I was told I need a 1095-A for my tax return. I was insured with Covered California, but since the other day I have not been able to sign in to the Covered California site and have not been able to get the 1095-A … Is there any other way to get it besides getting Covered California ? on my tax return? Please let me know if anyone has used a 1095-A ! !

If you go there with the documents you have on hand now. If you can prepare this and that, bring them. You will be told.

Accounting firms are in season now and can't spend time with clients who don't have their paperwork in order.

When I submitted a Formal Complaint for harassment at work, the treatment got worse.
They made a PIP^(Performance Improvement Plan ) and they listed all kinds of unreasonable things.
One of them is that I used to wait at work for an hour or two after work until the traffic calmed down before leaving, but now I'm being told to leave as soon as I finish work. I'm not applying for overtime pay, and if I have any work left to do, I just do it while I'm waiting. I understand that HR is the enemy.
What is the best place to get help with retaliation at work ??

Not good. Showa-era Ototto lamented that everyone was not making enough effort to understand his opinions. I am really sorry. It seems that the only way to eliminate misunderstandings is to directly ask Ototsan himself. The fairest way is to give Ototsan himself a chance to explain himself. It is worthwhile to continue the exchange as if it were an exchange square.

Question. Working mothers ・ What do fathers do when their children are absent from school due to illness ?

Do you have a sitter or other service ? For example, if you suddenly find out your child is sick on the morning of school and need a sitter immediately, can you request a sitter on that day? ?

Also, what do you do when your child has a long break from school, such as spring break ・ summer break ・ Thanksgiving break ・ winter break ? Do you leave your child at a day care or summer camp? ?

I would like to work while my child is in school, but I am worried because I have no family or relatives to turn to when my child is sick.

Working mothers ・ I would appreciate any advice from fathers. Please do.

I don't work, so I don't have to worry if my child suddenly gets sick, but I think it is really hard for working families when a child is sick. Thanks to Corona, some people have been able to choose to work remotely, but I think it's tough to work while watching a sick child.

My friend said that she just needed to finish her work, so she would spend time with her child during the day and check on her health, and then work alone at night. He also said that his body was not up to the task. He said that he could take paid holidays, but that would mean less time off when he goes to Japan, so he prefers not to use it as much as possible.

Another friend said she can't take her work home with her, so she takes her vacation with pay. My family has no one to rely on and my work doesn't bring in that much income, so I am a full-time housewife. My friend has a solid career and said that staying at home is not an option. I kind of admire that. I think it's cool.

I am having trouble with a sudden outbreak of a large number of pimples on my nose, mouth, and chin about a month ago.

Does anyone know of a good dermatologist or a clinic that specializes in adult acne? I am in my early 40's and I think it may have something to do with hormones such as menopause.

If anyone has any information, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Good evening.
I suddenly got boils on my legs and I showed my home doctor
a picture of them and he said they were bed bugs.
I was really surprised because it was my first time and I got rid of the bed bug and
it went away immediately with steroid ointment.

It looked like a pimple and it happened so suddenly
I thought maybe it was the same thing.

I searched around and found that they are often found in beds in both Japan and the US, so
be careful.

Thanks for your reply.
Is it a bed bug ! I hadn't thought of that idea. I have an image that bedbugs tend to bite soft parts of the body and if they bite you, they itch enough to scratch you, but I don't itch and I don't see any bite marks on my body. By the way, I also looked at the bed, but could not find any bugs. However, I thought I would try applying the steroid ointment I have once. Thank you for sharing your precious experience.

When I was in my late twenties, I started to get acne around my chin due to hormonal imbalance. ( At that time I was living in Japan and had irregular menstruation and visited a Japanese doctor. ) A hormone test showed a high male hormone level, and the doctor explained to me that when a woman's male hormone level increases, the amount of sebum increases in areas where men grow beards, such as around the chin and mouth, making it easier for acne to appear. After that, I tried various skin care products, but they had no effect at all. When I started taking pills, my acne completely disappeared. I have heard that the pill is not recommended for people in their 40s because the risk of blood clots increases, so I am not sure if the pill would be a good solution for you, sakura. However, since you seem to think that the acne is caused by hormones, I think it would be better to see a gynecologist instead of a dermatologist. I wish you a speedy recovery.

I know.

I had it done about 5 years ago at my accountant's place and received an additional tax letter for about $4000.
I went to the accountant with the letter and he told me not to pay it
He filed an amended return without paying any additional money and I got about $1000 back.
I remember buying cream puffs to thank him for the $1000 or so I got back.

Since there seems to be no information from anyone

In the U.S., where demand for cars is high, "leasing" is more popular than in Japan. Leasing a car, which is also common in Hawaii, is a system similar to renting a car for a long period of time, where you only pay for the depreciation, or the period of time you lease the car within the price of that car.

The lease term is usually 3 to 5 years, depending on how long you plan to stay in Hawaii as an exchange student.

You will need a driver's license, SSN ( Social Security Number ), and credit history in the U.S. You are also required to have insurance. Insurance is also required. There are agencies in Honolulu that can help you purchase insurance for Japanese people.

Another is a car share called HUI.

To car share,
first create an account on their website,
reservations are made through the app ( free )

・ 19 years or older with a US license ・ 25 years old or older with international driver's license
・ 18 months or more since obtaining driver's license
Less than 3 minor violations within 18 months

・ No serious violations in the past 3 years

Insurance and gasoline included

$12.00 per hour
$125.00 per day

You can rent a car at Ala Moana, airport, Kaimuki, Waikiki, etc.

rak,

Yes ~, then you may have done all you can.
As I mentioned before, if your router has LEDs, you may be able to get some idea of what is going on by looking at the blinking LEDs. It would also be useful to explain the situation to the provider.

It is also possible that there is an internet outage all around your home
In that case, you will get a good WiFi signal on your phone or PC ( but no internet connection ).

It's not the weather. It's just a system problem.

If you don't update your system, it will become unusable one day.

The TV screen, email, etc. will tell you that the Internet will be unavailable for
this time on this day because of the update. You will receive a message saying
.

Maybe the update did not work.

Weather will not cause equipment malfunction.

All are system problems.
