The following answers your questions regarding filling out the W-4.

Basically, if you are single or married filing jointly,
simply select Single or Married Filing Joint in Step 1 of the W-4 and
sign Step 5.

Step 2 is for those who have multiple jobs or whose wife also works for a company
and
Step 3 is for those who have children.

The problem is with Step 4, especially in the case of this question,
（ I think the Extra withholding section of C ） needs to be filled out.

As to your question, "Federal tax was only deducted by a few tens of dollars."
So, if you have to pay it every time you make a tax return,
you need to ask the company's accounting department in advance
to add the same Federal Tax each time you make a tax return.
For this purpose, you can specify
the amount of tax to be paid each time in the （ C ） Extra withholding field in Step 4.

Here is an example.

First, look at the 2021 1040 form.

The total tax amount is shown in column 24.
The amount of tax collected from the W-2 is shown in column A of number 25.

Suppose

the amount in #24 is ＄ 2 ， 600 ． 00.
And let's say the total amount of W-2 in #25 is ＄ 1 ， 300 ． 00

In the declaration, ＄ 1 ， 300 ． 00 （ ＝ ＄ 2 ， 600 ． 00- ＄ 1 ， 300 ． 00 ）
payment.

To avoid this, you can enter ＄ 50 ． 00 in Step C of W-4 and specify to pay
additional ＄ 50 ． 00 from each Paycheck,
additional ＄ 1 ， 300 ． 00 （ ＝ ＄ 50 ． 00X 26 weeks ）, resulting in total income tax payments of
＄ 2 ， 600 ． 00 ＝ ＄ 1 ， 300 ． 00 ＋ ＄ 1 ， 300 ． 00 （ ＄ 50 ． 00X 26 weeks ）
and the total amount of total tax you owe becomes ＄ 2 ， 600 ． 00

Of course, increasing this amount will result in a refund, and you will get
money back on your tax return each time.

You should explain this to your accountant
when you calculate and submit the amount on this W-4.

Please understand and follow the above regarding the processing of W-4s.

I have a client who has very little income tax deducted from his paycheck.

He has a total of 4 － 5 W-2s, and each W-2 has no income tax deducted because he works very few hours at each company （ mainly restaurants ）
.
However, the total amount of W-2 （ 4 － 5 ） is quite large, so when the total is reported on the tax return
, the total amount will come out and income tax will be paid, and

the wife is a W-2 who works for a company. The wife works for a company and is a W-2, but her husband is a free agent and pays income tax on his tax return
and the wife's refund goes to pay the husband's income tax, so she has to pay each time
.
I advised her last year to change her W-4 status to Single instead of Married Filing Joint.

In this case, if you want to avoid paying tax return
, I think the only way is to ask your accountant
to withhold a fixed amount of income tax from your paycheck, starting from a certain dollar amount each time.

I also read this article and wondered ？ if it was true.

At face value of 1 million yen, that's about $7,000 a month at the current dollar-yen rate.
$500 a day for 14 days of work.
If I worked 4 hours a day, $125 an hour.
Since you would be earning almost exclusively in tips, you would handle breakfast at 20% of the cost of the meal, which is about $650 per hour.
If you are in Waikiki, you would handle 22 tables per hour at $30 per meal.

I wonder if it is possible ～ ？
But to begin with, it is difficult to get a work visa to work as a waiter.
Also, even if you are making this much money now, it is a job that is easily affected by the economy. （ But since you are a "migrant", it is probably only temporary ）.
Also, since you would be responsible for your own health insurance, it would reduce your actual income.

And that's my lunch break musings.

No, 7,000 to 8,000 is good ？ if it's 3 or 4 days a week
and 2 of those days are on weekends or during Sunday brunch.
Nowadays, there are more mainland tourists than Japanese tourists, so tipping is better.
Even if you have to pay for your own health insurance, at least 50% of it is covered by the company, and the place I worked at covered 100%
so it's not that hard.
In Waikiki, the hourly wage is high to begin with because of the labor shortage, and if it's plus tips, it's even more so.
I feel it's amazing because it's a million dollars, but I thought it was a normal story if you think about it in dollars.
By the way, a friend of mine works part time at a lunch box restaurant, not a restaurant,
and she said that the tip jar in front of the cash register is accumulating.
Plus those who pay by card charge it to their card, so "I can get 100+ tips in a restaurant like this"
she said.

Maybe that figure is due to the weak yen, but it's ＄ 7 ， 000 per month.
In fact, it is impossible to spend that much on labor.

Tip included, but I don't
think they would pay that much for a wait person.

If the price per dish is going up, then the purchase price is also going up.

So I think ＄ 3 ， 000 to ＄ 5 ， 000 per month is possible.

The reality is, restaurants are hard to manage. I know there are restaurants
that close suddenly every month.

I want you to see the reality. So if you have this monthly income, it is
extremely rare.

Hello.
You didn't mention where the important company is.
Is it Toyota or Honda ？

The amount you assessed at Bluebook is the approximate amount you can sell it for.
If you go through a vendor, they will take a margin.
You are selling a used car here if you are buying and selling between individuals.
I would be happy to be a reference.

Sorry, correction. fee may have cost me when I bought it, but
I don't remember. I think you can probably specify the amount if you buy it at the store.
If you make an account online, you can check the balance on your card

Fee has had to be paid since March of this year, I believe. I think the reason was because it was easy to lose it and then people would make it again.
You can also make them at Food Land customer service. The charge is as Halo explained.

Excuse me.
The scary part of this story is that you went in to clean the room for work
and brought back bedbugs from there.
That means that the bedbugs are in many places from this room.
That's scary.

