My Vertical Blind that I have been using for over 10 years is broken. When I try to close the blinds, only the first two move, I suspect the Cord is the culprit. If anyone can repair it, I would appreciate an estimate. Thank you in advance.

Is it possible to reapply for a green card after abandoning it ??

I'm going back to Japan to take care of my parents, and I'm wondering if I can apply for a green card when I'm done taking care of my parents The application fee is too high $ over 600, and I remember that I have to reapply every 2 years ? ?

If this is the case, I'm wondering if I can give it up once and return to Japan.
I'm not sure if I can apply for a green card when I'm done taking care of my parents again.
My husband is American and a homeowner.
Speaking of which,
I'm also worried about ? the higher property taxes on houses we don't live in starting this year, as I recall. ....

I wonder if it is naive to think that I can leave once I reapply for a green card, even if I can't be sure if I can get one ?

sorry.
if anyone knows
please !

I am a timely viewer of YouTube with content similar to Kanikani22's question.
The good thing about this "Diceke" program is that you can hear the real voices of people living abroad who have actually experienced the program.
( Actually it is not sound but text, lol )
It may be none of my business, but I hope it will be of some help.

When I register online as a Sam's Club member

My question is, if I use a Japanese credit card, I will be charged
and if I don't use a US credit card, I will be charged
Please tell me if you know anything about this.

#2's advice is good !

If you live in Hawaii,
you have a bank debit card.
If you can't pay by Japanese credit card,
you can pay by debit card.
I know an American who lives in Hawaii and is a member of Sam's Club even though he does not have a credit card

I am looking for a good orthodontist in Honolulu, but I don't have much information about the best places to go.
I'm an international student, so I don't have insurance here, but I'm not too worried about the cost, I'm looking for a teacher who will be most helpful. If you have any experience or information, please let me know. Thank you very much. _. \Thank you very much.

Kim Orthodontics
https://kimbraces.com/

I am on Invisalign here.
I have a friend who also goes there and it has a good reputation.
The cost is cheaper than in Japan even without insurance, and the technology seems to be more advanced and experienced in the U.S. ( It depends on the doctor. It depends on the doctor, but ) I had done it before in Japan and it was about half the cost, although it was my second time.

Dr. Kim and all the staff are very nice and helpful. The manager and some of the staff at Ala Moana speak Japanese. There are no additional charges after the initial payment and they will correct you until you are satisfied. I have one spot that is still bothering me, so it is taking more than 6 months longer than planned, but they are very kind and attentive to my needs. I went to several doctors before deciding on this one, but this one was by far the best. He is a popular and well-known doctor, so it takes time to make an appointment and reschedule, but I recommend it.

What company do you all have your car insurance with ?

I am thinking of changing insurance companies due to the high prices in recent years.


Any recommendations for a good company?

Depending on the plan and other factors, geico is cheap if you only need the minimum coverage for bodily injury ・ and property damage.
Although they do not have a good reputation for their response to accidents … …
You can get quotes from several companies on the internet.

You can't put anything personal in the car, the only thing you can put in the trunk is the spare tire, and if you are sent by Mattson, you will have to bring your personal belongings back in a box for inspection, and they won't accept a gas tank unless it is less than a quarter of a tank.

We containerized our household goods and car together.
In doing so, I put clothes, dishes, etc. in the car, trunk, and back seat. It may not be possible to deliver only the car, though.
It was cheaper than shipping the household goods and the car separately.

I think the application form is I-131.
I see that 14-79 year olds have Filling Fee $ 575, Biometrics $ 85, Total $ 660.

Procedures after transporting a vehicle from Japan to Hawaii

Question
#1

  • 2023/11/14 13:03

I am shipping my car from Japan to Hawaii, but I have already taken the necessary steps to send the car from Japan to Hawaii
and am just waiting for the car to arrive.
I did a lot of research on the procedures after the car arrives in Hawaii, but could not find any details, so I got a quote from a company that said it would cost $ 2,200, but after further research
I found out that if I do everything myself, the cost is not that much. I found out that if I did everything myself, it would not cost that much.
However, the more I looked into the details, the less information I found, so I was wondering if anyone has experience transporting a car from Japan to Hawaii before or knows more about it !.

I think ? it might be helpful if you google
"car import procedure from Japan to Hawaii" or something like that.
It seems to be very troublesome, so I think it would be better to ask them to do it for you if you can pay for it.

You definitely need a license plate for the car, and you pay taxes there, so ask Citi ?

My husband bought his car online from Mainland, and he did it himself. The tax part and the car inspection part are very important.

By the way, it is also important that the car is not an illegal car with American specifications. If there are any illegal parts, you should be fined.

Sorry, this is a little rough information.

I know you said that no reservation is required for Hawaii residents, but if a resident and a tourist go together, does the tourist need to make a reservation and pay ?
since when a resident and a tourist went together, the tourist was also allowed inside without making a reservation or paying . I was wondering what Hanauma Bay is like and if anyone knows anything about it.

I went with a friend who was able to sightsee.

I don't need a reservation because I am a Loco ID holder, but my friend definitely does.
I checked the name list at the entrance to see who would be coming in what time slot.
I was asked twice if I had a reservation ? while walking to the entrance and I showed it to them.

For your information.
