・ You are a small person to say that what you don't know is a lie or a delusion.

Even in first class, until a few years ago, there were seats that were only slanted in some aircraft, but now they are completely full-flat and semi-private except for takeoff and landing, which is very comfortable. I hope one day I can get on it instead of fantasizing about it.

When I fly internationally, I go to the hotel as soon as I arrive, check my luggage first, and in some cases take a short rest, but that's something ?.

Since I was young, I started my own business, earned money, and increased my wealth while investing. I wanted to have a family, so I had a child and thought it would be good to be a full-time housewife since I had wealth, so I saved my work, but I felt that only raising children and doing housework was not enough, so I hired a nanny and went back to work. I feel that this is the best fit for me because I am fulfilled with my work, childcare, and private life. I don't need to compare myself with others as long as it suits me.

Expatriate wives work locally

Question

I am an expat wife living in LA as an accompanying family member of an expatriate (E2 visa).

I am considering working there, but I am in the process of negotiating with my husband's company to get permission.

The company is concerned that since they are responsible for the expatriate's taxes, there will be complications with tax laws and
there is no precedent for this and it will be extra work for the HR department.

How exactly would there be complications in tax law if an expatriate wife works?
(tax returns are desired to be combined for husband and wife)

Also, how will the HR department's workload increase?

I am in my 20s and have no children, so I want to continue my career,
I want to earn money to send back to my parents living in Japan
are my reasons for wanting to work locally.

However, since I am negotiating with my husband's company, I would like to gather as much information as possible and negotiate carefully.

If you have had similar experiences or have any information, please share.

You are absolutely right and the company will not allow it.

The expatriates must be earning enough for their entire families to live here, and I think the law does not allow them to earn income from other sources.

I understand that you want to "do something" because your husband comes home late every day, but regular work would not be possible. How about doing some volunteer work? How about helping out at a local senior center for elderly people who only speak English? Women in their prime would be very welcome. There is some physical labor such as pushing wheelchairs, but if you can speak, read, and write English, there should be some simple office work as well.

I heard that E2S visa holders don't need to apply for a work permit anymore, so they can work as they like
If that's the case, I don't think you need to get permission from your husband's company In US, you can ask a tax accountant to file your tax return by yourself with the documents you get from your company, so your wife's company won't be bothered by your wife's income.
If the company is going to file the tax return for the husband, the wife can do it with her own income, not with the husband's. ?
Either way, I don't think it would be a problem for the husband's company
I heard this from a friend.
Visa related issues change frequently, so it would be better to ask the lawyer who did your husband's visa
As usual, the germs are always talking about old shit as if it's common knowledge, and it pisses me off. Don't rely on this old man's story.

I have a question regarding the Japanese immigration office.
My husband is a foreign national and we are going to Japan together. Is it possible for me, a Japanese citizen, to stand in line with him in the foreigner-only lane? One reason is that I will have to wait for him if I leave early, and the other reason is that this is the first time for me to purchase a JR Pass, and I need to get a stamp or sticker for a short stay at the port of entry. I don't know how to get it in the Japanese-only lane.
Can someone please tell me how to get it in the Japanese-only lane?

Since I am going to Japan to use it myself,
can't I just look it up on the internet
and be satisfied with it, rather than leaving it to others to ask about rail passes, etc. on their own?

If a travel agency sells rail passes, you can ask them for more information.

If you are a foreigner, you can enter and leave Japan,
even if you have a Green Card, your passport is in Japan, so you can leave and return.

I temporarily returned to Japan in October with a rail pass exchange ticket, but I had no idea about the stamp.
At Haneda station, there was a part where people were divided into those who needed a stamp and those who did not, but I went through the one who did not and exchanged it for a rail pass at Shinagawa station two days later without any problem.
It may be that the check for the stamp was accidentally left out, but why don't you check with the traveler or JR?
By the way, ( it was empty at that time ) in early October, so it wouldn't have made much difference in time if you got in line to get stamps.

Once you arrive in Japan and get off the plane, you will be fine in Japanese. If your husband can't speak Japanese, you just need an interpreter and you'll be fine.

If you are worrying about this kind of thing, you will just think you can't do anything yourself.

Things are a little different in Corona, so ask at a travel agency that handles rail passes.

Ototto, you're decent sometimes.
Lyft and Uber drivers can do it too. Since there is no one to lean on, kamaboko, all your replies are gone.

With uber eats and doordash, it's just hello, thank you.
In some cases, it's easier to just leave it at the door and the delivery is complete.

Lyft and Uber drivers have to make small talk
If they are not friendly, they will be rated as bad and not able to do it.
