If it is furnished, I think beds are usually included.
If you search for furnished apartments, you can see if there is a bed or not in the pictures.
You should inquire about it, but ・ ・ ・

#62 Mr. Manikintan,

I entered and left Narita airport.

#65 Mr. Bokeh,

I can buy a ticket with my American passport; at the check-in counter at LAX, I showed my Japanese passport to get a boarding pass. ？ I think the person at the check-in counter knew I was buying a ticket with an American passport, but as soon as I showed him my Japanese passport, he issued me a boarding pass. Of course, I also had a fast track, so I prepared that with my Japanese passport and showed the blue color of my application at the check-in counter. But this is not really relevant to you, is it? My apologies.

You should not willingly violate the law.

Whenever I arrange a ticket, I always enter my passport number and visa status.
You mean they will let me issue a ticket and board the plane even if I give a different ID at the LAX counter?
I wonder how they check if the ticket buyer and the passenger are the same person ？ If they are different people, there could be a terrorist attack.

How can I leave the US and come back from Japan?

If I present my American passport at the check-in counter at the airport in Japan,
it may look suspicious because there is no entry record.

And vice versa, if I present my Japanese passport and it is not stamped with a visa for entry into the U.S.,
they may ask, "You don't have a visa for entry into the U.S.

I see, so there is a downside to having a maiden name (or an alias) in the passport. I was thinking of adding my maiden name when I renew my passport next time, but I will not do it.

I hope it's a last name issue, but
I know a guy who was sent to the other room with a top gangster because he has the same name （ alphabet ） and date of birth
and they always take him to the other room and ask to see his back I guess that's confirmation of something.

If you have a problem the next time you go and come back
ask the immigration officer what caused it and be prepared.

It seems to be taking a long time now. You mention below that it is taking
a long time to update.
You should go to the site and check your status.

I think the situation will change depending on whether you are applying from Japan or within the U.S.
I think it would be easier to comment if you had a brief current progress report.

The link below is to a green card applicant forum.

Then the procedure is in two stages, I-130 (petition) and I-485 (permanent resident application ）).
If next February will be 2 years, then
the I-130 has already been accepted and you are waiting for the I-485 interview?

Currently, the waiting time for I-485 in Honolulu is
24.5 months and 80% processed, right?
https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

If I understand correctly, if you are married to a green card holder, the I-485 should be filed after the
I-130 is accepted.
Based on the information above, 80% of people are processed in about 2 years from the date the I-485 is filed.

If next February is two years from the filing of the I-485, then the goal may be close.
Conversely, if the two years includes the I-130 processing period, we may wait another year or so.

One more thing, is Aoi-san in Japan now ？
In that case, the I-485 is not processed in the US, but through the US Embassy
・ Consulate in Japan, so
the processing time will be different.

Yes, once the I-130 is approved by USCIS, the case is sent to the National Visa Center (NVC) at the Department of State, where the NVC coordinates the schedule with the U.S. Embassy in Japan, and after an interview at the Embassy, the immigrant visa is issued. Once it is confirmed that you entered the U.S. on that immigrant visa, a green card will be sent to your registered address after you enter the country.

The immigrant visa application form is the DS-260, and once NVC processes Aoi's case, it will begin the process of paying the application fee and processing the DS-260. Please refer to the following links for more information.

Back to the main topic, the processing time is
USCIS reviews the I-130,
NVC reviews the case,
DS-260 application to interview,
and the processing speed depends on how busy each department is. The speed will vary depending on the busyness of each department.
It would be easier to compare your time with others if we know where you are in this process.

A woman of that age is sure to be particular and
have a certain amount of everything.
If you think about the possibility of returning or exchanging what you sent
(in the US, after Christmas, people line up to return or exchange their gifts)
Why not just send a gift card of your favorite brand with some chocolates ？
$? From 100 to $ 300, that would be more appreciated.

I have made and given them to friends and family at a store in Pearlridge called memory block and they love them.
You can use any photo or drawing you have of your memories.
They print on a wooden block, it takes about 10 minutes and they wrap it for you.

They seem to come in different sizes and at different prices …
Have a look if you are interested.

I get my oil changed in a corner of the Aina Haina Shopping Center. I make an appointment and the work is completed in an hour and I shop at Foodland.

Thank you very much for sharing this information.
It would be very convenient if Honolulu had a place to change oil in a shopping center
as well.

Just this morning I had an oil change at the Nissan dealership ≪King Windward Nissan∩.
I had a 7:20 appointment time and finished with a free car wash at 9:00.
There is free coffee in the waiting room.

But the price has gone up a gazillion dollars, it used to be less than $40, but this time it was almost $60.

For your information.

There's an oil change place called "Jiffy Lube" at University City, South Beretania Street, next to Burger King.
It is drive-through style and you don't even have to get out of your car.
