About Global Entry and TSA Precheck Name

Question

Hello.
For those who have applied for Global Entry, I think it comes with TSA Precheck, but the name ( last name ) on the green card and passport are different, can you take the ticket with the name on the passport and use TSA Precheck without problems

My passport is Hanako Yamada(Smith) and my green card is Hanako Smith.

I used to have no problem, but recently I read somewhere that the system has been unified, and if the names don't match exactly, Precheck will not be attached, and I was looking forward to being able to use it.

I would like to get information from those who have flown internationally in the recent past, whether they were able to use it or not.

When we got married in Japan, we originally planned to change our surname, but my husband's surname on his passport is JR, and the city office, which is not very flexible, insisted that they could not accept it unless it was the same as his passport, I had to decide whether to become a junior or keep my maiden name, and I decided to keep my maiden name. So, even if I changed my surname in Japan, it does not match my US ID ( green card or drivers license ).

Electricity Bills

Question

  • 2025/01/20 14:56

I am thinking of moving now and since it is a cold area, I will probably use the heater 24 hours a day in the winter.
My previous rooms had radiator type heaters, so it didn't affect my electric/gas bill, but I am wondering how much my electric bill would be if I lived in a room with a Baseboard Heater.
I googled and found it to be $ 500-1000 per month, and if it really costs that much, I am thinking of avoiding a room with a Baseboard Heater.
I would be happy to hear your experiences.

Marriage after overstay, green card

Problem / Need advice
#1

  • 2024/11/08 07:40

Hello. I entered the country previously on a tourist visa to meet my American boyfriend (now husband). My boyfriend became sick with an internal disease and while I was taking care of him, his visa expired and he overstayed. We later married in the U.S. and my husband is now healthy and he has a stable income. I have never worked in the US. I am applying for a green card, but I am paroling ? because of my overstay and I think I will have to go back to the US Embassy in Japan for an interview.
I am quite anxious because Trump will be president for a period of time. I am worried that I will not be able to re-enter Japan ? if I go back to Japan because of the alternative situation due to Trump being tough on immigrants.
I would appreciate your advice or anyone with similar experiences. Sorry for the rambling.

Where you can buy mochi

Question

I know I can buy it at a Japanese supermarket, but I want to buy it as cheaply as possible because I want to make fried mochi, which is made by crushing mochi, drying it and frying it.
My friend wants to make it in a potluck at home and it will be quite a lot and the price is 😭
I tried to find something like Japanese cut rice cake in a Chinese supermarket but there is none, so I am wondering if that cut rice cake is something unique to Japan ? ? I am not sure.
I was expecting to be able to buy them cheaper in Chinese supermarkets.
If you know where I can buy them cheaply in large quantities, please let me know.

I don't know if he's good enough now.

I have a very sweet Asian boyfriend, but I get the impression that he is not thinking about our future or becoming a family. I am not sure if I want to marry him or not due to our different values. I am feeling impatient because of my age since I am not young, but it is also very difficult to meet Japanese people here in America. I am not sure if I can go out with him. I am not sure if it is safe to go out with a Japanese person. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

About Cooking Classes in Japanese in Los Angeles

Hello everyone.

I have been researching Japanese cooking classes in Los Angeles, and most of the classes I have found seem to be taught in English. I have the impression that most of the classes are held for English speakers.

If anyone knows of any cooking classes that are taught in Japanese, please let me know ? I would be very grateful, especially if there are classes where the explanation and instruction is given in Japanese !

Thank you.

I was told I was infected with a virus and listened to him
came with a clever trick
conversation pretending to be a banker
bank is in my neighborhood so I went to the branch, but no such person exists and lied
the banker and the person I was talking to hung up.
Beware of scams targeting the elderly.

I'm a woman in her twenties, married and raising a family here in Japan.
My brother would like to go to a language school for a short term starting in the spring, but he doesn't have any friends around him who go to language school and I can't gather much information. I would like to know if there are any good language schools in the Gardena&Torrance area.
Thanks in advance.
