I don't have permanent residency, but my Hawaii driver's license is expiring next month.
Are these 4 items sufficient? I can't understand very, very much online.
I have real estate in Hawaii and I am licensed in Hawaii. I was able to book the appointment online, but if they say I need more paperwork
I don't have time, I'm going home next month. I have a starred ID and it was difficult to get it. I don't want a starred ID
I am over 70 years old and this will be my last renewal.
Please let me know.

Nice to meet you
I am a mom of a 1 year old girl.
I'm starting to get nervous because people around me are starting to look for preschools for 3 year olds and putting their names on the wait list.
I've started researching and think that Cole Academy downtown looks like a good preschool, but I was wondering if anyone who has attended or graduated from the school can tell me about the school, the education, and if any of the students have gone on to apply to Punahou or Iolani after graduation. I am also interested in Queen Emma, but it is listed as full time 7:00-5:00, so I wonder if it is possible to pick her up around 3:00 or something. Please let me know if you have any information.
Thank you.

Please let me know if you have married a US citizen while in the US and have applied for a green card.

① Time from application to acquisition.
② Time from application to work permit
③ Time from application to entry permit
⓸Actually, those who have used an entry permit to return temporarily while applying for a green card and were able to enter the US safely or not? .

You do not have to answer all of them.
Thank you very much.

Brought back from Japan

Problem / Need advice

I live in Japan and would like to bring back food from Japan.
I think there are restrictions on meat
so I would like to bring back sashimi or something that I can eat right away.
I have never done this before, so I would appreciate it if someone with experience could tell me how they did it.
Do you freeze it or
is it hand luggage, etc.? I will bring frozen, but
regular too, etc.
I have had my luggage confiscated many times
and I would like to avoid confiscation.
Thank you very much.

Mr. Kasumigusa

I think chicken and beef related were not allowed in the extract. Eggs are also no good.
Once, I brought home a small variety pack of furikake (sprinkled seasoning), but
there was a noritama in it, and they confiscated it because "this one is no good.

It's gotten very strict. When I see the word "egg" or "meat extract" I pull it out. The other day I put money on my card from Japan and they took that out too. In that case, I heard the claim is made in Japan.

Mr. Olive Oil
I am sorry to hear that your money was taken out. But I think
it is impossible to make a complaint in Japan ? because in Japan, you are not allowed to send cash, etc. by regular mail
. In Japan, you are not supposed to send cash by regular mail .
I don't think you will be compensated
unless you send a cashier's check or an international money order or something like that.

#6 As Halo wrote, meat extract is also subject to confiscation.

I did not know that meat extract was not allowed and did not fill out the customs declaration form properly, but
my luggage was checked at the customs and confiscated.
Since then, I have been subjected to luggage checks when entering the U.S. for quite a while.
Apparently my record was flagged, and the immigration officer went to the trouble of closing the booth and attending me to customs.
Please be aware that the luggage check is a hassle every time.

By the way, just the other day, I entered Honolulu from Japan with a green card.
The immigration officer asked me a simple question about what food I brought back ? and what was in it ?,
but no customs declaration form was submitted. I had no customs form to file. The same thing happened in June of the previous year.
I was not stopped at customs, so I just walked through.
I wonder if this is a temporary measure ~ ?

Koji, have you taken TSA pre-check or something ?
I hear it's a lot more through than you might think with that. No troublesome security checks
either. ? ? I thought it was OK, but it seems to be easy.
I also heard that global entry is similar, but
I haven't heard anything for sure, so I'm not sure.

Once the luggage is opened and there is something confiscated, it used to be
"Come here, come here~" for the next 10 years. In the case of my Noritama, the customs officer was like
"You know, some people bring this stuff without knowing it"
and I was like "Oh ? this was not allowed ? ?", so
I was surprised and it was only at that time. I think that's what it is. Even if it wasn't a big deal,
if the person was mean or had a bad temper, it would be recorded.

My current rice cooker from Cosco ( Zojirushi ) does not keep the rice warm at all and the rice on the cooker starts to get hard when kept in the safe.

I am now thinking of buying a better Japanese quality rice cooker.

What brand and model do you recommend?

noise

My family moved in last month and
we are having trouble with noise from the room next door.
Nothing happened for a few days, but
there is a heavy bass of music in the morning,
sometimes it echoes until midnight
and I cannot sleep,
I talked to the room owner, but he told me to tell
security when it is noisy,
and he went to the room. They went to my room, but it didn't change at all and I don't care at all,
I was told that I should move out, but I just moved out last month and I still have a contract.
If anyone has the same situation or solution
please advise.
