I haven't been back home for a few years, so this may not be much help. when I returned in 2015, I used a Telecom Square voice SIM, which was cheaper because ANA offered free per day usage. when I checked on the web, I found that a lot has changed in Corona. I checked on the web and it seems to have changed a lot in Corona. Nowadays, there are docomo and Softbank for voice SIM （ that gives you a Japanese mobile number ）, but Softbank seems to be a good choice for short term. Prepaid SIMs sold on Amazon and other places are usually data-only, so unless you use LINE or Skype to make calls, it may be a hassle to call people in Japan. If your current carrier in the U.S. is ATT or Verizon, you may be better off with an overseas roaming plan $ 10/day for a short term. For other SIM rentals in Japan, the following URL may be helpful.

First of all, if you have an accident, no matter how big or small, you have to call the police and ask for a scene investigation and an accident report that will be used by the insurance company to determine the percentage of fault for the accident ？.

When did you have the accident ？
Did you contact your insurance company at the time of the accident ？?

Thank you for your reply.
The accident was in early September. The outside injuries were only grazes, so I let it go. Also, it was a few days before I left for college, so I decided I didn't have time, which was a mistake.
I still wonder if they will accept it without the other person's information ？.

Hawaii is no-fault, so the biggest problem is not the availability of the other party's contact information, but
the lack of a police report when you had your accident.

How can you prove to the insurance company that you had an accident months ago ？
It is useless to even think about it. You just have to give up and think it's a learning experience.

I guess the air conditioner repair will be deductible after all ？

Or if you have car insurance, you can use it to repair it ？

Don't your parents know that much about it? ？ don't your parents know that much about it?

As far as I can tell.

There is a "FFCRA Act" for pandemic preparedness, but the target audience is employees working in small businesses with less than 500 employees.

I read an article once that this law was Expired in December 2020 and was re-extended in some states. However, when I checked, I found that the federal Department of Labor website has not updated its explanation of the re-extension.

Federal Department of Labor homepage:
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/pandemic/ffcra-questions

Is this "FFCRA law" still applicable in Hawaii? If so, we recommend that you contact the Hawaii Department of Labor directly for the most up-to-date information on whether you meet the requirements.

I have found other information since then and will add it. They will be paid UI for a week instead of 10 days. The amount paid is not based on your salary as it is, but on your past income for the past 18 months.

Question
I was tested for COVID-19 and am awaiting my results, and my employer told me not to return to work, am I eligible for UI?

Answer
Yes, you are.

However, it takes almost a month to start the online process, pass the screening and get paid. If you have read the unemployment insurance rules carefully in the handbook and still want to receive one week's payment, it would be quicker to find a relative or friend who received unemployment insurance due to the pandemic and ask them to directly tell you how to go about the procedure.

My personal impression is that if the FFCRA law is still in effect in the state of Hawaii, it would be easier to apply for Paid Sick Leave than unemployment insurance, which has many strict rules and conditions.

The money changers in Waikiki are open, but since there are few tourists from Japan, they will not exchange high amounts of money to $ → ¥.
I tried to exchange $ 1000 in April, but was told there were no Japanese yen.

I had to withdraw my Hawaii bank account deposit from the Japanese post office.
There is a limit of 50,000 yen per transaction and a handling fee of 300 yen, but the rate is better than exchanging money at a bank.

Some Japanese money stores will also exchange money, so it may be a good idea to change it after returning to Japan. I myself use this method to exchange Japanese yen → dollars.

Taro, Landlord, Lime

Thank you for your prompt posts.
All the advice was very helpful.

I looked up Wise which Taro-san told me about on the net and it looked very good, so I think I will try Wise this time.
My husband always used a bank for overseas remittance, so I will tell him about it.
It makes a big difference if it is a large amount of money ！

Thank you all very much for your help.

I sent my son to driving school when he was 16 years old, before Corona. I don't know if they do it now, but it is affiliated with Honolulu Auto Rent-a-Car. \I don't know if they do it now, but it's an affiliate of Honolulu Auto Rent-a-Car.

My high school daughter attended here two years ago.
Koby's driving school
(also at the school's Driving Ed due to schedule conflicts)

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)
Koby's driving school
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 hope you can find a good school.

Thank you for your prompt reply. You are right, I was worried about the need for a return postage stamp.
Since it is a document to a government agency, they don't seem to accept money orders.
I have no family in Japan, so I have no one to buy it for me ….
