I'm surrounded by people who now get unemployment insurance because they just don't have a job,
why do I have to aply for three different jobs?
and a lot of people are angry.
that there are no jobs for Japanese.
So I think, what do you mean by "for Japanese" ?
If you are not selective from the beginning, there is no lack of work.

It takes a lot of courage to challenge new things from scratch as you get older, but you will discover new things when you work.
Don't think it is impossible from the beginning.

After being completely unemployed, I would like your own experience and tips first on how you are managing to do a job you have never done before in this pandemic. That is what I would like to know the most.

Are you in your 30s ? 40s ? 50s ? 60s ? 70s+ ?
What was your last job ?
What is your current job ?
How did you find work ?
What challenged you in your current job ?
What was good about your current job ?

Inter island I have a question for those who have been to the islands since 6/15.

I am planning to go to Inter island
I was entering Travel Hawaii
This application was closed on 6/14 for Inter island.

You do not need to complete a Safe Travels application for this trip

I got the message.

I don't want to be stranded at the Honolulu airport, so I just wanted to make sure

I only needed my proof of vaccination card and driver's license

Was I safe ? ( I live in Hawaii )

The airlines phone is on hold for over an hour, so it would be very helpful if you could tell me about your experience.

Please do not hesitate to contact me.

My child, who will turn 16 in the fall, has taken and passed the written test to get his license, but due to scheduling conflicts, he is unable to attend Driving Ed at the school. ?
Also, I heard that there is a 30 hour course in the subject when taking the course at school, but does the private school offer the course as well? ?

Koby's driving school

Every Saturday, we had a few days of classroom training at the Kalihi office, followed by a few hours of on the road training.
After school, my instructor would come to the school to pick me up and
I would go straight to the road class.
I was also taught to drive a car with brakes.

I don't have a driver's license in Japan and when I moved here I felt the need for a car and am looking for a school to get a license.
(In my case, it's really from the beginning, and I had to fight with my husband to practice with his car, so I looked for a professional. Also, I want them to teach me in Japanese only at the beginning so I can Ǿ)

This school is closing in 2020. It's a shame because a friend of mine took care of them and said they were nice.

I was informed by my landlord last week that he had communicated with my caseworker and she said I would be paid for 3 months, but today my landlord contacted me again and told me that he had been told that I would be paid for 2 months.
I wonder if the caseworker will let us know how many months we will be paid ?
I am a little suspicious that maybe the landlord is cheating ? for one month.
Either way, I guess I should be thankful that I got it ?.

In my case, I applied to Catholic Charities in April and contacted the landlord after it was Complete on the website. I received my check the week after my landlord received the email from Catholic Charities.

As for the utility, there was no change in the balance for about a month after it became Complete, so I called Catholic Charities and was paid shortly after they told me they had not done it yet.

I was paid my rent up to August, but after September, do I have to apply again for the same thing from scratch ?
When can I start applying ?

Answer to your questions.

1 ) If the payment was made in Japan, is it illegal for US income tax purposes?
So even if you receive income in your Japanese account, you can transfer it to your U.S. account
and report it as self-employment income in dollars, which is not illegal under the Income Tax Law
.

For tax reporting purposes, there is no problem if you report
whether the payment was made overseas or in the US.

2 ) Status in the U.S.

If you are currently applying for a green card, you must have a valid visa to work in the U.S.
when you export. Otherwise, you will be illegally
working and earning income.

In the above case, the exporter ( in the U.S. ) will have no income tax problem if the salary is reported as
personal business income.

I am currently receiving unemployment insurance.

I'm not sure who to ask for a clear answer, but would you report the amount of sole proprietorship income you received while receiving unemployment insurance as the answer to the following question in the Weekly Certification? ?

Did you receive residual pay, commissions or other deductible income such as bonuses, or back pay? Employer ( There is some confusion as to whether you should enter income received from an employer ) with whom you have an employment relationship, or whether you should enter any form of income at all.

Please let me know if anyone can help me understand.

Mr. Sunset

called the office and inquired about the current situation.

I will share some of the content.

I explained my income to the office and they indicated that I had not been claimed for the week I explained. Furthermore, I was told that I would have to file an application if I worked as a sole proprietor.
However, I had the Confirmation Number with me, so I told them that and then explained the situation again, and they corrected it.
I am glad that I can continue my application again.

The office staff was patient and helpful.

I guess the best thing to do is to call them patiently !

Thank you Sunset for your advice.

To all UI recipients who have a sole proprietorship,

After reconfirming with the Unemployment Insurance Help Team, we would like to share the email that was sent out to UI recipients who are not eligible for the MEUC Program. According to the content of the email, UI recipients who earned over $5,000 in private business will receive $100 per week.

