I just got a puppy and I am not sure which groomer to go to. He is a small long-haired dog.
Please let me know what you recommend and any mistakes you have made.
Please share anything you can think of, including prices, whether they are reasonable or expensive.

That Japanese-owned store can also hurt you. Dogs are scared because they cannot tell what has been done to them. No wonder more and more people are cutting their own hair these days.

The people who are writing to make Topix anxious are hired trimmers, judging from the content. From the style of writing, it seems like they are the same person. Some of the threads you wrote were also deleted immediately.

Please don't write here, call the police or animal shelters and have them investigate the problematic salon as soon as possible. If you have proof, they will move quickly. It is better for the dogs and their owners.

If you can't report it, then it must be a problem on your part that got you fired ? ?

I think it is the unrelated salon owners who are annoyed by your half-hearted posts. If you persist in writing, you will be legally sued for obstruction of business ?

Dear Topi
When you are walking your dog, you can get to know other owners who are walking their dogs, and you can be sure to get information about conscientious salons by word of mouth.

How to report PUA income

Question

I would appreciate it if you could tell me if you know how to enter when you worked for PUA.

1, [Did you work or telework between Sunday, April 25, 2021 and Saturday, May 1, 2021? employment."]
After being asked, if you worked, answer with YES
and you will be asked the next question.
2, 'What were your gross earnings (before taxes) for the period between Sunday, April 25, 2021 and Saturday, May 1, 2021?'
I worked during this period, but my actual Paycheck ( Deposits ) are paid by check in a month or so,
how should I enter ?
I haven't actually received the money, but I calculated the approximate hours I worked and
entered an approximate amount? ? Or,
the next question is:
3. 3, 'I had no earnings for the period between Sunday, April 25, 2021 and Saturday, May 1, 2021.
Should I report and file the income on the date the check was actually paid ?

In short, I worked but have not received the deposit yet, so I don't know for sure the gross income ( I only know the approximate amount. ) so
I don't know how to report it.

I would appreciate it if you could let me know.
Please let me know.

Dear PUAs,

I suggest you ask questions of locals in the "Hawaii PUA Updates&Support" Facebook Group ( to see which advice is not based on word of mouth but on real life examples. ).

You can also ask the call center, but the PUA, like the UI, has been getting disparate advice from the call center for the last year.

After getting advice from locals on the Facebook Group, I think it would be a good arrangement to reconfirm with the call center whether the advice is accurate before submitting the labor report, which would prevent as much trouble as possible later on.

Question.

I will be completely laid off in April.
I have read the write up on how to apply for UI in the PEUC 13 week content and I think I will be fine.

If I am completely laid off from furlough, will my UI entitlement period be extended ?
Also, how long will my currently exempt job search be exempt ?

I am sorry.

I checked the past posts and the handbook in my own way, but I just couldn't figure it out, so I thought I would refrain from asking questions, but I wrote.


Since the company name had not yet disappeared in the normal claim, I reactivated it today, 4/11/14.

The question item at this time was
after the above date were you paid wages more than $ • • • • • • or worked 40 hours or more in any work week?
→ Choose No

Reason:
Not working. Because we have determined that paid work is not WAGES.
(I also selected yes just to be sure, but there is no indication to enter the amount or time)

Was I correct in answering No here ?

In case you were wondering how much pay you were paid in March,
Did you Did you receive residual pay, commission or other deductible income such as bounuse,or back pay?
(I don't think there was anything else to declare other than this item)


How is the payment of paid salary treated?

rainbow,

I understand your feelings. There is nothing in the handbook about this arrangement, and it makes me a little nervous.

"After the above date were you paid wages more than $ • • • • • • or worked 40 hours or more in any work

Please answer NO. If you answer YES, you will be systematically trapped.

"In case you were paid in March, did you receive residual pay, commission or other deductible income such as bonus, or back pay?" select yes and report."

If you have been paid since you obtained unemployment insurance, you can answer YES. Paid pay falls under "residual pay".

If the employer information disappears on your next File a Claim Certification application, you are done. Alternatively, you can open the Reactivate a Claim application until you are about to click the submit button to check if the employer information is missing.

I don't know how many days it will take this year when the UI system is upgraded, but last year, there were many cases where the employer information disappeared 2 or 3 days after the Reactivate a Claim application was submitted.

