Those who have not reported moving out of Japan

Sometimes there are people who stay in the U.S. for a long period of time and do not remove their Japanese resident card.
They are not illegal residents, but people with visas or green cards ( who may be American citizens ? ).
In that case, you will not have to continue to pay National Insurance and Resident Tax. In that case, I think I have to keep paying National Insurance and Resident's Tax (???), but does anyone know what the benefits are to not report moving abroad ?

Please help me.

Japanese Pension Sending Fee Refunds, US Bank

For June 15, $ I received a
50 refund ($ 25x2) in about a week from US Bank, but
for August 15, today ( September 16, ) there is still no refund.

When I called US Bank's Japanese service on Aug. 25,
a woman with solid Japanese explained it to me politely.

She told me that
they are working on an automated program
for refunds, but until then it will be a manual process
which will take time.

He also said
that we will be notified in writing if the refund is cancelled.

Has anyone already received a refund for August 15


Thank you in advance.

DMV operation test

I am currently driving with a California Driver License with a provisional license. I am planning to take the driving test soon to get my real license, but I don't know anyone who has a driver's license. So I am looking for a company that can accompany me on the same day at a traffic school or similar. If anyone knows of such a company that is inexpensive and reliable, I would love to know about it.
Thanks in advance.

You will find a kind-hearted person who will provide you with a safe car and you will be able to take the test.

Dear #7
Topix says " no one I know has a driver's license" and says he drives with a provisional license.
I remember when I got my license I could not drive alone with a provisional license, has that changed?

What do you want to do with this Tobi, I am driving with a provisional license.
When you say traffic school, do you mean that you violated the MOVING VIOLATION with a provisional license?
For example, I lived in Japan for 3 years and came back to L.A. and got a new license with DMV
but it is the same as my old license.
The content of Tobi's comment is strange.

You can't use your own car to take this test, so
you would have someone with a car go with you and take the road test in that car.

If you bought a car with a provisional license, and you can take that own car to the DMV to take the road test
you would take the road test as is, so you are looking for someone who doesn't have a driver license.

14 Was it the provisional license that expired?

Rooms in the 80's

If you are about to enter your 80's or are currently in your 80's, let's talk about all kinds of things.

I am about to enter my 80s.

The first big change in my life is that I am no longer living in a car. The first major change in my life is that I no longer have to worry about insurance, registration,
maintenance, gasoline costs, accidents, etc.

I can now get most of my groceries, household items, etc.

delivered online, so I can

get them done at home, even if it costs a little more. I mainly use Instcart
to order from Tokyou Central, Costoco, etc.

If I need to go to the dentist or other dentist appointments occasionally, I can get free pickup and drop-off with my Medicare insurance. Over-the-counter medicines are also available from the CVS catalog for $120 every 3 months, which is a very nice system. )

My husband and I also enjoy our entertainment online.

We are still vaguely concerned about our health and our children, but no matter what happens,

we are determined to live a peaceful life.


I would like to talk with you about your lifestyle and what you are trying to do on a daily basis.

We are considering Refacing our kitchen cabinets.

contractor for the type of cabinet and the size of the doors, but

I wanted to know the approximate cost.

The doors are 9 large and 9 small . and there are about 8 drawers.

Also, please let us know if you have any recommendations.


Also, please let us know if you have any suggestions.
