I work in a restaurant. Japanese vaccine certificate is possible because it is written in English ！.

Last month, an acquaintance came from Japan.
I went to many restaurants with my Japanese vaccine certificate.
We went to Chinatown, Waikiki, Kaimuki area, Pearlidge, Kahala,
and many other places.
They wanted to know the date of the second vaccination and the manufacturer of the vaccine, and although there was some English notation, the paper size was different from Hawaii's.
Some of them were confused for a moment. But when I explained it to them, they were OK everywhere.
Not only restaurants, but also leisure facilities and tourist facilities required the presentation of a vaccine passport, but we were able to enter with a Japanese A4 size certificate.

I was told to contact CCH if I need help with rent for December, but they said they can't do it because they don't have the funds. I am working shortened hours and am in a difficult situation.　I applied for EBB for utility assistance and was able to get help, but the phone company did not respond properly and it expired. I had a payment plan set up and have been paying it little by little, but they are adding late charges every month.

I am in trouble because the mutant shares of Corona are going to make it even more difficult for me financially. Can you please let me know if there is any state or Federal assistance available?

I think your overseas trip is over.

would be temporary. If it's over for life, the airline industry will go bankrupt.

Let's be more optimistic. I think the future is bright.

I guess I've been lucky so far. It must have been a miracle that there were so many jobs in Hawaii if you could speak some English. Living abroad means that this kind of hardship is necessary and normal. I guess the question is how to live in this situation. I guess it is time to think about the next development rather than waiting forever for tourism to resume.

The coronas will not end because of a conspiracy by American drug companies ｡

All new coronas are viruses made from humans to make money.

So just when we are about to be cured, there will be another new virus ｡

and each time a vaccine has already been made in advance ｡

today President Biden said don't panic, American citizens are fine. ｡

It will last until 2024.

#11 Living with Corona

Corona will not end because of a conspiracy by American drug companies ｡

If this is true, it is the same thing as the 911 attacks that were made to look like a conspiracy by American life insurance companies

.

Are we Japanese safe to live in the US?

Don't tell me that Corona was also caused by Rothschild?

Thank you for your reply ！
Yes, I will have to put everything I can produce as evidence ！
I definitely plan to get that part right, as I would not dare lie to the government, lol.
I didn't think of the brochure ！ Thanks for the idea.
It took you a year. ？
Also, sorry to change the subject, but I was surprised to find out that it costs 30,000 yen to make an appointment at a local hospital that handles negative certificates for Corona travel to the US.
I am planning to go to Haneda → Honolulu, will they do a PCR test when I connect ？
I am sorry, I don't know anything and I am confused.
If you know, I would like to know.
Thank you very much.

So it is possible to meet while applying, is it a gray area?
I'm worried that I'm not clear about that ^^;
Thank you for your support ！ In my case, before the application process, I have to meet first, photo photo photo ！ ！ lol

The best way to find out if you can travel back and forth between the US and Japan while applying for a fiancée visa is to ask the lawyer who filed the application.
It seems that you can travel back and forth now, but not when I applied. So I guess there are a lot of cases on blogs and forums. The law is changing all the time, so ask your lawyer.
Also, you mentioned pictures, but my friend had a digital camera set up so that the date and time would be included in the picture, since the phone wouldn't include the date and time.

I would like to ask those who live in Hawaii.
We are planning to move from Japan to Hawaii next year, and we would like to know if you have brought any appliances from Japan ？
We are thinking of bringing a hair dryer, rice cooker, Dyson vacuum cleaner, etc. from Japan
Do we still need a transformer, etc.? ？ I think that many of the recent home appliances are written to be compatible up to 110v ～ 120v, but I would like to know if anyone is actually using them.

Most electrical appliances （ such as TVs, radios, audio equipment, PCs, etc. ） will work as they are. However, items with high power consumption （ such as hair dryers, futon dryers, etc. ） are dangerous because the heat value of the heater increases by 40% and they become too hot. Those with an overheat detection safety function will turn off immediately. I use a transformer for microwave ovens and futon dryers. Items that use lithium batteries （ Dyson vacuum cleaners, etc. ） When the batteries reach the end of their useful life, lithium batteries cannot be imported from Japan, so you should check if Dyson batteries sold in the US can be used without modification. （ Of course, if you intend to throw them away when they reach the end of their useful life, that is fine. ） The charger works fine. Most houses here have old-fashioned electric heaters （ with nichrome wires ） so it is difficult to control the heat. I bought a new induction range. Portable induction heater （ 1kw ） is working without transformer.

