Please refer to the following response to your question regarding the inclusion of W-4 forms.

Basically, in the U.S., a married couple filing a return is not treated as
dependents, even if the wife does not earn income. Basically, the income of a married couple, even if only the husband earns
income, is considered to be the income of the couple, and 50% of the income is considered
to be the wife's income.
The IRS return has a form to calculate Other dependents, and the
details of the Other dependents are entered on that form and filed.
The sixth item on that form is the number of Other Dependents.
In the notes, there is a note that the wife should not be included in this Other Dependents.
Please see attached below.

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040s8.pdf

6 Number of other dependents, including any qualifying children who . 6 Number of other dependents, including any qualifying children who are not under age 17 or who do not have the required social security number . . . . . . . .

Caution: Do not include yourself, your spouse, or anyone who is not a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or U.S. resident alien. Also, do not include anyone you included on line 4. 6 7 Multiply line 6 by $ 500 . . . . . . . . . . .

My husband and I are filing as husband and wife ( co-workers ) We have entered our number as 0, but both FEDERAL and STATE from the company were deducted less and we had to pay taxes every year, so we recently amended our W-4 to have an extra amount deducted as a plus.

They will deduct the extra amount you want from your salary as your tax amount.

I would like to build a guesthouse in my garden, but I haven't heard much about people close to me who have built something on a budget using something like prefab or manufacuture houses, but I think the demand is actually high. If anyone has recently built or is building a guesthouse, I would be very happy if you could share the information with us. I'm wondering where to start since there are so many vendors to look into and the prices vary so much. Thank you in advance.

Some people retire extremely poor, others save a million dollars in their 30s.
They may be strong, but they are still frustrated, so they assume they are looking good.

I mean, I have goals like
traveling with family and friends
getting together with everyone
spending happy time with my kids
looking forward to their growth
traveling in Japan with my Japanese family
pursuing my hobbies
going out to eat with my hobbies friends
I have a normal day to day life
I achieve small goals everyday
Traveling to the same place can be completely different depending on my age and
the people I go with
I can experience many things
just by spending time with different people
even just everyday life I have a lot of experiences <1366> Living far away or traveling is fun
but to enjoy the mundane everyday
may be the most difficult thing
at my age I think

if you have money you don't have to work
that is my goal.
I'm sorry if I'm wrong
I just want to move to a country where I can live cheaply and comfortably
because I have money, but I don't feel anything else.

early retirement with 100 million ?
500 million in total assets in my 40s is still not enough
My dream is to have enough disposable income to travel the world gracefully
I can achieve it with about 200 million in annual income

Nice to meet you. I have started a terrarium. ? It looks easy, but I don't really know how to do it. Also, do you have any recommendations on where I can buy plants and other items in LA? ? When I watch YouTube, I see that Japanese stores have a good selection. I wonder if there are specialty stores here ?.

I had no idea what a terrarium was, so I googled it and found that it is a thing that creates a super miniature natural world inside that glass aquarium.

I don't know where you can buy them because I'm not interested in them at all, but those glass aquariums are in pet stores that sell killifish and tropical fish. There is a large pet store near my house called Petco that sells tanks of various sizes and shapes. Is that soil special? I would use soil from my own garden, but looking online, it seems that this is not just any soil.

I am also very sensitive to sound, but I use regular soft foam. If that doesn't work, have you tried earplugs made of a soft material like clay that fits each ear shape ? Or how about noise cancelling earphones ? I like the Apple earplug type 3rd generation. There is a chance they may come off while sleeping, though.

PACIFIC DIAMOND near Ala Moana will buy it, but the price is determined by the weight of the gold, so you should ask for an estimate ? Even if it is from Tiffany, I think it depends on the rank of the diamond, but they will do the evaluation for free, so if you have a warranty card, you should bring it with you. If you have a warranty card, I think it would be a good idea to bring it along.

I have never had an estimate in Hawaii, but
when I went to Japan in January,
I brought it to a buy-back specialist at the mall.

I had outdated rings, one earring, and a worn out Vuitton wallet.
I asked them to quote me 20,000 yen for a piece of sushi.
I was surprised to find that it was 150,000 yen.
There was also a sapphire scrap stone in it, but the price of gold was high.

I decided to go to the family court by myself after the lawyer in charge of my debt collection request gave up on me.
Has anyone ever gone to family court to collect a debt in the same way ?
Does family court have a Japanese interpretation service agency ?
I don't want to hear any more about lawyer offices and lawyers (. It's a waste of money so it's out ! )

If you have been to family court for such a case and have used an interpreter or have tried to go to court on your own

In Japan, debt collectors and debt wagons are the same, and if the other party does not have the funds to pay, they will end up crying themselves to sleep.
There was a person who even had his house taken away from him in the past and his family had to leave for Japan. Sagishi's girlfriend still lives in this area

Before we went to court, we were advised to mediate to save the judge time and effort, and we did, but we were not satisfied. The judge asks loud and concise questions so that no one can mishear him, so I don't think he has a problem with English, but I think you can ask for an interpreter. I think the key is to make the documents easy for the judge to understand so that the judge will not misunderstand if the content is complicated and ask strange questions to Tobiyo. If you have a pledge of debt, it's easy. It usually takes five minutes. Once you get to court, you might find out what the judge recommends. If they don't show up, you automatically win.
