Payment for the Clinic

I mailed the clinic payment with a check, but it has been about 10 days and it still has not been debited when I look at my bank account. I called the clinic and asked if they received the check properly, but they said they don't know since they are asking the Billing company to do so, but they will inquire next week.
How long does it usually take for the check to be reflected ? I am worried because it has been too long since I paid by mail.

I think it is up to the accountant working at the clinic to decide when the clinic will put the check they receive into their account.
I have paid various clinics with checks, and some were very slow, such as the one that was debited more than 2 months after I mailed it to them.
I was also concerned and called them, but the person who answered the phone gave me his name and said not to worry, as the system has recorded that you called me. The point is, if they have a record that you are willing to pay and that you have properly sent the check, I don't think the clinic will impose any penalty on you.
If you called, please note the date and time of the call and the name of the person who answered the phone so that if you do not receive the mail, you can prove that you intended to pay and that you checked with the clinic.

I am not a fan of paying by check mail either.
If you receive a bill and the clinic does not have an online credit card payment portal, you can call the clinic directly and ask if you can verbally pay by credit card over the phone ? and they will accept the card payment over the phone. Some clinics will accept credit card payment over the phone.

Thank you A. !
I see that it has taken you 2 months. I am even more worried because I have heard that this clinic had a trouble with Billing campany from a doctor directly long time ago.
I should avoid paying by mail with a check as much as possible.

I think it will take time - I try to pay online or call the clinic and ask to pay by credit card, but if the payment is made and you cry, you will get another bill, so you should be fine!

I have heard that if your profit from Uber Eats or Lifts is
less than $ 25,000 per year,
you do not have to file a
tax return for the following tax year.
I am wondering how this is actually the case.
Please share your experiences and what you have heard.

> I overheard information that you don't have to file a declaration.
It's a simple American system, but not a good or bad one.
Without an SSN, you can't register with Uber or Lyft, and
since filing a W9 is mandatory, the income is automatically reported to the IRS once the 1099 is issued by Uber or Lyft.
And if the income earner does not report it, the unreported surcharge and penalty will come around the time you forget.
The IRS is scarier than an immigration officer, so there is no way to misrepresent your income.

W2 is not issued for less than $400, so it is usually less than $400.

I have never used Uber or Lyft, so it would be nice to hear from someone with experience.

Payment of ESTIMATED tax for sole proprietorships

Question

  • 2024/04/08 12:38

I have a question about paying ESTIMATED TAX for a sole proprietorship.
I did my tax file for 2023 and paid my estimated tax for 2024 online.
However, I may have made a mistake in entering the information.
On the Department of taxation site, when I go to the
tab and choose what applies
1, Paid for … . Is it correct to use "individual income" here?
2, Filing period year … . Is 2024year correct here ? (2023 ? 2024 ? )

Also, if I input wrong information in online payment like this, will they contact me for confirmation ?
. <1466> I have tried to contact them by phone, but the phone lines have been dead.
Thank you very much.

Honolulu Airlines Honolulu ・ Fukuoka Airport Flight \cHonolulu Airlines Honolulu Fukuoka Airport Flight \cHonolulu Airlines Honolulu Fukuoka Airport Flight

Question

I am planning to return to Japan temporarily with my child around the end of May or beginning of June. We are planning to take Hawaiian Airlines Honolulu-Fukuoka Airport flight for the first time, sightsee for a few nights in Fukuoka, and then take a domestic flight (probably ANA) back to our local airport.

If you took a Fukuoka flight recently or last summer vacation, how crowded was the Fukuoka Airport Hawaiian Airlines check-in counter on the plane, at Fukuoka Airport, and on the way back to Hawaii ?

Also, when returning to Hawaii ? I am worried that I will have to push my suitcase and stroller. I usually take direct flights, so this will be my first time connecting.

Thank you very much.

Hawaii Public Schools

I've heard that the level of public schools in Hawaii is among the lowest in the U.S. Is the public school system wiped out ?
Do you have any recommendations for those who currently have children in public schools ?
For private schools, Iolani and Punahou are well known, but the tuition from Kinder to I think it is a little too expensive to pay for more than 10 years of tuition from Kinder.

