Hi I'm going back to Japan in September and I'm applying for my daughter's US passport at the end of this month.
I was expecting to receive it in a week or so like in Japan, but when I looked at the website it says 8-11 weeks and I discovered that would not be enough time for the travel date. How long did it take you guys here to get your US passport from the time you applied for it to the time you got it?
Or do you know if there is anything I can do to get it in time?

I have a green card renewal coming up and am planning to renew it myself through the USCIS website.
I am renewing for an adult and two children.
Do I have to create a USCIS account for each child as I did for the adult?
Next I am trying to file for a child, but I don't see where I can file for a child from the adult account,
I am wondering if there is one account per child ?.

If anyone knows, please let me know.
Thank you.

I should have had surgery in Japan, but I have a lump on my skin.
I think what I am feeling is most likely a powder lump. I have not been here long and would like to be examined by a Japanese doctor if possible, please let me know if you know of one.

I don't know if this is an answer, but I don't think there are any Japanese dermatologists in Hawaii. If there is, I would like to know too. First, if you have a family doctor, you would have to consult with him or find a dermatologist covered by your own insurance. You could take someone you know who is bilingual as an interpreter, or maybe a Korean doctor who can also speak Japanese...there was a Korean doctor who could speak Japanese on the second floor of the building where Phuket Thai is located in Ward, although it was a cosmetic dermatology practice over 10 years ago.

We have been married for 12 years and have two children under 18.
My marriage has not been good for several years and I am now talking about divorcing my American husband. We have been to counseling but it has been difficult for us.
In Hawaii there are many divorces and affairs ・ and we are one of them !

I am a stay-at-home mom so I am wondering if I should go back to Japan or stay here for my children. I am a housewife and I am wondering if I should go back to Japan or stay here for the sake of my children.
How long does it take to get a divorce? What should I do when I go back to Japan?
Can a single person live in Hawaii on salary and child support ?

Please give me some advice !.

The level of education in Japan is high, so if your child is still in elementary school, it is not too late
and it is better to be educated in Japan.
If your child moves to the U.S. for college or in his/her 20s, English will come back to life.
One in two people are divorced nowadays.
There are not only divorced people, but also divorced people who are divorced. lol)))}

It will take a lot of horsepower until the divorce is finalized
but now is a good time to step up to the plate and do my best.
For the sake of my children and myself ! ! !

Yes, there are some divorcees !
who have a new life with a new partner. ! In Hawaii, Jun HASEGAWA also !

acts quickly towards a positive amicable divorce.

Does your husband give his consent for you to take the child back to Japan ?

It is very difficult to get 100% custody of the child, especially if you are divorcing an American. If you bring your child back to Japan without your husband's consent, it will be treated as kidnapping, so if you are taking your child back to Japan, it would be better to discuss it properly and put it in writing.

My husband has given his consent at one point. We have had several big fights in the past, so I think he assumed that I would take them back home. Divorce in the U.S. is complicated and time consuming, unlike in Japan. I have often wished that we could have a simple divorce between the parties as in Japan.

A long time ago in my case,
both Legal Custody (Legal Custody)》 and Physical Custody (Parenting Custody)》 were 100% for me.

My ex-husband agreed to return to Japan as he cannot live with the children.

But the children have the right to see their father, and
returning to Japan became a dream.
In my case, the children were only allowed to see their father 16 hours a week
so I had to send them to Hawaii during summer and winter vacations. Since it would be a total of 3 months a year, sending them during summer and winter vacations is half the father's expense, but it is not easy.

Divorce takes more power than marriage.

Good luck with your children.

I understand that Hawaii ID holders can get into Hanauma Bay and Diamond Head without reservations, but if my friend who is going with me does not, can we still get in without reservations ?
If anyone knows, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Please see if you are interested.


Trial for amendment of Article 11 of the Nationality Law
Under the current Japanese Nationality Law, a person "automatically" loses Japanese nationality if he/she voluntarily acquires the nationality of another country.
Now, plaintiffs living in Switzerland and other countries are fighting in court to amend this. I think this is an important trial for those of us living in the US.
There is a petition campaign on change.org to amend Article 11 of the Nationality Law. Currently, about 43,000 votes have been collected, but it would be great if more people would sign the petition. The next trial will be held in September. By the way, I am an individual and not a member of this association.

Free PCR inspection at Waikiki Shell to enter Japan

I was looking up the PCR test
for my return trip from Hawaii to Japan next month, and I found on the My Hawaii website
that if you are a resident of Hawaii (U.S.A.), if you paste a negative result of the free PCR test at the Waikiki Shell on your Fast Track, it will turn
green and you can enter Japan.
If this is true, then I am not sure if I can enter Japan. If this is true, it would be a great help to me as the high cost of the test, which used to be about $ 110 at the lowest, is now free.
Anyone who was able to return to Japan with this?

I received it today. The staff told me that the address on the reservation could be either a local hotel or a Japanese address, but I entered a local hotel.
When I got in line, I showed them the QR code and they asked me if I wanted an antigen or a pcr. I was surprised to find out that it cost $85 if you are a tourist, but I paid it because it was cheaper than other places. After that, I was given a kit, handed the kit to a nurse-like person, answered my date of birth verbally, and had the test done while standing up. The Korean couple in line behind us were surprised at the $85 price, but they paid it!

I returned to Japan with a negative certificate for Nomi's PCR test.
I was never asked to show the negative certificate issued by the government after arriving in Japan.

If you are going back to Japan, you only need a negative certificate from Nomi. It is possible with a screenshot.

I also had a PCR test done at Nomi and am safely on my way back home temporarily.
At Nomi, there were about 10 people in line in front of me, but I showed them the QR code and the test was done in a few minutes.
I was told that the test result would take 24 to 72 hours, but I did the test in the evening and received the email at 9:00 the next morning, so it was within 24 hours. MYSOS turned green, so I didn't paper the negative certificate because I thought I could just show it to the screener.
At the JAL check-in counter, the people showing the negative certificate form were foreigners who were connecting in Tokyo, and most Japanese people just showed the green screen of MYSOS.

#70's advice was very helpful.
I was very impatient because I could not download data on my iPhone.
I also had an incident where my wife's address became invalid and she did not receive the test results, but I called Nomi Health and told them the patient number that appears when I scan the QR code with my iPhone camera, and asked them to send it to another email address. They will then send me a pdf of the test results directly.

I'm worried about the test results I got from flea health, they don't turn green for the most part. It's always been yellow, but I hope it's ok … ?.

Sorry, I'm in a hurry and have to ask !
I tested with Nomi Health and got a test result, but it only shows "test name:C19. Result:negative"
The test Result:negative" and there is no description of the test method, etc.
Is it possible to take a screencap of just this and paste it into MySOS?
Or can I print out a negative certificate from somewhere else?
It would be helpful if you could tell me !.