Applications for 4/10 and up to 4/17 were approved in about 10 days each week.
4/24 was approved immediately after application.

I tried to apply for 5/1 today, but it seems to have been changed to Biweekly.

Many people around me said that it didn't make much difference whether they used a lawyer or not.
(Especially those who were expecting to speed up the process said it was exactly the same without using a lawyer. I think if you read it carefully, it's not that difficult.
And anyway, I found most of the answers by reading international marriage blogs and such lol.
Congratulations on your engagement. Good luck !

It is legal to sell home made bread.
You do not need a permit from the Hawaii Department of Health.
Anyone can sell their products as long as they take a FOOD SAFETY course and obtain a Certificate.
Only in-person sales, wholesaling to restaurants and stores is not allowed. Online sales are also not allowed.
Farmers ・ You can also open a store at the market. ( Often requires an event permit )

Thank you so much for your detailed information.
I'm ashamed to admit that I don't have that kind of skill, so it's unlikely I'll ever be on the selling side, but
I'm sure some of you reading this found it very helpful. Of course, it makes all the difference if the buyer knows about it or not. It also leads to peace of mind.

I always think of this exchange square when I read it, and I am impressed by the many knowledgeable people here.
At the same time I feel ashamed of my ignorance ・ ・.

Waikiki,

Thank you for your message. It is true that some unfamiliar English words such as "Glitch", "Escalate", and "Furlough" appeared in the unemployment insurance. Even the locals didn't seem to understand them. At the time, I didn't understand them either, so I asked the unemployment insurance help team to explain them to me.

As for Overpayment, the number of people who have been contacted by the UI office is increasing, so I think it won't be long before Waikiki-san is contacted as well. Please be assured of that.

UI recipients, are you active in returning to work ??

One year after the pandemic, I am sure there are many business owners and unemployed people who have been saved by the generous relief measures of the US government.
I am one such business owner.

Vaccine coverage has increased, tourism has come back quite a bit, and economic activity has picked up.
In addition, $ with this bailout money, which amounts to several pickup billions, coming into the state, I predict that there will be bubble-like consumption in the future.

Our employers have responded by encouraging people to return to work, asking for more hours, and recruiting, but we are still more understaffed than before the pandemic.
That's because you don't have to work to receive UI.

I know that there have been many questions about UI entitlements here on the topic and many people have been saved by great respondents, and I have been supportive, but now that so much economic activity has returned, it's time for you to get back to work ?
This is not a good idea. ?

As a capitalist nation, we have a duty to work and pay taxes in America.
I believe that unemployed people who do not look for work or refuse offers to return to work should stop receiving UI payments, and I will lobby for that.

Please get back to work for the future of Hawaii's economy !

I kind of understand what you are trying to say, Topi.
"XX store is looking for someone, but no one is available ?" has come up a lot in the last few months.
But in the end, everyone's answer is, "How much per hour ? then it's better to get a UI." And that's the end of it.
Although they say that they are in trouble if they don't do this, they don't try hard to find a job because of the good amount of UI money in the immediate future.
I don't know about those who were high-skilled and paid well because I am not around them, but those who were part-timers or belonged to the tourism industry are often like this.
I think this idea will never go away ? as long as UI's $ 300 etc are out there.

Reading this topic, it seems to me that the focus here is on unemployment insurance recipients
rather than trying to get current unemployment insurance recipients to return to work,
I would suggest that employers who are hiring should focus on making further efforts to expand employment beyond those recipients.
If they are already receiving unemployment insurance, they should focus their efforts on expanding employment beyond those who are currently receiving unemployment insurance. If you are already working on this and can't find anyone willing to work for you, that's even worse.
There are many more people with skills and abilities who are looking for work who are not receiving unemployment insurance because they did not meet the requirements for unemployment insurance
for some reason, such as being sick at the time they applied for unemployment insurance, leaving Hawaii, or accidentally leaving before the Corona Disaster
than those who are currently receiving unemployment insurance. There are quite a few people with skills and abilities who do not receive unemployment insurance.
There are various types of people, including those who are able to live on their previous savings, those who are trying to light a fire under their fingernails, and those who
may not be able to afford food, clothing, and shelter at this point.
I think it will be easier to balance supply and demand between those who need people to work and those who want to work.
For example, if you are a restaurant owner, you can offer meals, or if you can afford a room, you can offer live-in work, etc.
I think it is necessary to make efforts to secure good human resources by considering some attractive conditions and benefits as much as possible.