Punahou, Iolani, and I have friends who are both teachers
I can afford the tuition because I work, but if I didn't, it would be too expensive to send them to school
My friend submits Financial Aid to send them to school
In terms of tuition, there are a lot of different patterns.
As for the quality of the school, he said, "To be honest, you don't have to worry about the quality in the elementary school.
In fact, it's not about the money, it's about the money.
In fact, rich children are more likely to have access to drugs, and they are more likely to have sexual problems at parties, etc. 
This is a problem that is likely to arise in both environments.
I think there will be a difference in the equipment used for education because there will be more money for donation, etc.
If you look back on your own life, you may get a hint
that no matter what situation you are in, if you have the will, you can make it work
. > If your child is the type that is easily influenced, he/she will not be able to get into the top ranks in both public and private schools, and will be lazy
In that sense, if he/she can learn on his/her own and has good friends, he/she will be able to work hard in any environment.

I was wondering this too. I was approved for 3 schools almost simultaneously this month, but I am wondering if I should declare my intent to enroll in all 3 schools anyway if I want to wait until April for the final results from the other schools.
If anyone knows, please let me know.

Why is there a difference even though it is public ?
Isn't the educational content the same?
If there is a difference, is it the difference in the level of students from year to year? ?
Some say it is the difference in teachers, but is there that much difference in the same educational content?

If you are admitted and request admission ahead of time, won't other schools that have not yet received the results not be admitted because they will be registered on the DOE's online ??

I get sick from the smell of marijuana.

I've never had a problem telling people this, but
lately my friends are giving me trouble.
All of them are American.

If you are over 30 and don't like marijuana, how do you deal with it ?

I thought about just making new friends, but I don't know where to go to make American friends who don't smoke pot.
I don't go to bars or nightclubs.

Mr. Ginger

both sides of your house... That is painful. My friend has experienced other drugs as a teenager and insists that marijuana is not a drug. I try not to expand the conversation with marijuana users because it is troublesome to argue with them about marijuana, but it is possible that they do other drugs from time to time. It's time to move away and find new friends.

I am buying a car for the first time in Hawaii and I would like to purchase insurance, but I think it depends on the warranty, but how much does it cost per month ? Also, I would like to know if there are any warranties that I should purchase or that I don't need. Thank you in advance.

I am with StateFarm.
With the discount combined with Renter's Insurance and the discount for participating in a program to monitor my driving
$ 350 / 6 mos. I no longer get quotes from several companies, so it's hard to say if it's cheaper or more expensive.
Also, the type of car ・ the age of the car, how long it has been licensed, driving history, etc. will change the premium. I drive a car that is 11 years old. I have been driving for 15 years in total since I got my license, but my license was revoked once due to visa reasons, so that may have an effect ?.
No history of accidents ・ No violations.

Fortunately, I have never been in an accident, so I have never felt grateful for insurance, but
I have heard that Hawaii has a lot of cars with minimal or no insurance, so it is good to have good coverage in case you get hit.

FYI.

How to get a license

I wanted to get a moped license and wondered, but the license center doesn't have mopeds available, does it?
It seems that you have to bring your own moped to take the practical test, but do you drag it to the license center? It's too far away and it's hard.
And is the test easy ??

According to the City of Honolulu's information,
you must first take a provisional ( paper test ) which will allow you to drive conditionally.
It appears that you can then bring your moped to the Pearl City license center for the test.
So you don't have to push it and take it with you.

There is also an exemption from the practical test.

Moped 50CC and under, or Class 1, doesn't require a license. However, under 50CC, I think you had to take a practical training course.

Is it under 50CC ? or over 50CC ? It depends on that.

According to the following, 50cc and under is Class A and does not require a motor cycle license, but does require a driver's license.
https://www.scooterrentalhawaii.com/hawaiian-moped-laws/#:~:text=Class%20A%20Mopeds,need%20a%20valid%20driver's%20license.
Also, #4 quoted that you need a Class 1 license if you just want to get on moped.
If you don't have a license and desire only to drive a moped, a Class 1 license will meet your need.

Overall, to drive a moped only requires a car I think it means that you don't need to get a car license or a motorcycle license to drive a moped, but you do need a Class 1 license.
