After obtaining my US citizenship, I kept a Japanese bank account using my parents' address in Japan.
My parents passed away a few years ago, and they kept the house, but now the house is going to be sold.
So my parents' address is no longer available.
There is no option to use the address of relatives or friends.
Please let us know your experience if you are able to keep it otherwise.
The bank is one of the city banks.

Thank you very much.

There seems to be some uncertain information written down, but for your reference, I will paste the recent publicity pages of the FSA and the Japanese Bankers Association as follows.
https://www.fsa.go.jp/news/30/20180427/20180427.html

In my case, my bank is Mitsubishi UFJ Bank, and almost every year since November 2020, I have been asked to fill out ・ and return a "Confirmation of Purpose of Transaction" form. In my previous comment, I once wrote that I have never been asked my nationality by the bank, but that is incorrect, and you need to fill in your nationality on this confirmation form. If your nationality is not Japanese, you are required to submit a copy of your resident card to confirm your status of residence. In my case, I have already returned my residence card, so I did not submit a copy. In addition, I have never been asked for my number card information and have never submitted any information.
I have honestly reported ( the current status of my remittance transaction information to the U.S. I have regularly remitted Japanese pension funds to the U.S. ) and have never been unable to remit funds because of this. In my case, I have been using the same account at Mitsubishi UFJ Bank since ( 40 years ago ) before I came to the U.S. and up to the present, so my transaction record may have been evaluated.

There have been some very enthusiastic posts recently about preschools, and I have some questions, etc.
I was also considering Central Union, but I was surprised to see how high the admission rate is. How is it decided whether a child is accepted or not? ? I don't think a 2 year old can take a test, so I wonder if it is determined by the parents' jobs, etc. ?
I would appreciate it if anyone can help me out.

Hello. I took the 3 year old test at Central Union this past January. I wanted to put my daughter in a pre-school (3 year old class , I was 2 years old and my daughter was born in June and she was much younger than the children born in August/September.
15 minutes only children entered the classroom with about 4 children and parents waited in the church. I asked my daughter and she said they played with toys. We received the results by letter two weeks later. My daughter was lucky to be accepted, but I heard that the ratio was much higher than last year. This year, however, it is difficult because of the high ratio of applicants.

However, I would not send them to Central Union. After all, Central Union only has pre, and Punahou and Iolani don't have very high acceptance rates these days, and everyone seems to be going to Midpac, St. Andrews, and Montessori. Many children are going to Public, and Central Union does not seem to be a feeding school to Punahou and Iolani as it used to be.
Same as Waiokeola these days.

If you want to put your child in public kinder, Central Union is a great place to grow and have a child free atmosphere.
However, if you are thinking about taking the Kinder exam, it would be difficult to do so at Central Union.

Mana-san
Thank you for the details ! 2 ・ Even 3 year olds are tested or checked. I was surprised to find out that there is a preschool for 3 year olds. ‼️ I just did a search for preschools and found out that there is a school for 3 year olds to get accepted to preschools, which is unbelievable. I am not thinking of taking the entrance exam. I have lived in Hawaii for a long time, but I am completely ignorant about parenting and education, and I only recently found out that Central Union is a pre-school. I thought it was just a regular church. A friend of mine told me that Kaimuki's preschool is also good, so I am considering that as well.

I looked for a lot of places, but Bead-it was the most conscientious and polite shop I could find.

There is also a place on the 4th floor of Macy's in Ala Moana that fixes jewelry and watches. There is quite a line on weekends, but it is surprisingly empty on weekdays. They can fix even high-end items.

Dual citizenship Travel to Singapore via Japan Use different passports

I have a Japanese and an American passport.
I am going to Singapore via Japan. When I am only going back and forth between Japan and the US, I use my Japanese passport when entering and leaving Japan.
Then when I go to Singapore from there, I leave Japan with my Japanese passport,
and show my Japanese passport when I enter Singapore as well, is that correct?
Does it mean that I only use my American passport when entering the U.S.?

I want to avoid trouble as much as possible, so please let me know if you know.
