Dual nationals Temporary return with corona disaster

Question
#1
  • でんです

If anyone has a dual nationality who has recently returned to Japan, please let me know.
Until now （ before Corona ） I did the following.

To purchase tickets, enter US passport information as an American
Show US passport at ticket counter （ Show Japanese passport if asked ）
To enter Japan, show Japanese passport
＜ When returning to the US ＞
Show your US passport at the ticket counter
Show your Japanese passport when leaving Japan
Show your US passport when entering the US

But in the Corona Disaster, Americans need a visa.
So I have to do many procedures as a Japanese.
Is the following method sufficient?

To buy ticket, enter Japanese passport information as Japanese
Show Japanese passport at ticket counter
To enter Japan, show Japanese passport
＜ When coming back to US ＞
Show your US passport at the ticket counter （ ？ Even though you purchased with a Japanese passport ？ ）
Show your Japanese passport when leaving Japan
Show your US passport when entering the US

If I am wrong, I would be very grateful if you could point it out.
I am trying to call the airline, but the waiting time is too long and I can't get through.
Thank you very much.

#62 Mr. Manikintan,

I entered and left Narita airport.

#65 Mr. Bokeh,

I can buy a ticket with my American passport; at the check-in counter at LAX, I showed my Japanese passport to get a boarding pass. ？ I think the person at the check-in counter knew I was buying a ticket with an American passport, but as soon as I showed him my Japanese passport, he issued me a boarding pass. Of course, I also had a fast track, so I prepared that with my Japanese passport and showed the blue color of my application at the check-in counter. But this is not really relevant to you, is it? My apologies.

Whenever I arrange a ticket, I always enter my passport number and visa status.
You mean they will let me issue a ticket and board the plane even if I give a different ID at the LAX counter?
I wonder how they check if the ticket buyer and the passenger are the same person ？ If they are different people, there could be a terrorist attack.

How can I leave the US and come back from Japan?

If I present my American passport at the check-in counter at the airport in Japan,
it may look suspicious because there is no entry record.

And vice versa, if I present my Japanese passport and it is not stamped with a visa for entry into the U.S.,
they may ask, "You don't have a visa for entry into the U.S.

Green card holders with Japanese passport aliases

Question
#1
  • ざら

  • 2022/12/16 07:05

I learned from reading on the internet that many people had the same experience.
When I went back to my hometown, I was instructed by JAL to purchase a ticket with Hanako YamadaSmith as my name on the ticket and passport. I have read that it is now possible to put a space between "Yamada" and "Smith". However, when returning to the U.S., the name on my green card, Hanako Smith, is different from my name on my green card, so I get an X at the immigration kiosk, which is a hassle. I was even sent to another room. It is not that I cannot enter the country, but it is depressing every time. I would like to know about the experiences of green card holders who have recently returned to their home countries. Is the situation still the same?

Prius converter was stolen.

Question

  • みん

  • 2022/11/23 18:45

The following topic was no longer available for writing, so we have started it up again.
https://losangeles.vivinavi.com/eb/index/-?topic_id=_widg_1a00f2dcc0a1bbf880f8a9dda39961c4fa92112005&show=all#_widg_1a00f2dcc0a1bbf880f8a9dda39961c4fa92112005

I was just about to start the engine of a car that was parked on the street when I heard an explosion and someone nearby ran to my car and said, "The converter is I think it's been stolen. It was stolen from my car last night ！."

I thought I had seen a post like this on Vivinavi... So I read the past topics.
I was too shocked... The prices are the same, but it's the holiday season and many mechanics are closed... Crying
I've done a lot of research and it seems that there is some kind of anti-theft cover, but has anyone actually worn or had one installed?
I asked because it would be very painful to have it stolen again even if I put it on newly, and I wanted to know if there is any countermeasure.
In addition, the garage only has space for two cars, and with three cars, one of them will inevitably be parked on the street.

I don't want to post the same thing over and over again, but why don't you read the responses?
You can easily read the news online too.
What if I write about actual damage that happened, but you don't read the responses and keep saying similar things?

Thefts only take a few minutes, so if there are no shields or other security measures in place, they will take it without caring if there is some noise. (Some people have been robbed even if they have security measures in place. \v463> Also, even if you have an alarm installed, you are still being victimized, and by the time you realize it, it has been stolen, and even if you rush to the scene immediately, you will most likely not get away unscathed, such as one part of the CAT has been severed.
Of course, some people have been caught, but the damage is still ongoing.
Even in quiet residential areas, areas known to be safe, there are victims.

This is not rare news, and I am surprised that people are saying this now.
Let's find out for ourselves.

I wonder if anyone else has the same problem... I thought I would start a topic.

I have been coming to the US for about 20 years.
I did not come here because I wanted to, but because of my partner's situation.
Everyone has different reasons for coming to the U.S., and they may have different reasons, such as study, work, pursuing a dream, etc.
I think it is more like a dream. I didn't come to the U.S. with a positive attitude, and I still suffer from stress and anxiety and think about Japan.
Since I have spent every day in such a negative way, my English has not improved because I keep running away from it, and I continue to have a strange feeling of discomfort, as if I have missed the opportunity to get used to a very normal daily life.

Is there anyone else in my situation?

I'm a fan now and back to feeling like a young high school student 🙄.

The old man doesn't have a word of advice, but he's always out there to give people crap. Be careful on the train, though. It doesn't go through very nice places.
I'd still prefer to take an Uber or something for safety.
