Will you participate in the Honolulu Marathon ??

This will be my 8th Honolulu Marathon, and this year's race seems to be a lot different from previous years.
Although I have entered ( for the year before last ) I am still not sure if I will participate.
I have tried to transfer to the 10k instead of the full marathon, but I am not sure if the transfer is successful.
Has anyone been able to transfer from the realbuzz registrations site?

Since September, negative proof was required for restaurant use by the unvaccinated for 60 days, but what is happening now that 60 days have passed ?
I couldn't find the answer in my research, so if anyone knows, please let me know.

Difficult Job Search in Hawaii

In my personal opinion, it was very difficult to find a job again as a corona. My unemployment insurance was cut off in September 2021 and I sent my resume to about 100 companies and received no response at all. It is not that my education or work history is bad. I am a GC holder who can legally work.

Personal advice. I applied with my eyes on the mainland, got an offer and moved to the mainland. Now I am on the mainland and I really think it was a good choice. If you push and it doesn't work, you have to pull. There are plenty of jobs on the mainland. Or return to Japan, for example. Hawaii is in a difficult situation right now. There are almost no bilingual jobs, especially in Japanese.

Golf swing practice

Good evening.
My husband has recently started playing golf and we go to the golf course every day.

We don't have a yard or any other space, so he wants to practice swinging in the park.
I think there are many places where golf is prohibited in Japanese parks, but I couldn't find anything about it in Hawaii's park rules.
Even though there is no mention of it, I have never seen anyone swinging in the park, so I was worried and posted this.

Thanks in advance.

Please use this topic for procedures, questions, and information exchange regarding the PEUC program after March 14 or April 11.

This is the first time for this PEUC September extension program, so there are no past cases or examples. In other words, no one can answer exactly unless there is a top hitter.

Therefore, the question style is not "What should I do ?? ? Is there anyone else in the same situation ??

Please do not share information by word of mouth from colleagues or friends as this is not accurate. Also, if you are sharing a media news article, please be sure to include a link to the article.

Dear sanset

Thank you for all your help.
PEUC2 is ending with 2 weeks left, but when I logged into my UI account today, I found that 25 weeks had been added to my balance, which was 2 weeks left until last week. 25 weeks would be up to the first week of September.
However, the BENEFIT YEAR ENDS are still this month.
We will let you know if the BENEFIT YEAR ENDS will be updated as well, and we will let you know here if there is any progress.

Mahalo,

Thanks for sharing.

According to UI Director Anne in the recent Honolulu Star Advertiser Facebook video interview, it means "eligible for PEUC September extension" when the new balance is automatically added until September.

If the Benefit Year End expiration date is not automatically extended more than a week after the Benefit Year End expires, contact the call center and they will fix the system. So, you should wait and see how it goes for one week after the Benefit Year End expiration.

Since the September extension was automatically added, I think it is almost safe.


Ladies and gentlemen,

Anne says that she has already finished adding the balance for the September extension. If you do not see the new balance added, please check your email ( ) including your spam folder.

If the September extension has not been automatically added to your balance and you have not even received an email, please contact the call center.

[PEUC Program]

The Unemployment Insurance Help Team has contacted me to share ( 1 ) through ( 8 ). Some of this is duplicated from what I shared recently.

The following explanation is for the PEUC program; it is unclear at this time if the same rules will apply to original UI who have been receiving the program for nearly a year for shorter hours or other reasons.

( 1 ) If the difference between the "current WBA" and the "WBA on the second Initial Application" is $25 or more, you can choose to maintain your current WBA. → For example, if the current WBA is $500 and the WBA on the 2nd Application is $480, the difference will be $20 and you will be "eligible for 2nd Application".

( 2 ) If you receive an email around the time the Benefit Year End expires, please follow the guidance in the email. Don't forget to check your spam folder as well.

( 3 ) If a new balance for the September extension is automatically added, it means that the PEUC September extension has been extended. → That does not necessarily mean that the Benefit Year End deadline will be extended at the same time. Please read ( 4 ) , ( 5 ) , ( 6 ) below for more information.

( 4 ) If your Benefit Year End expires earlier than March 14, please "Check Your Email" or "Check the UI System to see if your Benefit Year End expiration date was automatically extended. Please do so.

( 5 ) If Benefit Year End expires after March 14, please "Check Email" or "Check UI System to see if Benefit Year End expired automatically extended".

( 6 ) If the Benefit Year End expiration date is automatically extended, it will be extended for one quarter, which is three months. At the end of the first quarter, the UI office will again review the account and decide whether to "automatically extend the Benefit Year End for another three months" or "instruct the applicant to submit a second Initial Application".

( 7 ) If your Benefit Year End has not been automatically extended and you have not received an email even though you have newly added the balance for the September extension, do not rush to contact the call center. If your Benefit Year End has not been automatically extended and you have not received an email, please do not contact the call center.

( 8 ) If you have no PEUC balance and no new balance has been added and you have not even received an email, please contact the call center.

At first glance, this may seem like a harrowing experience every 3 months, but as mentioned in ( 1 ) the "$25 difference rule" makes it unlikely that you will have a troubling development where your WBA is less than half.

However, as you all know, there have been many glitches in the UI system in the past, and you should keep an eye on the UI system yourself to see if you are caught in a glitch. If there is a possibility of a glitch, please contact the call center and ask them to fix the system.

( 1 ) to ( 8 ) were announced by Anne, the UI director, in the interview video and summarized by the unemployment insurance help team. Those with questions should contact the call center.

p.s.
If you are new to this topic,
please refrain from asking me questions in the topic or by email, and

Question for those who have immigrated outside of the U.S.

Problem / Need advice

My husband has retired and we would like to move to Japan or somewhere in Asia.
I have no relatives in the US that I can rely on.

My question is,
If I receive a letter from the US government or an insurance company saying that I am moving to a foreign country (including Japan),
do you know of any service that would notify me that I am moving to a foreign country ?

I am thinking of renting my home. I would like to rent out my home.
I don't think a real estate agent will do it or anything.

I've seen many people on Youtube and the internet explaining where they are moving to, but I haven't seen any versions of people leaving the U.S..

Thank you very much.