The application process is to apply for "Mixed Earners Unemployment Compensation" on the PUA page and submit the required documents.

The contents of the email are pasted below.

Beginning June 17, 2021, DLIR will begin accepting applications for Mixed Earners Unemployment Compensation (MEUC), which provides an MEUC is available to individuals receiving regular UI or extended benefits who also received MEUC is available to individuals receiving regular UI or extended benefits who also received at least $ 5,000 of net self-employment income in the most recent tax year ending prior to the individual's application for UI benefits. Individuals who are eligible for MEUC will receive the supplemental benefit for any week that they are paid UI benefits between December 27, 2020 and the week ending September 4, 2021. Individuals receiving PUA may not receive MEUC benefits.

No additional action will be required.

For the purposes of determining income for Medicaid and the Children's For the purposes of determining income for Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), MEUC payments are not exempt and may affect an individual's eligibility for these programs. PENALTIES:

The individual shall be subject to criminal prosecution under 18 U.S.C. § 1001. The individual shall be required to repay the MEUC benefits including a 15% monetary penalty.

I am a UI recipient, but I was also a sole proprietor, so I received an email for MEUC.
I proceeded to apply and found that
the requirement is that I must have received UI and PEUC from December 27, 2020, and
in my case, although I applied for the 1st PEUC in November after my UI ended,
I had over 7 months of UI overpayment and the 1st PEUC I have been in a situation where my first PEUC has not been working at all for more than 7 months due to UI overpayment,
so I thought that I do not fit into this eligibility period.
I think I will call you on a weekday, but
I know you may be one of the few here, but
there were some people like me who are sole proprietors and
UI, PEUC recipients, so
please share the progress of this MEUC. I would be very happy if you could share the progress of this MEUC.
Please do so.

How to apply for unemployment insurance while in time-limited employment

I would like to know if anyone has had a similar experience.

The son of a friend of mine was laid off part time for corona reasons and received UI.
He is currently in a long pending because of overpayments.

Son started a 40 hour/week Federal job from mid-May through July.
He will be DISQUALIFIED because he exceeds his WBA, but this job will end in mid-July, so he is planning to keep filing.
However, he is behind in pay for the Federal job, so he is holding off on filing for 3 weeks.

If I go more than 4-5 weeks without filing anything, will I lose my eligibility for UI benefits ?
If you have had a similar experience or know of anyone who has, please let me know! ? Thanks in advance.

[About Fixed Term Employment Contract ( Limited Term Work )]

I have seen several past cases of Fixed Term Employment Contracts so far, so I will share what I know about them.

Please read the following only on the assumption that the Overpayment is not due to illegal causes such as out-of-state stay filing, intentional overfiling, spoof filing, etc., but due to simple errors in paid leave reporting, etc., and "expected to be resolved eventually"!

"Your son started a 40 hour/week Federal job from mid-May through July, which is DISQUALIFIED because it exceeds his WBA, but he is going to keep filing because this job ends in mid-July."

I suggest you get a certificate ( dated for the start and end of the work period, signed by the employer ) from HR at the Federal job that the work is for a limited time from mid-May through July. Or if you have a contract copy that contains similar information, that would still be fine. If you submit the certificate or contract copy to the UI office, it will not be misinterpreted as "Quit ( Quit ) yourself".

There have actually been quite a few cases in the past where a fixed-term employment contract was misunderstood as a "Quit" because the applicant did not submit a certificate or a copy of the contract on his/her own.

"But I'm behind on my pay for the Federal job, so I'm holding off on filing for three weeks. ?

In conclusion, you will not lose your UI eligibility. In either case, you will need to update your UI account with the Federal Jobs Employer Update. The procedure for updating your employer information is the same as #301 in the "PEUC September Extension Program ( Third PEUC )" topic.

You do not have to file weekly if your Federal work salary reliably exceeds your WBA or 40-hour work week ( but you do need to update your employer information addition ). Some people file properly every week even if they exceed. Either is fine, the rest is up to the individual.

Last year, UI accounts were automatically suspended after a few months of not filing weekly.

"If you choose to file weekly for WBA or Federal payroll even if you exceed 40 hours per week"

Are you in a position to file weekly even with Pending due to overpayments ? If you can If so, you should file weekly for hours worked and labor income for the week without waiting for your paycheck to be deposited. If you do not know your weekly labor income, I think you can ask HR and they will find it out for you.

Postscript.

Part-time is a layoff, so Job Search activity is required. However, I can't find an answer on the Job Search website as to whether or not you need to do a Job Search while working more than 40 hours per week on a fixed-term contract with WBA, so please ask the call center about that.
