I am a student entering the country on a student visa.
Please excuse my question.
I have sold some reference books through book scouter.
A few weeks later, I received a check and received the money.
I was wondering, is it illegal for me to sell my unwanted books through book scouter companies or flea market apps if I have a visa ?
The total price of the books I sold was about $ 45.
I would like to know if it is illegal to sell something that I don't need.
Thank you very much.

sends you a TAX form from a place called book scouter saying he paid you, it could get complicated
If it doesn't come, just ignore it, but

Rental bathroom light cracked and injured.

Question

We currently live in a rented apartment.
Tonight, my daughter and husband were in the bathtub and while playing with a water gun, water hit the ceiling and a light that was installed directly above them broke and fell. Fortunately my daughter was not hurt, although she was hit on the arm, but my husband was injured in three places.
I should have been more careful …, but I was also angry that they didn't put a plastic cover on the light right above the bathtub where steam and water splashed ?. When I was a child, I used to play with water splashing on the ceiling, so I think there are inadequate safety measures in a place where people are naked and unprotected ? but I wonder if this is a Japanese feeling ?
Tomorrow, I'm going to tell the manager in a strong voice. I'm going to tell the manager tomorrow, but I'm assuming that there is no such thing as "water guns in the bathroom are taboo in America". ?
I have lived in the U.S. for only a short time, so I don't understand the common sense here. I am looking forward to your opinion.

If the incandescent bulb, which is electrified, is directly exposed to cold water, it might break. If it were installed over a bathtub, a waterproof cover would be mandatory. If the cover that should be there was not there for some reason, I think the landlord would be responsible.

Dual nationals Temporary return with corona disaster

If anyone has a dual nationality who has recently returned to Japan, please let me know.
Until now ( before Corona ) I did the following.

To purchase tickets, enter US passport information as an American
Show US passport at ticket counter ( Show Japanese passport if asked )
To enter Japan, show Japanese passport
< When returning to the US >
Show your US passport at the ticket counter
Show your Japanese passport when leaving Japan
Show your US passport when entering the US

But in the Corona Disaster, Americans need a visa.
So I have to do many procedures as a Japanese.
Is the following method sufficient?

To buy ticket, enter Japanese passport information as Japanese
Show Japanese passport at ticket counter
To enter Japan, show Japanese passport
< When coming back to US >
Show your US passport at the ticket counter ( ? Even though you purchased with a Japanese passport ? )
Show your Japanese passport when leaving Japan
Show your US passport when entering the US

If I am wrong, I would be very grateful if you could point it out.
I am trying to call the airline, but the waiting time is too long and I can't get through.
Thank you very much.

#62 Mr. Manikintan,

I entered and left Narita airport.

#65 Mr. Bokeh,

I can buy a ticket with my American passport; at the check-in counter at LAX, I showed my Japanese passport to get a boarding pass. ? I think the person at the check-in counter knew I was buying a ticket with an American passport, but as soon as I showed him my Japanese passport, he issued me a boarding pass. Of course, I also had a fast track, so I prepared that with my Japanese passport and showed the blue color of my application at the check-in counter. But this is not really relevant to you, is it? My apologies.

You mean they will let me issue a ticket and board the plane even if I give a different ID at the LAX counter?
I wonder how they check if the ticket buyer and the passenger are the same person ? If they are different people, there could be a terrorist attack.

How can I leave the US and come back from Japan?

If I present my American passport at the check-in counter at the airport in Japan,
it may look suspicious because there is no entry record.

And vice versa, if I present my Japanese passport and it is not stamped with a visa for entry into the U.S.,
they may ask, "You don't have a visa for entry into the U.S.

Green card holders with Japanese passport aliases

I learned from reading on the internet that many people had the same experience.
When I went back to my hometown, I was instructed by JAL to purchase a ticket with Hanako YamadaSmith as my name on the ticket and passport. I have read that it is now possible to put a space between "Yamada" and "Smith". However, when returning to the U.S., the name on my green card, Hanako Smith, is different from my name on my green card, so I get an X at the immigration kiosk, which is a hassle. I was even sent to another room. It is not that I cannot enter the country, but it is depressing every time. I would like to know about the experiences of green card holders who have recently returned to their home countries. Is the situation still the same?

Prius converter was stolen.

The following topic was no longer available for writing, so we have started it up again.
https://losangeles.vivinavi.com/eb/index/-?topic_id=_widg_1a00f2dcc0a1bbf880f8a9dda39961c4fa92112005&show=all#_widg_1a00f2dcc0a1bbf880f8a9dda39961c4fa92112005

I was just about to start the engine of a car that was parked on the street when I heard an explosion and someone nearby ran to my car and said, "The converter is I think it's been stolen. It was stolen from my car last night !."

I thought I had seen a post like this on Vivinavi... So I read the past topics.
I was too shocked... The prices are the same, but it's the holiday season and many mechanics are closed... Crying
I've done a lot of research and it seems that there is some kind of anti-theft cover, but has anyone actually worn or had one installed?
I asked because it would be very painful to have it stolen again even if I put it on newly, and I wanted to know if there is any countermeasure.
In addition, the garage only has space for two cars, and with three cars, one of them will inevitably be parked on the street.

I don't want to post the same thing over and over again, but why don't you read the responses?
You can easily read the news online too.
What if I write about actual damage that happened, but you don't read the responses and keep saying similar things?

Thefts only take a few minutes, so if there are no shields or other security measures in place, they will take it without caring if there is some noise. (Some people have been robbed even if they have security measures in place. \v463> Also, even if you have an alarm installed, you are still being victimized, and by the time you realize it, it has been stolen, and even if you rush to the scene immediately, you will most likely not get away unscathed, such as one part of the CAT has been severed.
Of course, some people have been caught, but the damage is still ongoing.
Even in quiet residential areas, areas known to be safe, there are victims.

This is not rare news, and I am surprised that people are saying this now.
Let's find out for ourselves.

The previous topic is gone, so I will start a new one and ask.

From last year to the first few months of this year, I was able to send a sealed letter from Japan to Southern CA by regular mail for 110 yen.
However, for a while after that, the arrival was terribly slow.
So I looked into it and found that using international EMS would be faster, so I did that.
Recently, however, I sent a letter to Southern CA again by international EMS, and it was untraceable until it left LA customs !
It has been missing for over a month now ! !

Meanwhile, a letter sent by regular mail to the East Coast on the other hand, the one I sent by regular mail to the east coast took about two weeks to arrive.
I was upset because it was an important document and I had to contact them several times.
It was a public document and the agency did not accept emails ….

After all, is the postal situation in Southern CA ( especially to LA jurisdiction ) bad ?
At any rate, I think regular mail to the East Coast will arrive, even if it takes longer.
I thought I would ask because I was worried that the sealed letter I sent out yesterday would arrive in two weeks.

It is common sense to use DHL,UPS for important documents
because it has always been the case that mail goes missing when using JP → US post office
avoid especially at the end of the year
give up!

I asked for important and urgent documents by UPS
I could send them urgently and they were delivered in 2 days from US to Japan. $ 100 charge but with military descount $ 85.
