Does anyone know what the tax amount would be in the US ( Hawaii ) if I have a profit of about 1 million per year in my Japanese FX account ?
( I think it is about 20% in Japan... )

My B-2 visa is about to expire, do I have to apply for it when I am in Japan ?
or can I do it in Honolulu ? I overstayed once in the past
and I can't use Esta so I got a B-2 visa. In this case, do I have to start all over again
or can I get an extension online ??

Yesterday, January 23, around 3:00 p.m., I noticed that my cell phone was missing from the Ala Moana condo where I am staying.

I went shopping and had lunch in Waikiki that day, so it might have been in Waikiki that I dropped it.

I am deaf so if I dropped it I would not hear a sound. I thought I put it in my bag.

I think it was a gold cover and the body was silver. Please message me if you know anything about it.

I have not received a 1099-G for 2021.

I have not yet received my 2021 unemployment insurance income, 1099-G, for my 2021 tax return, have you received yours?
I received unemployment insurance for 2021 from January to September.
I live in a condo where mail is often misdirected and mail for other rooms in the same condo is often delivered by mistake, and if it has already been sent, I feel that my 1099-G may have been misdirected to another room.
If I wait a little longer and don't receive it, can I do one of the following ?
① call the unemployment insurance office and request a reissue
② log into my unemployment insurance account and output it myself
② if I can ?
Also, is there any other way other than ① ② ??

Hello.
I am currently reading in the news that PCR test kits are in short supply,
I am planning to take the test on the same day at Haneda Airport, ( the airport I leave for Hawaii is Narita, )
I am worried about the availability of the test kit.
I contacted Kinoshita Group last week, but it seems that I will not receive a reply.
Please let me know if you know anything.
Thank you very much !

I would like to file a tax return from Japan if possible, but we currently do not have a local address and have not received the necessary documents such as a w-2.
Is it possible to issue each of these as data on the web, etc. ?
Anyone who knows what to do, please advise. I would appreciate your advice.

In response to your question.

W - With regard to IRS forms, including 2, you can file without the original form by contacting the company that will be in effect and having them send you a copy
. For

filings, all IRS forms are required, so if you filed a
1099 - INT form with your bank last year, as well as a
W - 2 form, please contact your company or bank and ask for a copy.
and ask for a copy.

These forms are IRS forms, which are issued to U.S. residents to report income earned from work
to the IRS, and the filer's form
is sent to the IRS to match the form sent to the IRS. Since the
information on the form is already recorded in the IRS database, the basic process is to match the amount
reported with the IRS data, so the
filer should contact the company that will be issuing the form and send a copy of the form to the IRS.
We think they should send us a copy of the form and ask us to get it for them.

Since the declaration is done by basic e-file, the original form is not necessary.

In addition, if you have any income in Japan, you need to include it in your U.S. tax return
and file it.

Also, if you have more than $10,000 in a Japanese bank account, you must file an FBAR
report ( ) in addition to your income tax return.

Permanent residents who are in Japan on a re-entry permit are required to report
to the US.

Tax man,
Thank you for your answer.
You mentioned that we need to have a copy of the form sent to us, but we have bank and stock accounts in Hawaii, etc. Is it possible to contact each of those companies and have them send us a copy of the form as data on the Internet, for example? I would like to be able to make an accurate declaration from Japan by phone or e-mail rather than going to the bank.
Thank you very much.

  • Report

Bank forms ( 1099 - INT ) and stock forms ( 1099-B ) are
required by Federal regulations to be sent to the filer.
Even if the address changes to Japan, the bank or stock company will be punished if they do not send the form
So it is not something you can ask them to send, but of course the bank etc. must send the form
So of course, by informing them of your new address, they will send it to you. So, of course, you can contact us with your new address, and we will send it to you.

You can download the stock company forms by entering your account number and password
from the site.

Again, it is common for customers to change their address ( moving from Hawaii to New York or California

.

Resigning and moving
to another state, especially from a company where you worked, is not unusual.

Therefore, please understand that it is not a
request to contact your former employer ( by letter or phone ) in any way
to have forms sent to your new address, as everyone usually does. Please understand that it is not like we are asking you to do this.

Two of my clients returned temporarily to Japan last year and filed their tax returns from Japan,
I have also prepared returns for people who have broken their permanent residence status and returned to Japan,
all from a Japanese address and also e-filed. All the tax returns are filed from a Japanese address, and since they are e-files, there is no need to send
the tax returns by mail from Japan.

Therefore, the form itself is not necessary, but a copy of the form is sufficient
to file the return.

Tax man, thank you very much for your frequent replies.
Is it possible to send a copy of the form to each company even if my current address is only in Japan or the destination address is my current address in Japan, if I can contact each company ?
I have never heard that the company has to send the form.
Also, I have been sending checks to Federal ? and the State of Hawaii, but if I have a bank account in the US, can I contact the IRS and make a direct debit or return there without sending checks? ?
Thank you very much.

About the 1099-K form on the Etsy for sale site

Question

I set up my own store on the sales site Etsy in FY2021 and had sales of about $5000.
I had registered my tax information with Etsy to receive a 1099-K if I met the criteria, but when I looked at my account today in February, it said "You are not eligible for a 1099-K this year.
I thought that in the state of Hawaii, you have to have $600 or more to meet the criteria, but I guess I was mistaken.
If a 1099 is not eligible for a 1099, is it sufficient to provide the sales amount and expenses when requesting a tax return from the Accounting Service?

By the way, I have a GE license because I need it for another job and I have already paid my 2021 GETax for Etsy sales.

I have no idea about taxes, so I am asking here because I don't want to be missing any documents that I need to have in order before my tax return.
If anyone has the same condition or knows more about it, I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice.
Thank you in advance.

Is the third vaccination mandate before coming to the US ??

Question

Hello.
I am going to Hawaii in late February to see him.
It was reported on the news the other day that " he will need a third vaccination before going to Hawaii ・ those who have already made reservations do not have to ".
I have not applied for ESTA yet because my flight was cancelled several times.
Last week another flight to Hawaii → Japan was cancelled, so I will book another flight
The days of the week for flights are very limited, so the length of my stay has been forced to change as well.
At this point, only the flight to Japan is booked, but not the return flight and ESTA
Objectively, I am not booked = Do I have to interpret that the third vaccine is required ?
My last adverse reaction was severe. I am not planning to get the vaccination because it did not heal for a long time and my departure date is soon.
In this case, I would like to know if the vaccination is mandate or not.
If anyone knows more about this, please comment.
