I have just married my American boyfriend, and now that we have our marriage certificate, we are going through the green card process.

So here is my question. I am on an F-1 VISA and have 12 college credits. I am going to be busy with VISA procedures, etc. I would like to destroy my I-20 and switch my status to I-797C if possible. The international office at the college does not recommend destroying the I-20 until I receive my green card. But I can switch to I-797C and stay. I was told.

Personally, I would like to change my status before I submit my green card paperwork and continue to take classes at the college for 12 credits or less.

Is there any risk there ?

I would appreciate it if you have had a similar experience or have any information.

I am thinking of applying for citizenship. I am aware that it is possible to obtain a long-term visa for a Japanese child as a former Japanese national when the child needs to stay in Japan for more than 3 months after renouncing Japanese citizenship, but I would like to know if anyone has any experience on how to give the spouse of a foreign national the right to stay in Japan as well. ?
Thank you very much.

Finally, Camara ・ President Harris is born

Sadly it was decided without any big surprise
Biden said he would only do 4 years, but I don't know what anyone who voted for Biden at that point was thinking. What do they think they can do in just 4 years
I doubt they can last a year. It is almost certain that the Democrats wanted to move Harris up to President from the beginning. Then the Vice President would be Nancy Pelosi, who would be moved up. Thanks to the Republicans who defected, both the Senate and the House are now Democrats, so they can do whatever they want.
Analysts say the first thing that will happen is that gas prices will go up and middle class unemployment will increase
There is no budget to reinstate Obamacare, so it is obvious that the fallout will be cuts to education, border security, and police
Less police money means more crime, and the BLM still has no solution.
The election has revealed a lot of politicians who are in China's pocket and will do China's bidding
Illegal immigration is welcome under this administration, and as a result, drug smuggling is not being controlled, so there is no reason to believe it will decrease.
He was talking big, but I don't think Corona has any countermeasures either, so I guess I'll put a curfew on all citizens ?
It means that a weak America has been born. It's like the current Japanese administration.
Penalize the anti-Trumps if they are worse than the past 4 years. I want only them to raise taxes.

Is it legal to earn Japanese yen remotely ? F1 visa.

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.

When you have a residence in the US, you are a resident of the US and a non-resident in Japan, which is illegal unless you have moved your residence abroad
Whether you are a student or an expatriate, the IRS does not care.
If your address is in the U.S., at least the U.S. IRS will interpret it that way
And if the Japanese company that pays your salary does not pay you well, there will be problems with tax withholding and social insurance.

I remember a few years ago when I googled a similar question about F1 being a violation, I found a site where lawyers answer legal questions and it came up that it is a violation. The part about being in the US and working even if the work is outside of the US is what seems to be the sticking point. I'm not sure if they can actually crack down on it, but it seems like it would be a bad idea if they were to find out at some point.

# 7 is just saying that a student on F1 for more than 5 years is treated as Resident for tax purposes. I'm explaining that there is a difference between Resident and No resident to pay taxes. I'm saying that if you are a F1 and treated as a No resident, you don't have to file taxes in the US if you paid taxes in Japan.

It is not customary to leave a tip with takeout

  • Tip問題-傍観しません
  • 2020/12/13 11:21

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."
( For cafes or takeaway restaurants that do not offer table service, you are not typically 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."