I wonder if your work company covered the cost of the treatment ？
I was actually thinking about
cleaning work as a second job ？ toward the end of the year.
Are you still working, Mr. Vampire Insect ？?

I think Hawaii is a good place for bed bugs to occur.
Not only because of the year-round warm weather, but also because we have visitors from all over the world,
so it is easy to imagine that it can propagate through their behavior.
You mentioned an older room this time, but it is possible to get
bed bugs regardless of how new or well cared for the room is.
Sometimes the news says it happens in movie theaters, etc.
Once you are affected, you don't feel like a stranger anymore.

To prevent bed bugs, when traveling, once you enter your room, put your luggage in the bathtub
and check around the bed （ under the mattress and headboard ） and open your luggage if it looks safe.
When you go to clean the room, you should also check in this way first, and
if there are bed bugs, you should immediately contact the owner, and the employer should be notified that the room is contaminated with bed bugs, and therefore cannot be cleaned.

Vampire Insect,

Even if you hire a contractor, I believe you will be instructed to wrap the mattress in a bed bug cover.
First, why not buy a mattress cover or base cover from Walmart or Home Depot?

The vendor told us that if the bed is directly on the floor, we should pull a carpet under the bed that has about 20-30 cm more room than the bed, and
sprinkle diatomaceous earth powder on top of it. If bedbugs come in contact with the diatomaceous earth powder when they crawl on it, they will die of dehydration.
The contractor used their own diatomaceous earth powder, which is probably of better quality, but HomeDepot and others also sell diatomaceous earth powder for bed bugs.

I think it was about a week from discovery until the contractor came
I wrapped double-sided tape around the sides of the mattress to catch the bed bugs that were crawling up. I think it reduces the number that come up to the bed.

Some people on the internet are trying to get rid of them themselves.
If the breeding is still in the early stages and the damage is minor, you may be able to handle it yourself.

Poor Busybody,

I haven't told my employer, so I'm not getting any money for treatment
because I can't prove that the bed bug got on my clothes at work.
I still belong to the company I work for.


Thank you, Koji,
for teaching me so much.
I immediately bought cedar oil spray.
I'll wait and see about hiring a contractor, it costs quite a bit of money.



I've been watching a lot of videos on Youtube about killing bed bugs ！
one bug lays 5 eggs every day and they keep growing.
I'm scared.

Elsewhere, there is a private aroma oil seller in Hawaii who sells spiritual beauty products ？ that are powered by Hawaiian sunlight and say that the vibrations … are good, and I thought it would be nice if they sold them normally.
Of course, it's up to the individual.

I met my first mean person at work. Like Topy, I was left out of the group.
I was working diligently and hard, but suddenly he stopped talking to me properly one way or the other, and I could no longer communicate with him, not even to communicate what was necessary for work. His attitude changes depending on his mood that day. The other employees noticed it and warned him about his attitude, but he didn't seem to improve.
I realized once again that human nature is important in a workplace where teamwork is required, and I left early for the first time because I was not suited for the job and the manager had no management skills. I was left out of the group, but I managed to spend my time with them by separating myself from them and saying that they introduced themselves to my humanity. People have their own habits, but I keep my distance from people with big attitudes and big mouths, such as self-proclaimed local Japanese, Japanese who have been immigrants for "a little" longer, people with various connections, etc.

As the title says,
Japanese-only workplaces in Hawaii
always have a mean person like the owner
and the rest are made up of people who don't disobey.
I worked many jobs, but
all the Japanese-only workplaces were the same.
Everyone turns a blind eye so as not to bring fire down on themselves.
It seems like they are always looking for people to work.

I am the owner of several condominium units, including one in the center of Waikiki.
If I may, please take a look at the following.
After the pandemic, both hotels and condos have gone up in price across the board.
Also, the price of rooms varies depending on the condition of the room, such as remodeled, stylish interior,
and the quality of equipment and furniture, so the price will not be the same
just because the name of the condo is the same.
BibiNavi Hawaii also has rooms at ＄ 168~ per night in the park.
Probably a clean and well-equipped room.
Inn on the Park is a 24-hour security condo located on the west side of Waikiki near the Hilton Hawaiian Village and the former Wailana Coffee House
on ・ the ・ Road, just off Kalakaua Avenue and onto Ala Moana Avenue.
The 7-Eleven where the injury occurred is not on Ala Moana Avenue, but back on a street called Ena Road
I won't name the condo, but there are many condos that are much closer to that 7-Eleven.
Also, there were shootings and assaults in the center of Waikiki just the other day, so
I think it is necessary to raise your own security awareness sensors
and avoid going out at night to avoid being involved in anything, no matter where you are.
The Inn on the Park is not in the center of Waikiki, but it has a high percentage of owner-occupied residences
and is small enough to be easily seen by security, making it a quiet and relaxing place to live.
Although large condos in the middle of Waikiki have security, they are often frequented by tourists and other unspecified people
rather than residents, and there are often noise problems.
We recommend that you carefully consider what is important to you, such as convenience, safety, and quietness, before making your choice.
Also, we recommend that you rent from a friendly and reliable tenant or from a proper owner who takes good care of his/her apartment.

If you had a short stay, the owner will
pay the fine.

It is a $10,000 fine per day, so maybe you stayed

When measuring geographic convenience when staying in Waikiki, the standard is determined by how close you are to DFS ？, with DFS （ now closed ） considered central.
The best and most convenient location for condos in Waikiki is the area between Royal Hawaiian and Seaside Avenues.
With that in mind, the Inn on the Park is one of the furthest condos from DFS, assuming it is a Waikiki condo. Still, I think it is OK to stay there if it is inexpensive.
