What is the minimum time required for a divorce without children ？
If I return to Japan without permission, can I get a divorce if the other party signs the papers?

In my case, it took a year.

Divorce time, age, assets, years married, lawyer
all are different, so I don't think it would be helpful to ask here.

You should ask your current lawyer, who follows the current law.

Most lawyers are free the first time, so you should get an estimate.

It's harder than getting married, but by all means, good luck.

I know this is not very helpful because as Tina said, everyone's situation is different, but
in my case, the divorce was finalized about a month after the other party agreed to the divorce, there was no division of property and no children, and I prepared the papers myself and brought them to the court and filed them.

It is wonderful that you were able to get it done in about a month if you did it yourself ！
It was fast and you saved money on a lawyer.

I didn't have any friends who did it by themselves at that time, so I thought I had to use a lawyer
.

Some lawyers ask for thousands of dollars upfront, so
be careful.

I hear that there are not enough Japanese yen in Hawaii,
If you have already exchanged money in Hawaii, where did you do it ？

Also, have you exchanged money in Japan ？


Thank you very much. Also, is there anyone who can exchange money in Japan?

I arrived at Haneda Airport today and cashed in at Mizuho Bank in the arrival lobby. Today's exchange rate was 136 yen to the dollar, but the exchange rate was 132 yen to the dollar. I think it is not bad.

I use Wise all the time. The commissions are low and the rates are almost always the same as the market. You can check the commission rates from the site without creating an account. If you have a Japanese bank account, it is worth a try.

Dear Koji
I have no experience sending money to Japan yet. I am planning to send money soon, so I would be very happy if you could give me some more information. When I create an account （ and send money ）, do I need my SSN ？ and can I use a family member's name on the Japanese bank account ？?

I don't remember if I used my SSN or not when I opened my Wise account a long time ago, but
according to the following, it's a photo ID.
If you ask me, I remember using my passport or Hawaiian driver's license.

I have never wired money to a family member's account myself, but
according to the following and others According to the following and others, it seems to be possible.
Basically, if you know the bank name, account number, and name of the recipient, you can do it.

State ID, I recently took it too.
You can get it without an appointment. But be prepared to wait.
I heard from someone when I was waiting in line that the best time to get an ID is first thing in the morning on weekdays, or one or two hours before the opening hours.

At 2:00 or 3:00 on weekdays, available times for the next day are released and you can make a reservation. The reservation fills up as soon as it is released, so try to open the website at exactly the right time.

If you have extra JAL frequent flyer miles

I almost never use JAL, but
I traveled to Japan with JAL this month and my mileage has reached 11,000 miles.
I was a little short of the $ 100 gift card from Amazon.com, which requires 12,000 miles to redeem, when I
found the following offer.
https://www.jal.co.jp/jalmile/use/partner/alamoanacenter/

Amex gift card issued by Ala Moana Center, 10,000 miles for $ 100.
I think this campaign is mainly targeted at visitors from Japan, but
Hawaii residents may find this redemption a good deal.
Apply by 7/31.

I received a gift card.


The receptionist is located behind the stage at Ala Moana Shopping Center.
When I went in, I just had to show my email and ID like oh, JAL campaign.

JAL's website says it is for use within Ala Moana, but in fact they said it is fine outside of Ala Moana at any place where Amex is accepted, and it can also be used online.

Combined with the exchange ratio and ease of use, I think this is a great exchange.

It is explained at the reception desk that only the applicant will receive the application.
There should be no mailing.
Therefore, I think that the reason for this is to encourage people who live in Japan to come to Hawaii
to receive the card on their trip.
On the other hand, the exchange ratio for Hawaiian residents is better than that of Japanese residents. On the contrary, the conditions are good for Hawaii residents.

I took a PCR test at Nomi health 2 days before leaving Japan.
I received the results at 8:30 the next day and attached the test results to Mysos. 4 hours later I received an error message saying that I could not enter the country with this test. I checked the test results and found that it was an antigen test. I hurriedly went to Wellness4Hawaii, the fastest testing company in the world, and took the PCR test again.
They were very kind and helpful.
