First of all, my condolences.

I'm sure it can be done quickly anywhere, but it seems that some places give immediate results while others don't.

I'm sorry I don't have any information, but it should not be so crowded now, so I suggest you just check if the results are immediate and go there first.

in a form that can be used in Japan. Don't forget to ask them if they can make a document for you in a form that can be used in Japan.

I'm glad to hear that self-isolation is gone and public transportation is now available within 24 hours of arrival, so no more lost time.

If there is a wedding, funeral, or visit to a seriously ill family member in Japan, or if Kyorokyoro, a Japanese citizen, is returning to Japan even for a short period of time, the U.S. citizen's child can enter Japan with the consulate's permission. As #2 said, you should consult with the consulate in your area. I am not sure up to what age they are treated as "children".

First of all, what about your Japanese nationality ? If it has not been revoked by you, you can resume your resident registration.
Then you will be charged resident tax and social insurance premiums. Therefore, we recommend that you use a relative or other person's home as your address. Resident tax is zero if you have no income in Japan. Social security will pay the minimum amount, but it is not a large amount.
Do you want an account in Japan that badly? ? Also, the US will ask you every year on your TAX application if you have an account overseas.
If you want to withdraw money from your US account in Japan, you can do so at a post office ATM or 711.

Foreigners cannot open an account without proof of residence.

Last week we had a contractor come and remove a large honey bee hive from a fruit tree

but there is a possibility that they may nest in the same place again

so we need to monitor them on a daily basis

If you have any bee spray that is safe for fruit trees, please let us know

Bees often build a huge pineapple-like nest on the top of a garden tree.

These are not honeycombs, but swarms, in which the queen bee temporarily stays on a tree in another part of the garden when she moves out of the previous hive for some reason, and nothing remains afterwards. Sometimes they are built on trees in our backyard. When this is done, countless bees fly around in swarms as large as 10 meters with a loud buzzing sound, which can be frightening. But after a few hours, the whole swarm flies away. The bees can be exterminated by a contractor, but those who are involved in agriculture beg us not to kill them. The reason for this is that bees fly from flower to flower of vegetables and fruits, transferring pollen. Without this action, the flowers would not be fertilized and therefore would not produce fruit. And so, the fruits and vegetables disappear from the market where we go to buy them.

In reality, the bee population has been slowly declining over the past few decades. The reality is that the bee population has been slowly declining over the past few decades, and farmers are becoming increasingly sad. So, if you see a swarm of bees like that in the future, stay away from it and wait for the swarm to disappear. Once those countless bees are gone, there is nothing left. The honeycomb nests are real nests that need to be removed.

You're talking nonsense again
you read the vendor because it's a nest ?
you just want to expose your stupid knowledge
swarm ? it's not a nest

fruit pollen is a favorite of honey so it's almost impossible
if you do it if you do, you'll have to spray wood vinegar diluted with water regularly
or put a box to keep them and let them nest in it

by the way, were they really honey bees ?
you don't hear many honey bees nesting in trees

What bees build on tree branches is not called a nest, but a swarm. It is like this youtube.

https://youtu.be/Q_VGwZTPoGk

As you know, all worker bees are "male" bees that go from flower to flower to suck nectar from flowers and plants. The queen bee usually stands tall in the hive, but as her daughters grow older and develop the queen's talents, they threaten the mother's hive, leading to a battle for control of the hive.

So when the mother is no longer satisfied with the nest, she begins to move. So when the mother is not satisfied with the nest, she begins her migration, which is followed by 50,000 worker bees, which sometimes stop in the trees of houses, and when the 50,000 worker bees surround the queen like crazy, a swarm like that is formed. This is only temporary, but the swarm is surrounded by countless bees buzzing around it at a range of 10 meters or more and flying so violently that we humans are afraid to go near it. The swarm will disappear after an hour or so.

However, when this happens on my property, people see the swarm and think the bees have built a hive and call an exterminator. When it happened in my backyard, I seriously looked online for an exterminator.

If you have a BA or BS in any discipline and the company that wants to hire you can sponsor you, I think an H1B is possible. The problem is the company.
Also, there must be a reason why it must be you. It is the same whether it is economics or sociology. There must be a reason why they want to hire you and not an American.
For example, it is important to be able to speak Japanese because we are planning to expand into Japan, or it does not matter what department you are actually in.
Ultimately, it comes down to why they want to hire you.

First of all, where is your place of residence? If you have an address in Illinois, and that is where you will be living, then you can stay there. If it is less expensive to do so.
However, there is a definition of residence. If you reside in California, your car should be registered in California.
The easiest answer is what state is your TAX ? If I remember correctly, if you reside in California for more than 3 consecutive months, you should register in California.
The most important thing is whether you have an address in Illinois. Also, do you want to apply for TAX with that as your place of residence?
A common case is people who have homes in both NY and Florida. They make good use of it there.