One summer day, the grasshopper spends his time playing the violin and singing. Meanwhile, the ants are hard at work bringing food home for the coming winter.

The grasshopper said to the ant, "You don't have to carry food all the way home, we have plenty," to which the ant replied, "We have plenty now, but come winter there will be no food. But the grasshopper replied, "Summer has just begun. Why don't you spend your time singing happily?" He teased the ant and began to play the violin again.

Soon it was autumn, and the grasshopper was still playing and living.

Then winter came. The grasshopper looked for food, but there was nothing around. The grasshopper, hungry and distressed, remembered that the ants were gathering food, so he went to the ants' house to ask them to share their food with him.

The grasshopper remembered that he had teased the ant for working during the summer and was afraid he would not share his food, but the ant said, "Please eat. In return, please let me hear the grasshopper's fiddle".

The grasshopper rejoiced with tears and played his violin with great enthusiasm. And from the next summer, he began to work diligently.

The atmosphere has changed dramatically with the new mutant and omicron stocks. Locked down in many countries.
Breakthrough infections are also appearing and they are highly contagious. In Japan, new waterfront measures have been announced and the way out is again unknown. There is a possibility that the number of places to work in the future will also decrease.

With mutant strains being discovered one after another, companies doing business in countries and regions where tourism is a major industry must be having a hard time. Companies in the tourism and restaurant industries, where labor costs account for a large percentage of expenses, are having a hard time securing human resources. Even if you want to provide your employees with good working conditions, you are still burdened with the burden of health insurance and other company expenses. I would like to ask all business owners not to give up and to continue their efforts to protect employment, even if only a little.

This is based on the premise of a call from your mother to you in the United States. Have you heard of Skype numbers? When you sign up for Skype for $ 6 per month, you get a Japanese number starting with 050, and when you call that number from a landline ／ cell phone in Japan, the call will be placed to your Skype （ US ）. The caller pays the same rate as a regular phone call. However, this contract is only available to residents of Japan, so you must use your mother's address to sign up with your Skype ID. However, since your Skype ID is registered with a U.S. address, you will be charged approximately $ 6 per month. If you can get your mother to get a new Japanese Skype ID, you can sign up under her name and pay only 300 yen/month. However, since I have not tried this method, I cannot guarantee that you will be able to receive Skype calls on the same US phone using your mother's Skype ID. I assume you are using （ to call a Japanese fixed ／ mobile number on Skype from the US, but skype out ） $ 5 for 165 minutes. Call quality has always been fine. I have never used a calling card so I don't know much about it.

KDDI ended prepaid cards for international calls at the end of October. So it seems that sales at convenience stores have been scaled back.
My parents have been using it for many years, but I took the plunge and bought a tablet in Hawaii, installed Line, and sent it to Japan.

Off topic, does your mother have a Galaga Kei? ？
I used to buy phone cards from Amazon. I bought it and had it mailed to my parents in Japan.
The brand is called Icom.
I just looked at it and it is for sale, so if you have a Galaga, you can use it ？


Next, about the phone card I bought in the US.
If the connection is to a toll free in the US, such as 1-800.

If you call a toll-free number in the U.S. from Japan, you will hear an announcement in English saying, "The number you call will be charged regular international rates from overseas, so if you still want to call, just keep waiting …. It is as the announcement says. （ However, from cheap IP phones, you may not get an announcement, and you may be charged for the call ）

Depending on the type of calling card, the access line may be in another country, not only in the U.S., so please check the URL on your calling card. If your calling card has a URL, you may be able to find the access number for Japan if you access it once and check.
If there is an access line from Japan, it is often for international toll-free numbers starting with 00531.

You are worried because you can't even go back to your hometown in Corona in the middle of the day. I hope you find a good solution😊.

Sorry
I don't know if this answers your question, but when my mother has something urgent or something she wants to talk to me about, I ask her to hang up and I call her back.
This way I don't burden my mother at all 😊.

My parents also have only a mobile phone and appliances, so I have them do the same as #5 Hawaii and have them do "one hangup" and I call them on my LINE phone to their appliances. line phones are cheap.

Thank you for your answers.
I will let my mother choose from your answers.
I am currently using a callback system, but I would like to know if there is a calling card that my mother used to use, and what kind of tools other elderly people use to contact people overseas.
Thank you so much for your help. Thank you very much.
