I am having trouble with a tree in the apartment next door that is over my fence.

I live in an apartment building. The tree in the apartment building right next to my parking spot has grown to about the height of the third floor of the building and is covering my car. Leaves are piling up every day and bird droppings are getting on it and it gets dirty quickly even if I clean it. The paint is also damaged. I told the manager of our apartment building but he said there is nothing he can do about the neighbors. I told them that they should at least be able to trim the amount that is encroaching on ours, but they are not doing anything. Where do I go for help in this situation, DCBA, LAHD, etc.? Has anyone had a similar experience and solved the problem?

Yes, it is quite high. It is already taller than I am at the height of the fence. It looks like it's hanging from quite a bit higher than that. If I could do it myself, I would.
I'm not sure if I'm the right person to talk to the management next door ?. I want to complain as a renter, but it's hard to get through to them. 。。。。

> It should be the property owner/manager who does that negotiation, but they don't do it because it's too much trouble.

They shouldn't and won't negotiate.

In the U.S., if we have a problem with our own properties, we will move, but we tend not to get involved with other people's properties.

Well, you have to make a strong claim to the management next door yourself.

Since then, many people have helped me and provided me with more information than I had expected, and after much deliberation, I decided to share it with you.

The reason why I wanted to know about this was because a friend of mine used to live on the second floor and had to move to the upper floor because her baby was bitten by mosquitoes. As it turns out, there used to be a lot of problems because of the lack of management, but after a new management system was installed, the mosquitoes were completely gone. \But after the introduction of the new management system, it seems to have been improved enough, although it cannot be said that they are completely gone. It seems to be improved enough.

All of them seem to be able to live without being bothered by mosquitoes.

Thank you for your cooperation.

I was lucky enough to win the green card lottery on my second application last year, but I am still waiting for the interview notice after completing the biometrics ( fingerprinting ) on April 4 this year. I asked a friend of mine who won the lottery and he told me that he received the interview notice and the biometrics notice at about the same time, but I have not received the interview notice after almost a month … (;_;)
If anyone who has won the lottery can tell me when they received the interview notice, I would appreciate it! ! Also, if the interview schedule has been set, is it possible to confirm it online or something …?

I remember that there was quite a gap between biometrics and the interview.

In my case, my lawyer explained to me that I lost several weeks because the documents that were supposed to be delivered to the Los Angeles Legal Department were not easily passed on to the person in charge in the office. I think it is true because my lawyer accompanied me to the interview and complained to the legal department why the process was so slow. I know you are anxious because there are many circumstances, but I think you have to wait and see.
Congratulations for now !.

I and people I know use private sales and real estate ・ information boards, but there is not a lot of information here in Portland, and I was wondering if you could post on this board to learn more about Portland. My family is planning to visit Portland in the near future and I would like to know a lot about it.
I would enjoy it if you could post any information about deals, security, etc., like you did with the Portland Souvenirs topic, etc. that was posted before.

What advice do you have for him as he stands on the brink of no longer being able to continue playing baseball in the future? He won the Koshien championship in spring and summer in consecutive years, and was drafted first overall by the Hanshin team with a bang. Fujinami had won double-digit victories in three consecutive years since his rookie year and seemed to be on the way to becoming an ace, but suddenly he began to have trouble with his control of the ball. Fujinami's mentality was thought to be the main cause, and he decided to make a fresh start and challenge MLB this year.
In his first game in MLB, he had a great start, but after that, he was even more out of control than in NPB. To date, he has pitched in four games and has a horrendous 14.40 earned-run average.

I have heard that many internships make you work for an hourly wage and hours
that you decide on at the beginning, without any relation at all.
Also, I've heard that people enter the workplace with the intention of learning a job, but are made to do something completely unrelated, or
are left alone and given responsibility. I hear things like that.
The most common thing I hear is that there are no holidays. The most common thing I hear is that they don't have time off.
Before coming to Hawaii from Japan, you should always ask the people at your workplace if you can work less than 8 hours a day and have 2 days off a week ?

The other day, I wanted a delicious cake for my mother-in-law's birthday, so I got a whole shortcake from La palume D'or. The last time I had a shortcake was so long ago that I don't remember how many years ago, but I remember it was the best Japanese cake in Hawaii. But this time the cream was tasteless and the sponge was nonexistent. But it was my first time to try the shortcake here, so other cakes might be tasty.
I would like to know your favorite cake shops and types of cakes. By the way, I am not a cake person, but I really liked the cream of "Marion" in Shiroki-ya, which is no longer there, because it tasted just like in Japan.

They won't come to repair my apartment,..,

Problem / Need advice

About a few months ago, the outside gate door was broken down by a homeless person wandering around outside my apartment.

I notified the management company about it, and once after that, a contractor-like person showed up, got an estimate, and went away, but I have not heard from him since.

I contacted the management company and they said they are currently contacting the owner and waiting to hear from him, but it has been about a month.

So far, when I have asked them to repair my room several times, they have come rather quickly, but

apparently the owner changed a few months ago, and I have the impression that the response has changed drastically since then.

Is this kind of problem something that can be solved by talking to the city?

In order for an eighth grader to study in the U.S., he/she must follow the steps below to obtain a visa.

1. Obtain a Letter of Admission : To enroll in an American school, you must first obtain a letter of admission from the school. You can apply directly to your school or through a study abroad agent for a Letter of Admission.
In general, it is difficult for Japanese junior high school students to study at public junior high schools in the United States. Children of local residents are given priority in American public schools, and international students are permitted only in limited cases. In addition, in order to study in an American public school, students must reside in the school district. Therefore, Japanese junior high school students must enroll in a private school located outside of their school district to study in an American public school. If you wish to enroll in a private school, we recommend that you contact the school directly to find out more about enrollment procedures and required documents.

2. SEVIS Registration : International students in the U.S. must register with the Student Exchange Visitor Information and Management System ™ (SEVIS™). The study abroad school registers the student with SEVIS and enters the international student's information, the international student is automatically registered in SEVIS.

3. Obtaining Form I-20 : Once the Letter of Acceptance and SEVIS registration are complete, you will need to obtain an I-20 form from your study abroad school The I-20 form is one of the documents required for the international student's visa application.

4. Visa Application : Once you have obtained your I-20 form, you will need to apply for a visa at an American embassy or consulate. To apply for a visa, you will need your passport, Form I-20, visa application fee, and an appointment for a visa interview.

5. Visa Interview : A visa interview is required for all visa applications. During the interview, you will need to ask questions and provide detailed information about the visa application for international students.

These are the steps required for an eighth grade student to obtain a visa to study in the United States. You can obtain more detailed information from your study abroad agent or the school where you will be studying. It is also recommended that you seek professional advice on how long to apply for a U.S. visa and the details of the process, as there are many requirements.

An eighth grader is still a child who needs protection. A child who cannot do anything on his own.

He has to inform his parents of his wishes and get their approval before proceeding.

For a child to study in the U.S., the procedures between Japan and the U.S. are very difficult, and above all, a lot of money is needed.

You don't seem to understand even if you read the polite response of Mr. Renunciation in #4, and more importantly, you have no gratitude for Mr. Renunciation who took the trouble to respond to you on his own time.

First of all, "thank you", right?
