I was denied a student visa a few months after applying for esta.
My mother remarried and lives in the US, so they thought I was here for permanent residence.

I wonder if the Esta is no longer available now that my student visa was denied ？
I would like to come to the US to visit my mother for a week or so, but will I still need a B2 visa ？

Thank you in advance.

Bank account registered with treasurydirect

Problem / Need advice

I am a former Union Bank user.
I had an account at treasurydirect.gov and had Union Bank registered, but now that US Bank has absorbed it, my bank number and account number have changed and I need to change them.
treasurydirect's system is cumbersome and I have to go all the way to the bank to change my bank account, have a document stamped like a notary seal and mail it in.
The first US bank branch I went to refused to do the paperwork, another branch rejected it on treasurydirect's side because it was stamped with something like a regular rubber stamp at first, and on the third try, even though I had it properly notarized and mailed, treasurydirect The reason was that the bank could not confirm it. The reason was that they could not verify the bank.
It said to check if the bank number or account number is wrong or if the bank supports ACH, but I have checked the routing number and account number many times and they are correct, and I honestly don't think UA bank does not support ACH, and I am at a loss.
Can anyone who is familiar with financial matters please advise me ？.

I just visited a Ramen restaurant on PCH. Smart Final in Redondo Beach.
I love this place because the ramen is very good and the people working there are very nice.
I don't have a problem with the restaurant, I have a problem with the bad manners of the customers. It was a female customer in her 50s. She was there with what I assume was her husband.
The woman said in a loud voice for everyone to hear,
"Waitress girl, you ？ go out of your way to speak English and brag that you can speak English ？ a little better pronunciation and brag 。。。。" Here in America, I was just responding to another customer in English. It is normal to respond in English to customers who speak to you in English.
Why are you saying such mean things ？
Are you venting by saying it ？
And your husband is the one who can't stop it and is listening.

I felt sorry for the child who worked so hard.

I don't know why there are so many Japanese ladies who say things like that.
I wonder why ？.

Tokyo Central's vegetables are definitely not good. I wonder if they are just getting discarded Chinese cabbage from other supermarkets and putting it on the shelves.

No vegetables at Tokyo Central next to Bookoff ～ 👎 Mold spores are fluffy, you have to look closely, it's not at the level of no good. The sign says fresh, but …
Also, this store, I'm worried about the meat processor, he's talking without a mask, give me a break.

The sushi roller at the big Tokyo Central, talking without a mask, spitting all over the place - I won't buy ！
Anyway, he likes to talk

The guy at the fish counter cuts silently and wears a mask, and there are new small packs of sashimi, too. I'm glad to be able to buy a variety of sashimi in new small packs. The squid processed for sashimi is delicious.

＞ No vegetables at Tokyo Central next to Book-Off ～

I don't understand the raison d'etre of that place, even though there is a main store nearby.
It will close when the lease is up.

Sashimi is raw, so a mask is a must. Meat is cooked, so no mask is acceptable.

I sold all my individual stocks and put them all in the index （ S&P500 ）.
This one has Apple, Tesla, and all the rest, so I don't have to worry about it.
Maybe it's for people who aren't picky.
Aim is to increase 10% per year.

I have a huge house and a dog, so my air conditioner bill is close to 1000 in summer $ so I go outside during the day, for example to Starbucks
it doesn't have to be Starbucks

Starbucks is convenient, so I go there. ？
There are always people who say Starbucks coffee tastes bad
Then why don't you go there
I don't have to go to Starbucks

It's not saving money 😂I think you mean saving electricity

I don't think people who really like coffee would say Starbucks is good. I didn't know anyone who was a coffee connoisseur enough to order something and go to Starbucks. I don't care where I go because I don't know much about coffee. I don't know what it tastes like, so it's like I'm paying for the place. I go to Starbucks with my mom's friends to kill time (like when I'm waiting to pick up my children from school). It's easy for me to go there because I know everyone there, and it's easy to choose.

I leave the air conditioner on if there is a dog in the house.
And it costs less electricity to leave the air conditioner on than to turn it off every time.

I wouldn't take my dog with me when it's hot, and leave the dog at home without air conditioning while I cool off outside? I don't understand this person.

Traveling on a J1 visa for people in their 30s

Work / Career

I am a man in my early 30s currently working in Japan.
I have always wanted to work in the U.S. and am considering taking a trainee job on a J1 visa to gain experience.

This program is called the American version of the work-holiday, but what is it really like?
Actually, I had planned to travel to the U.S. in the past but had to give it up because of corona. Since I am in my 30s, I wonder if it would be worth it to go if I could gain some experience, but I am wondering if it would be too subtle as I am a trainee and would not be appreciated much upon my return.

Agents have a strong business component, so they give good advice, but what is the actual situation?
By the way, my current job is IT-related, but it is not a technical job like a programmer.

If any of you have experience with this, I would like to know more about it. Best regards.
