I am the mother of a local high school senior.
Since she has been with me, she comes home late every night and sometimes doesn't come home until dawn. When I set a curfew (9:00 on weekdays and 11:00 on weekends), she complains that we are the only American high school students who have a curfew. ?

Also, since he has a girlfriend, his grades have dropped drastically and he has been late for class more often, but he says that he is fine because he has already decided on a university and his tardiness and grades will not be reflected in his future schooling.

How to divide tips between servers and sushi chefs

I would appreciate your opinions on how to divide the tips between the server and the sushi chef at a Japanese restaurant with a sushi counter.
We would like to hear from as many people as possible, even if you are not an experienced server or sushi chef.
Most customers come to a sushi restaurant for great sushi. I don't think there are any customers who come to the restaurant for servers except for their friends. We feel that it is up to the server to provide good sushi and make it better.
Some servers say that all tips should be taken by the server, but I wonder if that is true. ?
The hourly rate is decided by the restaurant based on the experience and work style of the person. One major Japanese restaurant does not mainly do sushi, but they split it 50/50. Please let us know how to make it mutually agreeable. Thank you in advance.

I recently received a notice to renew my driver's license.

I read in the instructions that I can apply online.

Does this mean I don't have to go to the DMV anymore to get a new photo taken?

I know my appearance will change after 5 years, but...

Is it normal to be able to do this online now?

Has it changed in Corona?

My headlights are starting to look like sliding glass and I want to do something about it myself, but I've seen so many things on YouTube and other places that I don't know what's best.
If anyone has actually done this and has any recommendations, I would be grateful for your advice.

Baby lead problems

My child's (2 years old) blood test showed that lead was detected or was in high concentration. \The doctor told me that we live in an old house and that the street was very quiet. The doctor asked us if we lived in an old house, and yes, it was very old. But we painted all the rooms ourselves before we moved in, and we don't touch the walls outside the apartment, and if we do, we wash them immediately.
But my thought is when I wash myself, my kids drink the water from the shower. Is that likely to be the cause if the water pipes are old ? If so, I will immediately switch to a shower with a filter. The first blood test was taken from my finger, and the retest will be directly from my arm, so they will get a more accurate reading.
What if the lead level is still high on the retest ? I'm very concerned because I did some research and found that it can cause learning problems.

I still have my certificate of residence in Japan, is there any problem if I leave it as it is ? My child's resident registration is also still the same. If anyone has any experience with this, please advise.

I was told I need a 1095-A for my tax return. I was insured with Covered California, but since the other day I have not been able to sign in to the Covered California site and have not been able to get the 1095-A … Is there any other way to get it besides getting Covered California ? on my tax return? Please let me know if anyone has used a 1095-A ! !

Hawaii Estimated Tax

This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

I file my own tax return every year using Turbo Tax.
I have already filed for 2023.
The federal Estimated Tax payment amount is automatically calculated and there is a payment voucher, but
the State of Hawaii has you enter the amount yourself and I wasn't sure so I skipped it.
I use Hawaii Tax Online to pay my Hawaii Income Tax, but
If I want to pay my 2024 Estimated Tax, can I decide the amount and pay it myself on Hawaii Tax Online ? Or, since I did not set the amount of Estimated Tax for 2024 when I filed the 2023 tax return, can I pay the amount of Estimated Tax for 2024?
Thank you very much.