Some of the current unemployment insurance recipients may be thinking TAKE IT EASY, while others may be thinking ahead.
At this point, it is said that PEUC-related unemployment insurance will not be available until the first week of September at the longest, so
it is not something that people around you should be fussing about, since it is your own choice whether you will be the ant or the grasshopper.

#20 Business Owner,

Thank you very much for your sincere response and support. I admire from the bottom of my heart Japanese people like you who are making a great effort to blend in with the local community in the U.S. I am sure that you are doing a great job. I can only imagine how wrenching it must have been for you when you reviewed your management. I am so glad that you were able to pass and successfully receive a PPP loan, which is a payroll compensation program for employers.

The Unemployment Insurance Help Team says that even the UI Office, which is Essential Work, is understaffed. However, in the case of the UI Office, "salary not commensurate with the highly intelligent nature of the work" and "short-term employment" are said to be the biggest reasons for the low application rate.

Hawaii is still far from fully reopening. Not only the tourism industry, but also sports bars, karaoke, movie theaters, and other dense industries have only partially reopened after being permitted to operate. As you know, there has also been news that corona infections may increase again and return to Tier Stage 2.

Unless the corona subsides further with the vaccine, it seems that the employer side, the unemployed side, and the worker side are all stuck and now have no choice but to follow the final decision of the federal government in the White House and the Hawaiian government. You may have already contacted them, but if you want to express your opinion as an employer, it may be useful to contact the Hawaii government representative who has jurisdiction over the area where your employer's business address is located directly and let them know the current situation that is happening at your employer. As for the $300 per week and COBRA free health insurance benefits that are said to be hindering the application rate, I think the federal government will indeed not extend them after September, unless the newly introduced mutant coronavirus spreads and causes a re-lockdown. I think we will see new activity in the job market around that time. Regarding those who are unemployed, as far as I know, the overwhelming majority are experienced and talented people. Thinking about how we can attract them and reinforce human resources may be a new management technique that employers are testing in the current Corona era. In particular, you may want to read past cases of companies that have been very successful in hiring seniors, as they often provide hints.

Rather than lobbying activities that could be misunderstood as pushing people who are unemployed away, I think that an attitude of support and full cooperation for their return to work would attract people to the inside of the business owner who is working hard in local business while contributing to the community.

In any workplace, employees silently watch every aspect of their employers and managers. Especially in the small Hawaiian community, the exchange of information among employees can spread quickly. Loco people also exchange information closely with each other, saying, "Be careful about jobs at this company, because they are outrageous. They exchange information closely with each other. Considering the business owner's future business development, why not refrain from this kind of lobbying? I have read the various voices on this topic, and while the business owner understands the Hawaii unemployment situation due to the Corona blowout, I thought I wrote this with the intention of criticism and flames, but this topic has become a sad composition of "workers vs. unemployed vs. employers" with no one benefiting. As a result, I feel that the true intention of the employer, "I want everyone to think about this for the sake of Hawaii's economy," has become difficult to convey and has led to the opposite effect.

As a personal suggestion, you may have already posted this, but if you are looking for Japanese staff, it would be much more meaningful to lobby your fellow employers to "get the procedures from Vivinavi and post it on the job search board".

Currently, with the ongoing topical discussion on the unemployment insurance program, the number of visits to the BibiNavi site is increasing rapidly, and the probability of unemployed people reading the job search bulletin board is increasing. Before finishing a job posting on the Vivinavi site or Indeed site, if you have friends who are unemployed, interviewing them about what kind of job descriptions they find appealing may be a quick way to increase the application rate.

I also volunteer in the local community when I have time. Let's work hard for each other in hopes of Hawaii's revival. I wish for the continued growth of your company.

Hawaii is full of incompetent Japanese people, so many of them do not have the courage and energy to work in a new place. Most people are satisfied with a shared room and hang on to Hawaii no matter how long they are in a Japanese-owned company with a generous binefit.
There are so many people who only see value in themselves living in Hawaii.
They have no choice but to hang on to their unemployment insurance.
They are incompetent.
It's a sad state of affairs.

