I definitely do not recommend buses on Honomala day. They are never on time. And if you are going to the airport, you will have to be on time for your flight.
Taxi is definitely the way to go, HANA Taxi can be reserved in advance and will be there waiting for you on time.

If you don't have any particular property division or custody disputes, you can usually go to court and do the paperwork on your own.
It is a hassle to make copies and all that, but we did it all ourselves because we didn't want to pay legal fees.
There is a competent concierge at the courthouse, so we took the documents there first and asked him to check for any mistakes, etc. The whole thing only cost us a little over $200. I see a lot of bog-standard divorces, so as long as you talk it out on your own, it is possible to get a divorce without an expensive lawyer.

Hello.
You can ask the investment company that manages that 401K directly. Chat or call them.
You can leave it as is or roll it over to another. You should check with your own life insurance agent.
They can give you a lot of advice.

When you turn 59.5 years old, you can withdraw 10% with no fee.

You can rollover your 401K, though.

What you need to ask your investment manager is if you will be penalized ？

You should ask your insurance agent yourself.

I am an asset manager myself, and I think it is best to invest in a way that suits you

My son is attending. He is in Elementary now.
If you have a Hawaiian pedigree, you can usually get in ！ not that much （ like Punahou or Iolani ） the odds are not that high ！
the atmosphere in the school is pretty laid back. The atmosphere in the school is quite laid back, which is typical of Hawaiians. （ Laughs ） It is good for my son, but
academically, I don't think you should have high expectations. I grew up in Japan, and from my point of view, the academics are not good enough, and
the teachers at the conferences don't give many pointers. It is a very Hawaiian school with children of Hawaiian heritage ！.

My husband is a KS interviewer lol so I can't go into details

-The school is dedicated to keeping the Hawaiian culture alive

Even kids who can express their own opinions about what they want Hawaii to be like in the future will be noticed

-The interview The judgment has already started as soon as the
They can tell if a child is restless or not

-They want to accept as many different children as possible
I don't think you need to worry about it
A fixed number of students per region are selected


those who want to improve their skills will have dedicated
teachers who will help them to achieve their goals.

Thank you all for your valuable comments.

I feel a little lighter now that you mentioned that "the odds are not that high if you have a Hawaiian pedigree". Also, your realistic stories about the atmosphere of school life and academic aspects were very helpful. Since I have a family member who teaches Hawaiian Studies, I feel that my child is naturally developing an interest and attachment to Hawaiian culture himself. I really agreed with what you said in the interview about the importance of having one's own opinion such as "what do you want the future of Hawaii to be like?

I would like to gradually increase the opportunities to experience Hawaiian culture in my daily life and watch over my children so that they can develop their own perspectives and ideas. The discussion about regional quotas and balance is also interesting and I will keep it in mind as a perspective when applying.

I would be happy to learn more from you.
Thank you for your continued support ！

I can't go into details, but I have a family member who runs a cram school for the Kamehameha entrance exam. According to the latest information, tuition will be completely waived starting in 2026, and graduates will be able to pay for college tuition as well.
My impression is that it is not so easy to pass the entrance exam, even though it is not as easy as Punahou or Iolani.

Thank you so much for sharing your detailed story.
This is the first time I heard about the full free tuition from 2026 and the support to the university, and once again I realized that it will be even more competitive in the future.

As you said, it is a different difficulty from Punahou and Iolani, and it is not an easy entrance exam. With this in mind, I will discuss again with my family about our future preparation. Actually, we are also looking into cram schools little by little, but we have not been able to find many that have the Kamehameha Kindergarten entrance exam in front of them, so we are not sure how to proceed.
I saw some Kamehameha names in the photos of successful applicants at Takahashi Juku, so I thought I would inquire about it, and I am wondering if there are many similarities with Iolani ・ Punahou-oriented preparation.

If you have any more advice, I would be happy to hear it.
Thank you so much for your valuable talk.

Please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you very much. By the way, I would like to leave my cell phone in Japan not only when I go back to Japan temporarily, but I would like to use it all the time in Japan for receiving authentication codes and such like.

#2 Mr. Resident in USA,

If you have a Japanese ID, you can buy it even if you live in USA. I chose Rakuten Mobile, which has the lowest monthly call charges.

Can I use my passport as a Japanese ID? I don't have any family in Japan, so I don't have an address where I can register.

I lived in Japan, so I have a renewed driver's license with a Japanese address.
Please check with your cell phone store to see if your Japanese passport will work as a Japanese ID.
I told them honestly when I bought my cell phone that I do not reside in Japan, so I do not receive any mail.
Nowadays, paperless is more appreciated.

Yes, I understand. Thank you. In this day and age, if you lose your parents' home in Japan, it is inconvenient in every way, including banking. I am very thankful for my parents' home.

It's not about me, I saw it on social networking sites and wondered if this wasn't illegal ？. I was working with an open mind. Thanks for the details.

Basically, it is impossible, but it is possible that if the company he is doing business with is located in Japan and he receives remuneration in Japan, he does not have to file an April 15 tax return for $ less than 10,000 per year, but for $ more than 10,000, there may be problems later on. I think there will be a problem later on.

Don't report a person just because you see him or her, but report him or her to an immigration agent when you know for sure that he or she earns more than $ 10,000, otherwise, you may be suspected and you may also incur a grudge against him or her.

TDI Used.
My memory is fading, but before the birth, ask your employer to prepare the forms for you to submit. The subsidy is for 4 weeks for a normal delivery and 6 weeks for a cesarean section. The amount of the subsidy is better than nothing, and it is about 70% or 80% of one month's salary, I think ？. I remember that it was after the delivery, not during the pregnancy, but after the delivery.
The maternity leave system varies from company to company, so I think it would be a good idea to discuss things with the company.

I have grandchildren now, so this is a long time ago, but I used TDI because my pregnancy was not progressing well and I was unable to work. My husband also used TDI to take care of me. He and his wife both took a leave of absence until they used up their TDI, I retired at the end of my TDI, and my husband returned to his former job. It helped me during my pregnancy, but I had an emergency C-section, so it really helped to have my husband there after the birth.

I recently used TDI.
I have my employer, nurse and doctor fill out the form as well. The nurse told me that if I didn't work until 38 weeks, I should work until 38 weeks, even if I had to reduce my hours just in case, because there have been cases where I was turned down.
Of course, if you have an emergency delivery before then, you will be paid for 6-8 weeks from then on. After the birth, if there was a problem, it could have been extended further.
The amount depends on your income, but I believe the weekly limit was about $ 800.
I think you had to have been working in Hawaii for a few months before submitting the application, and you had to be working at least 20 hours per week.
If it is a large company with a large number of people, I think they may have their own benefits as well.

Please take care of yourself during your pregnancy.

It is true that the infrastructure in the island country is weak. This time we also had Spectrum come and investigate the internet connection and found that there was a problem with the modem and the line. In the case of a problem, I still should have asked the company to investigate. I found it difficult to track down the cause just by testing the internet speed by myself. I'm glad to hear that it was surprisingly stable and the problem disappeared as a result.
