I have a cousin with a 5 year old boy who will be here next year around GW. Of course, summer school hasn't started and he will probably only be there for a week or so, but he would like the opportunity to interact with the local kids. Do you have any suggestions for activities ??

I use FB and IG to buy and sell unwanted items privately.
I get paid by Venmo or paypal, but is there a rule that says I have to file a tax return if my income is over 200,000 yen per year?

I did a quick search and found that it depends on the state, but I didn't know the amount in Hawaii.
Thank you very much.

This is my understanding, which I quickly researched because I was curious.
Anyone, please point out if my understanding is incorrect.

As a general rule, it seems that if you sell your own unused items for less than the purchase price, no tax is due.

When exchanging money via Paypal, Sending to a friend ( without protection ) is not taxed. Paying for an item or service ( with protection ) may be taxable
https://www.paypal.com/us/cshelp/article/whats-the- difference-between-friends-and-family-or-goods-and-services-payments-help277

Paying for an item or service if more than the specified amount is transferred, Paypal has to report it to the IRS as a 1099-K.
https://www.paypal.com/us/cshelp/article/will-paypal-report-my-sales-to-the-irs-help543

Furthermore, here is a 1099-K for a private sale. What to do ? but ultimately you should consult a tax professional.
Will the updated 1099-K threshold change apply if I sell personal property, like a couch or an item at a garage sale, if it was sold for less than its Will I be issued a Form 1099-K?
Form 1099-K is an IRS informational tax form that is used to report goods and services payments received by a business or individual in the While payment service providers, like PayPal and Venmo, are required by the IRS to send customers a Form-1099K if they meet the threshold amount ($ 5,000 for calendar year 2024, $ 2,500 for calendar year 2025, or $ 600 for calendar years 2026 and beyond^) PayPal is required to report the total gross amount of payments received for goods and services.

We encourage customers to speak with a tax professional when reviewing their 1099-Ks to determine whether specific amounts are classified as taxable income. I think this will not be a problem if the transaction is less than the amount, but in a few years $ it seems that 1099-Ks will be issued for transactions over 600, which could complicate the tax return process.

I don't know if #4 is the same as the questioner, but ・ ・ ・
if there is a $ 5,000+ transaction on Paypal for an item or service on 2024, the
1099-K form, Paypal will send a 1099-K to the IRS and the taxpayer.
Basically, the amount shown on the 1099-K should be reported as income on your tax return, but if you sell unused items ( and the sale price is lower than the purchase price ) you may not be eligible.
However, PayPal's comment is that you should seek the opinion of a tax accountant or other expert to determine whether or not you are eligible.

In summary, I think it would be a good idea to consult a tax accountant for more information.

This is a real site, and anyone who tells you to use it is a scammer.

Showing credit history etc. in advance is prohibited by real estate law.
So if you get a reply like this, it is definitely a scam.

In such cases, please BLOCK and ignore. It is dangerous.

I'm sure you're getting a kickback by getting me to subscribe to this service.

I said to someone else earlier, "I have a credit history
so I will provide that information." I said, "Only sites I approve

Post-divorce health insurance

For various reasons, I will not be able to work full time until the end of next year, so I am thinking that I will have to enroll myself
rather than through my workplace for a certain period of time after the divorce.
I would appreciate any information about health insurance, such as recommendations if you have purchased it yourself.

I have heard that there are Japanese-owned hospitals, but I have also seen that they are available
with insurance associated with a credit card. Is there anyone who has Japanese insurance and uses this hospital ??

If your monthly income does not exceed $1,990 per month (including tax and gratuity)
you can join HMSA Quest ! 😊

You can visit any hospital
for eye, dental and medical care but only for teeth
if you have an emergency toothache and need it pulled.
only if you have an emergency toothache and need to have it pulled
they don't charge you for doctor visits

when you apply for membership, you have to provide the office with your pay stubs for the last 3 months, but if you explain that you changed from full time to part time and no longer get insurance, you can get by with it.

You can send a copy of your paystubs, but
you should call the Quest office and inquire
first

the phone lines are always busy, so call early.
it is safer

there is no bank balance check, so don't worry

good luck!

I've never heard of renting an off-road bike in Hawaii, but
I took a tour once a long time ago.
I'll post the site.
They don't have license plates, so it's more like a fun tour...

http://dirtbikeoahu.com/

Also, I searched around and found a rental shop that has dirt bikes
that you can ride on public roads in Waikiki. I think.

It is a Kawasaki KLR650, so
it may not be what you are looking for, but
here is the site too.

How to find a rental

Housing

I am planning to move to Honolulu and
looking for a room in this real estate and room-sharing board.

I would like to rent from
a rental company in the real estate section that has a company name listed, but
I am having trouble finding one.

In the room share forum,
there is an agent who introduces
a lot of units, but
he/she changes all the names in a serial (It's not against the rules and it's fine, but I can't tell the same person
from another one.

It is not mentioned on the rental page, but
Fee and referral fee ? for taking over to the owner
$350 or $500 extra
If possible, I am looking for only those who do not need to pay the fee, I'm having trouble with the confusion.

I'm looking for a furnished place to start with, for about 6 months,
is there any other way to find it ??

Even if you find a property on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace, I think
you should be fine as long as you get a proper showing and meet the owner ? before you decide to move in.
We are on the renting side, but on the other hand, there are some suspicious prospective tenants who have not had showings and
sometimes inquire from off-island locations, such as the mainland, to decide to move in!

In Honolulu, especially in Waikiki, there are very few lenders for people who want to live in Honolulu, and there is an imbalance between the number of people who want to live in Honolulu and the number of people who rent. Therefore, the rent is going up and up.
Also, as you know, Waikiki is a hotel complex, so condominiums built in between the hotels are especially popular. Kalakaua AVE and Royal Hawaiian AVE are the center of the city, and as you move away from them, rents become a little cheaper.
