I've had my car repaired at various places - but I can't seem to find the right place.
The price is not clear, the finish is not good, the delivery time is not good enough, etc. …
Do you have any recommendations for places to go ??

#262 Komaki. When I was a student, I worked part-time at Club Butterfly🦋 in Hollywood, I believe. I remember Kiri-san, the bartender at that time, very well. He was a great help to me and was very knowledgeable about fortune-telling🔮, etc. I also had my fortune read. I wonder if he is still alive and well now ? I would appreciate any information you may have.

When a child ( younger ) goes to the restroom when out and about, do parents follow along with the child ? when a mother takes her son to the men's restroom, it is not safe for him to go alone because she is afraid something might happen. I wonder ? how old it is safe to take him into the women's restroom in the U.S. and I wonder if it is safe to take him into the men's restroom.
If you don't mind, please answer.

I hear that you should have 10 times your annual income saved before you retire.
Did you all save that much before you retired ??

Please let me know if you know of an OB/GYN with Japanese speaking staff in the Irvine, Anaheim, Walnut, Covina, Diamond Bar, or Chino area !

I just recently found out I am pregnant.
I go to Torrance for my internist, but it takes over an hour from my house on the highway, which is too far for me to go for a prenatal checkup, so I am looking for a closer location.

Kashiwabara OB/GYN is temporarily closed, and Suzuki OB/GYN has a referral page on the web but is not listed on Google maps.

Thank you very much!

Global Entry Entry

When I entered the U.S. from Europe using Global Entry the other day, after having my picture taken on the monitor, the officer called my name one by one and I was allowed to enter the U.S. immediately. When I asked why I had never been treated differently before, I was told that everyone says so.
I don't see the point of receiving a global entry...
I know there are quite a few people in the U.S. with name discrepancies, but do you all use Global Entry? ?
I'm thinking about lining up with the examiner's example from the beginning.

Social Security name change, etc.

I have a question for those who have had a name change, such as registering in the US, or have had similar experiences with SSN, DMV.

I was in the US on OPT which expires 2/29/2024 and I married a US citizen in the US in November 2023. I am currently in the pending period of obtaining a green card.

Since I am on OPT, my driver's license will also expire on 2/29 tied to that, so I went to the DMV with the I-797c I received in the green card application process and the EAD for my life until 2/29, hoping to get my license before it expires.
They accepted those two as documents for renewal of my license, but to my foolishness, I had forgotten to change my SSN name and was told that I could not renew because my name in the system was still my maiden name.
(I-797c was issued with my new last name. )

I panicked and went to the Social Security office to try to change my name, but was told, "Your current EAD until 2/29 has too little validity left to change your name." They also did not accept my I-797c and Marriage Certificate.

I tried to apply for AB60 because I need a car to live without, but one DMV said, "No, because it's a pending green card period and you don't qualify as someone who can apply in the first place." Another DMV said "I-797c can't do it, you need to bring your I-797" etc. I am confused.

Long story short, my question is
・ Is there any way to get a license under these circumstances?
・ Once the I-797 arrives, can I use it to rename my SSN ? Has anyone had such an experience ? Will I have to wait endlessly for the new EAD to arrive … tears

Rough question Sorry for the sketchy question, but if anyone can lend me some wisdom, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

Hello. I have a question regarding the renewal of my 10 year permanent residency. My wife and I applied last year on January 25, 2021, and our fingerprints were taken on March 20 of that year. And my Green Card was received within 10 days. However, my wife's I-90 is still under examination and she has not received her Green Card. It has been 14 months since I received my Green Card. Is this a common case ??

Shipping Liquor to Japan

Question

I would like to send wine, whiskey, and other alcoholic beverages to Japan as a gift
but I was wondering if anyone knows of a company that can ship them. ?
From my research, it seems that there are restrictions on regulations and licenses
and I'm not sure if it is possible to mail them. I am pondering.

Also, I am assuming shipping from home, not from a winery or brewery.

Thank you!
