How much do you tip when you get takeout ？
Some people say it's not necessary, but in some places it's already included.

When you go to pick up a pizza or something that is essentially a delivery place, I feel like you should tip less because it's not delivery, what do you do ？?

There is a move from the Democrats to change the law so that the nuclear codes are not left to the President alone, but shared with two or three cabinet members.　Under current law, if the President gives the order to push the nuclear button, it is absolute obedience ！ Biden's dementia will destroy America, or the revised law will save America ？ ？.

Submission has been required in the U.S. since January 26th here, which institution in Japan did you receive your experience ？
I'm looking for one myself, but the cheapest is 21,000 yen including tax, which is expensive.
It seems that kits are mostly mailed, but if you come to our clinic, it would be helpful if it is in Tokyo or the Tokyo city area.

Please let me know.

Dear Tax man

May I ask you a question ？
I am working as a post-doctoral researcher at this university since fall 2018.
I was able to file my 2018 ・ 2019 tax return last year using the non resident alien software registered at the university, but
this 2020 tax return is my third year, so when I entered my tax return into the university's However, when I input my 2020 tax return into the university's tax return software, it says "you are a Resident Alien for US federal tax purposes for 2020" and I can't use this software, so I have to file the same as a US citizen.

I think all I have to do is to submit Form 1040, but
I have only 1042-S, which is written on the internet that it is issued to non resident aliens, and when I contacted the department that issues W-2s at my university, I was told that my W-2 was not available. I was told that they don't have any, and all I am told is to ask all the places that issue 1042-S. \ム"I can't get a response if they are busy when I inquire there …. )
By the way, my salary is paid by the university I belong to in Japan, and it is listed monthly on my pay check here, but no taxes are deducted,
for 2018 ・ 2019, because I am a non-resident in the US and have been in the US since 2018. Since I am in the U.S., I did not file a tax return for that amount in the U.S. and had a Japanese tax accountant pay the taxes in Japan, as I thought it would fall within the two-year period under the tax treaty. \모듈을 보려(I received a small amount from the American university as insurance premiums, which is listed on the 1042-S. \I am sorry for the length and lack of coherence, but my question is:

① Is Form 1040 the only document I need to submit to the IRS this time ？ and what is the face value of the income to be included in the form? Also, is it correct to include the face value of the income of the resident alien but 1042 － the face value of the S ＋ the face value of the salary from Japan for the month after 2 years have passed since he/she came to the US (in this case after fall 2020 - end of year) ？
However, it is not correct to include the face value of the salary from Japan like W-2 or 1042-S. I am not sure if the face value of the salary from Japan is correct. However, the only proof of salary from Japan like W-2 or 1042-S is the pay check issued by the university here. Will I have to ask the Japanese university to submit some documents in English? ？

② The income for the documents to be submitted to California is the total of all the salary received from the Japanese university for the year 2020 ＋ The face value of 1042-S. Is this correct? ？ In this case, do I have to attach some documents to prove the amount of salary from Japan? I was wondering if I could find any information about the actual documents to prove it.

Recommended water purifiers

We are a family of 4 and we buy 3 gallons of tap water at Ralphs, etc.
Since we are all home all the time, the water runs out fast and we have to buy more every time, and it takes up a lot of space
We are thinking of buying a water purifier to install in the kitchen or place in the house.
Is there anyone who uses Pi-water, which is mentioned in Nikkei magazine? ？
How does it taste like? ？
We are thinking about Kangen Water, but it is expensive, so we are looking for something more reasonable.
Please let me know if you have any recommendations for water purifiers.
Thank you very much.

If you search for "water purifier" in this Bibi's Town Guide, you will find about 4 potential companies.

Call each one of these and ask about initial costs, monthly charges, etc.

I imagine that the water purifiers themselves are similar or the same. I, for example, have a handyman
element, so I buy the water purifier itself from Amazon and take care of all the installation and maintenance
myself.

Mr. J,

＞ I used a water purifier from one of the Japanese companies for a few days as a trial and it tasted bad

I'm sorry to hear that. Well, it was a disaster. The water purifier itself has nothing to make it taste bad, so maybe the installation was not done properly.


＞ Was it because it was a simple water purifier attached to the faucet? I would understand if the water was purified and then disposed of.


＞ Empty it when you go out

No, you should not empty it even when you go out for a long time. Depending on the internal structure, if there is no more water in a particular interior, the filter elements in front of and behind it may dry out, and in some cases, the next time water comes in, those elements may not be able to function, so you should store water as it is, and when you get home, do not use water from the water purifier suddenly, but waste some cups and start using it from the subsequent water purification. If the water filter element is dry, the water element may stop functioning.

I use water from Japan for tea and soup.
It still tastes good when made with soft water ！
The water from the water purifier is for washing clothes.
I would like to use soft water for shower and other finishing touches.
Please give me some good wisdom.

Do you import "water" from Japan? Or do you mean water purifiers?


＞ I want to use soft water for showers and finishes

If so, as I mentioned before, you should use a system such as Culligan which has larger facilities.

I can buy bottled water from Japan.
It costs more than calpis, but I buy it because it makes a delicious dashi soup stock.
Coffee tastes even better.
Gyokuro, for example, has a much brighter aroma, taste, and color.
I bought a few packets of good tea in Japan, but the taste was different
so I tried a few things.
I think I have arrived at soft water.
