Mail Forwarding to Japan

A couple of our neighbors who have been very kind to us have returned to Japan permanently.
They asked me to forward their mail to my address and I have done so.
But I also have tax, Medicare, and other important mail.
Each time I send them to Japan, I wonder if there is a system to forward them directly to Japan ？

I wonder what I should do if I think the mail will keep coming for the rest of my life.
I made the mistake of agreeing to it so easily.

Please let me know.

I don't understand how people can leave the important post-processing to others to return to Japan permanently

It looks like it will reach me for the rest of my life. I made the mistake of accepting it because we were like family. I will send only what I consider important documents to Japan. I will also consult with the post office. Thank you all very much.

I have a similar experience.
A friend of mine, a grandmother in her late 60s, asked me to rent her address for a year, and I agreed for one year, and it has been 5 years. She had asked a friend before, but one day she was furious and said she could no longer use the friend's address. I didn't understand why her friend was so furious, but when I tried it, I understood. It takes up a lot of my sober time.

Furthermore, she is not good at English, doesn't trust online banking so she doesn't do it, and everything is analog, so I had to translate letters when they came, scan them, email or line them, and all the tedious paperwork came as a bonus. At the time, I was pregnant and currently very busy raising my child. I never thought I would have to do it for so long. I asked many times to ask other friends to do it for me, but they cried that there was no one who could do it for me, and here I am. No matter how close you are, this process is tough to do for more than a year. Please be careful everyone.

I wonder what they would do if they leave their bank account here to return to Japan permanently. You could go to the SS office and change your receiving account for your pension in the US and they would send it to you. Japanese pension is every two months, so if you go back and open a bank account and change the pension transfer.