To everyone reading this topic,

Nice to meet you. My name is sunset and I have been helping those who are unemployed in the topic about "PEUC Unemployment Insurance Extension Program". I have read the various voices on this topic and would like to share my thoughts. Please forgive me for the length of this message. I myself once experienced unemployment and am now back to work. I have also been an employer in the past. I have a reasonable understanding of the struggles and perplexities of those who are unemployed, those who are working, and those who are employers.

Several of the loco unemployment insurance help team who back me up are still unemployed in the tourism industry and the rest are working short or full time. One of them is a mother with three small children.

All of the Unemployment Insurance Help Team are highly intelligent enough to decipher the White House Federal Corona Bailout Bill overnight, which is so difficult to phrase that even English speakers cannot read it. I am the only one who cannot read the bailout bill, and I have asked them to explain it to me and provide information on this exchange square as needed.

First of all, I would like to express my deepest and most sincere thanks to those of you who have been working for Essential Companies since the Corona lockdown without receiving unemployment insurance benefits. It is because of your work that we are able to eat, shelter, and clothe ourselves safely.

I would like to talk about the unemployment insurance due to this corona impact. If you ask me, the UI office was really in a bad situation this time to the point of losing my temper. The Hawaiian Time excuse is just not working: the information sharing between the UI director and the field staff is ear-splittingly dysfunctional, and the advice from the call center consultation service is disjointed. Furthermore, the UI system is a 1980's version with many errors. Errors still occur even now.

The English-speaking locals, who are swamped by such a UI office, are in a panic, having lost their jobs and being forced to pay tomorrow's bills. The Japanese people were many times more panicked. If the UI office had been more solid, there would not have been so many unemployment insurance topics in this exchange square.

There are so many different types of people receiving unemployment insurance, as well as those who are working and their employers. I am convinced that those who have read and worked hard on my vastly increasing advice and those who have generously provided information are those who have worked diligently even before Corona. Through the dozens of personal consulting e-mails I received every day last year, I can now easily recognize them by their writing style.

These people are serious about their lives, and when the time comes, they have already thought about the best course of action without needing anyone else to tell them. Even locals are in a panic about unemployment insurance, so it doesn't matter if you can speak English or not. It all comes down to the attitude of "Are you going to take it seriously as a party or not?

Also, among those who have become totally unemployed, the more diligently they have worked at what they believe is their vocation, and the more they have worked at a place they love, the longer it will take for their emotional damage to heal. Those who have been temporarily laid off also carry the anxiety of not knowing what will happen tomorrow. The pressure is unimaginable, especially for those who have to support their families.

Therefore, I believe that the generous unemployment insurance includes "psychological recovery money" for those who have been laid off without saying whether they want to or not after being hit hard by the Corona impact. If they spend a great deal of that recovery money on shopping, eating, and drinking, the sales will spread to essential companies. For example, if you shop for vegetables at the supermarket, those sales will help the supermarket, the supplier, and the farmer. As a side note, the restaurant cards distributed to the unemployed saved many in the restaurant and distribution industry, and many in the restaurant industry are still clamoring for the restaurant card to be reissued.

Without this unemployment insurance benefit, the overall consumption rate in Hawaii would drop dramatically, and both the worker and employer sides of the essential companies would fall together. And public safety would deteriorate even further, and the Hawaiian economy could irreparably collapse. Right now, I think we are on the verge of a major collapse.

The people who should be criticized the most are the unemployed people who intentionally received unemployment insurance benefits through out-of-state residency, identity theft, and illegal activities and still have not confessed. The UI office is most to blame for not doing their due diligence in awarding the benefits, but as the news has shown, the illegal activity has resulted in the waste of hundreds of millions of dollars in Hawaii's unemployment insurance funds. This illegal activity will later affect the unemployment insurance taxes that each company pays each year. I won't go into details, but last year, I received several harassing e-mails from some of the people who committed illegal acts in the Bibi Navi Exchange Plaza. As a fellow Japanese, I am very ashamed of this story.

Finally. I would like to tell those who are unemployed, those who are working, and those who are employers. Each person has his/her own circumstances and background that others do not understand. I don't think anyone has the right to judge one way or the other unless they are fully aware of those circumstances and backgrounds.

Rocco's Unemployment Insurance Help Team actually reads this exchange square every day using a translation site. Imagine how they feel when they read this topical issue, as they are the most important people with a helping mindset.

