It seems to be taking a long time now. You mention below that it is taking
a long time to update.
You should go to the site and check your status.

I think the situation will change depending on whether you are applying from Japan or within the U.S.
I think it would be easier to comment if you had a brief current progress report.

The link below is to a green card applicant forum.
For your information.

Then the procedure is in two stages, I-130 (petition) and I-485 (permanent resident application ）).
If next February will be 2 years, then
the I-130 has already been accepted and you are waiting for the I-485 interview?

Currently, the waiting time for I-485 in Honolulu is
24.5 months and 80% processed, right?
https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

If I understand correctly, if you are married to a green card holder, the I-485 should be filed after the
I-130 is accepted.
Based on the information above, 80% of people are processed in about 2 years from the date the I-485 is filed.

If next February is two years from the filing of the I-485, then the goal may be close.
Conversely, if the two years includes the I-130 processing period, we may wait another year or so.

One more thing, is Aoi-san in Japan now ？
In that case, the I-485 is not processed in the US, but through the US Embassy
・ Consulate in Japan, so
the processing time will be different.

Yes, once the I-130 is approved by USCIS, the case is sent to the National Visa Center (NVC) at the Department of State, where the NVC coordinates the schedule with the U.S. Embassy in Japan, and after an interview at the Embassy, the immigrant visa is issued. Once it is confirmed that you entered the U.S. on that immigrant visa, a green card will be sent to your registered address after you enter the country.

The immigrant visa application form is the DS-260, and once NVC processes Aoi's case, it will begin the process of paying the application fee and processing the DS-260. Please refer to the following links for more information.

Back to the main topic, the processing time is
USCIS reviews the I-130,
NVC reviews the case,
DS-260 application to interview,
and the processing speed depends on how busy each department is. The speed will vary depending on the busyness of each department.
It would be easier to compare your time with others if we know where you are in this process.

A woman of that age is sure to be particular and
have a certain amount of everything.
If you think about the possibility of returning or exchanging what you sent
(in the US, after Christmas, people line up to return or exchange their gifts)
Why not just send a gift card of your favorite brand with some chocolates ？
$? From 100 to $ 300, that would be more appreciated.

I have made and given them to friends and family at a store in Pearlridge called memory block and they love them.
You can use any photo or drawing you have of your memories.
They print on a wooden block, it takes about 10 minutes and they wrap it for you.

They seem to come in different sizes and at different prices …
Have a look if you are interested.

Thank you very much for sharing this information.
It would be very convenient if Honolulu had a place to change oil in a shopping center
as well.

Just this morning I had an oil change at the Nissan dealership ≪King Windward Nissan∩.
I had a 7:20 appointment time and finished with a free car wash at 9:00.
There is free coffee in the waiting room.

But the price has gone up a gazillion dollars, it used to be less than $40, but this time it was almost $60.

For your information.

There's an oil change place called "Jiffy Lube" at University City, South Beretania Street, next to Burger King.
It is drive-through style and you don't even have to get out of your car.

We have a tent in the parking lot on the 2nd floor on the mountain side （ same floor as Longs ） in the Ala Moana Shopping Center, so you should be able to find us easily.
For more information, please visit the following website.
In my case, I received the results the next day by e-mail.

It is best to carry both a permit and an expired green card.
In case you are wondering, I asked my lawyer for safety. I applied last September and still
have not received my new card.

Dear Yas
You are right about expired cards and permits. It seems like a small thing, but it is a very good idea to avoid trouble.
Thank you very much.

I renewed my 10 year last September, 6 months before the expiration date.
I received a letter saying no fingerprints and biometrics, and that I would use the 10 year old one but no refund.
I received my green card 6 days after the renewal date.
It was so fast that I suspected it was a fake.
I was wondering if I will be able to use the 10 year old photo for another 10 years ？ ？ ？

I heard it will take more than a year for those who applied this year.
I heard that those who have passed the one year have received a one year extension letter.

I ordered my first photo card this year and decided to go with Shutterfly. I compared many different sites and found a design I liked on Shutterfly. After placing the order, I was able to check the status every step of the way on My Page, and after the order was completed, it was delivered to my home, so I think there is less worry about supplier mistakes like Photo experienced. The finished product was also quite good.

Since you are in the U.S., I
don't think you can watch games from other countries such as Japan.

I think it is better to watch the games in your own home on the Internet or something
like that.

Or you should ask your friends.

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.
