Hello.
I am attending a university in California on an F1 visa.

I am currently working in Japan as a part time intern for a company that has a branch office in Los Angeles. 2020 I took a class in the fall semester as part of my curriculum that gave me credit for doing an internship. I am still continuing it as a part-time job. I am going back to LA this week, is it illegal for me to work remotely while being a student in the US with my current company ？ Also, do I or the company only pay taxes in Japan or do I have to pay taxes in the US ？ I have a certificate of residence in Japan. I am confused because some articles on the internet say that I am allowed to work if the money is transferred to my Japanese account in Japanese yen, while others say that I am not allowed to work over there. By the way, my job is to write blog posts for the company's website.

I will graduate in the spring semester, then I will return to Japan and join the company in September 2021.

I would appreciate it if you could let me know.

A topic about Tip in restaurants seems to have caught fire. The flame is caused by the fact that the topic owner does not know that it is not customary in the U.S. to offer Tip when ordering TO GO, but it seems that people in the restaurant industry are taking advantage of this and are spreading false information in order to get Tip. It is normal in the U.S. not to pay Tip for TO GO, but it is also a reality that about 10% of Americans voluntarily pay a dollar or so.

If you look up Tip in TO GO on Google, you will see some Tip-hungry posts that seem to be from people in the restaurant industry. I will offer a common sense explanation that is not so. This information is mainly for tourists coming to the US from other English-speaking countries.

"For cafes or takeaway restaurants that do not offer table service, you are typically not obligated to leave a tip."

"Buying food or drinks over the counter doesn't incur any gratuity but you can throw a dollar in the ever-present tip jar if you feel like it."

"A tip is for good service (someone bringing food drink to your table, keeping on top of your requests etc.) but with takeout You're buying a product.Its similar to going to McDonalds or Wendy's."

As for hair salons in San Gabriel, I am not sure if it is the same place you mentioned, but there used to be a Japanese owned hair salon in Arcadia where I had my hair straightened several times. I think it was there until about 2015, but I think it went out of business a few years ago.
I went to Japanese salons here and there for many years, but I couldn't find a good hair straightener in the U.S. I try to go there when I go back to Japan, but when I can't go back much, I go to a Korean salon in K-town. Koreans put a lot of effort into their beauty, so they are very attentive and close to Japanese tastes. A hair straightening plus cut and treatment set is $ 250. If you are not satisfied with Japanese salons, Korean salons are recommended.

Hello, I'm new to this in my long life in the U.S. I'd like to discuss this with you. I am an artist and have income from both W-2 and freelance and hired an American accountant who was referred to me by a friend and filed for 2019 last year.

I never met the accountant in person, but all online and over the phone, and in March he gave me a copy of the taxreturn2019 that I should have paid out, so of course I thought it was e-filed （ I didn't sign the form, but I thought I had a digital signature. I didn't sign the document, but I thought it was digitally signed ） There was no confirmation about it.
By the way, I don't think there will be a penalty since there is no money to pay to Federal and the state, just a refound.

Last September, when I did an IRS status search, I couldn't find my status, so I contacted my accountant in a panic, but he kept making excuses that I would get it tomorrow, and I had already heard during this pandemic that my TAX was due from April to July and then to October.
I believed him as it was.
However, late last year he told me that he had lost my file. I asked him if he wanted me to send him a copy of my March file ？ but he didn't reply.
I've been waiting since March, with about 10 or more "I'll send it tomorrow" messages, but recently I texted whatsup and got a response.

"I love having oriental women as clients. They are all very patient and wait for me. I wish they would wait a little longer..." I replied and of course I countered....

So, I would like to ask for the wisdom of anyone who knows anything about this, but I would like to mail the letter dated March 6 from him directly to the IRS, but I don't have his signature.　I have already requested a digital signature, but of course I have not received a response.
It is illegal to create a signature without permission, isn't it? （ I can create a digital signature ）

Or I can charge him a refound and hire another accountant or file it myself with tarbotax.

And one more question, is it possible to file my 2020 TAXRETURN first if I didn't file last year ？ I want to get this issue out of the way before I get busy with my 2020 TAXRETURN.

Please do let me know what you think.