And if Hawaii, where we are allowed to live, is to be restored, please reconsider what you can do for Hawaii and those close to you.

PS:
I deeply agree with CLOSE UP's thoughts. If we continue to criticize each other like this, we will only be laughed at by non-Hawaii residents, so it is time for those of us who care about Hawaii to CLOSE up our posts on this topic.

After completing the application, the pattern will be the same as the "PEUC 1st time" and "EB20", so please refer to the "PEUC Unemployment Insurance 13 Week Extension Program" Topic when researching past cases.

Those who have experienced PEUC 1st time are familiar with it, so if you have any questions from those who are experiencing PEUC for the first time, please help them. If you have any questions, please feel free to help them out. Please be polite and help those who ask questions and those who give help to each other.

[Online ceremony consultation appointments]

We are pleased to share a share of an article about online ceremony consultation appointments.

https://www.staradvertiser.com/2021/04/06/hawaii-news/kokua-line/kokua-line-some-jobless-with-pending-claims-will-have-appointments-for-help-canceled/

According to the Unemployment Insurance Help Team, online consultations are handled by staff other than Examiners and Adjusters. Therefore, as mentioned in the article, if you have an appointment with an Examiner or Adjuster for an Overpayment or Pending consultation that requires their approval, the appointment will be cancelled later on.

In other words, it seems to be similar to the image of a "call center turned online".

They are currently only accepting reservations for 84 slots. Currently, only 84 slots are available. I tried to open the system to see how it works, but as I expected, there was a huge competition and the slots were filled years in advance.

My personal impression is that it is faster to contact the call center patiently than to wait forever for an online consultation appointment slot to become available.

If you don't know why you are Pending, please refer to the following list. If you don't know why it is Pending, please refer to it.

For those of you who are planning to have your employer deposit your pay and bonuses, please read #201 in the "PEUC has not yet been approved" Topic and keep in mind.

We recommend that you voluntarily confirm with your employer that your labor reports match, as there have been many happenings involving unreported labor reports by employers for pay and bonuses.

Regarding severance pay, if the payment is received before the official resignation date or official termination date, it must be labor reported. If it is credited later, there is no need to labor report.

I need to renew my Glynn card, but I am not confident about doing the renewal process on the immigration website by myself, so I would like to have an immigration lawyer's office do it for me.

If it's a renewal, it's easy to do. If you ask a lawyer, it costs a lot of money. Do you have any friends around who might be able to help ??

I asked my lawyer to renew my green card.

When I asked my lawyer, the renewal application was not online but by mailing documents to USCIS.

The current address on the application is my own address, but the mailing address is the attorney's office, so the receipt number and fingerprinting notice will be sent to the attorney's office.
My attorney will contact me to let me know when it arrives.

The renewed green card will also be delivered to the attorney's office, and they will mail it to your home by EMS when it arrives.
Or you can go to the attorney's office to pick it up.

(You can check the progress from the USCIS website with the receipt number. )

It may vary depending on the attorney you ask, but that was my experience in my case.

With this current corona disaster, it may take even longer if the renewal application is mailed, so you may want to ask if it is possible to apply for renewal online even when going through a lawyer ?.

I updated online in Feb.
I translated words I didn't understand as I went along.
Appointment for fingerprinting etc. seems to take 6 months now because of the Corona disaster, and the date has not been decided yet. You can also check the current status by logging in yourself.

I applied by mail to USCIS on 12/26/2020.
I did it myself, without an attorney.

The process to get the card was almost the same as #3 Yacht, but I did everything by myself without an attorney.
It took more than a month to receive the receipt notice, but I was able to check the status on the USCIS website after receiving it.
At first, I was told that it would take 5 months to get my fingerprints taken ( Next step ) But after a while, I was told "No fingerprints taken, you can use your previous one"
As a result, I received my new green card in the mail at the end of March. No fingerprinting, but no refund of the "fingerprinting fee" paid at the time of application.

According to the USCIS website information, due to the Corona disaster, the renewal process is taking a lot of time, so
a statement has been added to the receipt noteice from January 2021, stating "During the renewal process, the green card you are currently holding will expire one year after expiration. I have a receipt note for my case. In my case, I received two receipt notices, the first one was the normal one and the second one included the above extension.
