game from 405 South, does anyone know which parking lot is recommended for preferred parking, Lot B, Lot P, Lot N, or Lot H? We have young children and are most concerned about crowding in the parking lots.
Seating will be on the floor above behind the back net.

It doesn't matter if it's an old car or a new car
if it makes a brake noise when the brakes are applied, it won't stop if it rains. Tires and brakes are deadly
don't sprinkle them on cars that have nothing to do with them ?.

Noise from brakes ・ The cause of the squeal is most likely wear and tear of the brake pads. Brake pads are gradually worn away by friction with the brake disc each time the brakes are applied. When the friction material is scraped away and the metal part of the brake pad is exposed, the metal rubs against metal, causing an unpleasant squealing sound. However, please be assured that the noise does not mean that the pads are completely gone. Brake pads are equipped with a metal part called a pad wear indicator, which is intentionally designed to squeak at an early stage to indicate wear. There is no medicine for the fools above.

Brake squeal is a strange noise coming from the brakes.

Normal brake squeal is just a quiet "soo ・ ・ ・ ・" braking sound, but a braking sound generated when the brakes are depressed, such as "squeal ・ ・ ・ ・", "go ・ ・ ・ ・" or "clunk clunk" sounds may indicate a problem with the disc brake or drum brake.

A strange noise that is immediately noticeable while driving is worrisome, and if left unchecked, there is a danger that the brakes will stop working.

If there is brake squeal or abnormal noise, there is a need to determine the cause as soon as possible.

The weekday section of Nishiyamato Gakuen is a so-called full-day Japanese school. Since it is a private school, it relies only on tuition fees and there is no teacher dispatch from the Ministry of Education, so it seems to be difficult to manage.

Divorce in Los Angeles

Question

I am a Japanese woman living in Los Angeles with my American husband and we are considering a divorce.
We were registered in Japan and did not file for marriage in the U.S.
I checked with the ward office and the Japanese consulate in LA. I checked with the ward office and the Japanese consulate in LA and they said that if you do not have a certificate of residence in Japan, you cannot get a divorce in Japan, even if your country of marriage is Japan.
So, first divorce procedures are done in the U.S., then once the divorce is finalized, the documents are sent to the Japanese Consulate, and the Consulate forwards them to the Japanese ward office, and the divorce is finalized in Japan.
★ All the conditions for a simple divorce are met except that the other party does not want to sign the divorce papers.
In that case, which form needs to be filled out / and submitted?
Please let me know if anyone knows. Thank you in advance.

I was married to an American for a long time, but last year I filed for divorce as a PETITIONER and did a lot of research on my own until the last step and finished the process without hiring a lawyer or mediator. It was an amicable divorce with someone I could argue calmly with, so it was possible. I am now waiting for the JUDGEMENT. The only cost was the initial FILE fee. \I also took advantage of my employer's MetLife Legal Plan, which is a benefit of my employer, for one 30 minute attorney consultation. I am sure there are local rules in your county, so you may want to check the county family court website for a complete list of the various procedures.

The more Community property the more hassle. In the end, it cost me over $50,000 in legal fees … The other party must have spent more, so over $100,000 for the two of us combined. I recommend using Mediator if you can.

Minor child enters Japan with U.S. passport

Does anyone have experience with a minor U.S. citizen child with Japanese parents who entered Japan with only a U.S. passport? I am asking this question in case I can't renew it in time.
I have checked past information and it seems that even minors can stay in Japan as a foreigner with an American passport, but I wanted to know about recent cases. We would appreciate your cooperation.

Many times in the past, minor children have entered Japan ・ short term with only a US passport.

After the pandemic, there was a time when you could only enter Japan with a Japanese passport ( Japanese nationality ) but
now you can enter normally with an American passport.
In fact, last summer, I entered Japan with an American passport to use the JR Pass, and had no problem.

The only difference between the two passports is whether you have to wait in line for Japanese nationals or foreigners ( or visitors ) at the immigration checkpoint at the airport.
The only other difference is that every time I go to the airport, I am told by the airport staff, "Next time, please enter the country with a Japanese passport. I don't know why, but I am usually told that every time.


For your information.

No one asked you how to get to Del Amo from home. It clearly states that you don't depart from home, but from around Del Amo.

In terms of security, Santa Monica is rather safer. Santa Monica has many homeless people, though. In terms of economics, El Camino College is better in terms of rent and food. Also, 20 years ago when I was a student, El Camino was very, very loose.

There aren't many students in this community, so I think you'd get fresher information if you DM people who go to either college on Instagram or FB and ask them directly.
In any case, good luck with your new beginning.

If you really want to improve your "English conversation" skills, come to San Fernando Valley where there are very few Japanese people.

there are some non-UC State Colleges in this valley.

There is also a college near my house called California State University, Northridge.

I am a Japanese citizen in my 50s and have been living in the U.S. with a green card. I would like to return to Japan to take care of my parents, and after their death, I would like to live in the U.S. again with a green card. My parents have no chronic diseases and are in good health. In other words, there is no expiration date on their residence in Japan. I understand that I can only provisionally waive for about 2 years to temporarily return to Japan with a green card. If anyone has ever re-instated after living in Japan with a waiver, I would appreciate your advice.
