I am completely used to living without masks, but I see that most people in Japan still wear masks. I will be returning to Japan temporarily soon, so I will prepare masks for the whole family in my baggage.

I returned to Honolulu today after two weeks in Japan. I was frequently traveling by train from Kanagawa Prefecture to Tokyo and back, but I did not wear a mask even once.
It was a comfortable temporary return to Japan without anyone giving me a white eye.

I am currently in Japan.
It depends on the area, but as of early June, the mask rate is 50% in Fukuoka and Osaka. My family was vaccinated in April and we are wearing no masks in Japan. We have not had any trouble in Genjide.

It is not obligatory, so you don't have to think too much about it.

People are people, and you should wear it according to your judgment at the time, the small space and your own physical condition.

It seems that different areas have different rates of wearing masks. I returned to Japan last week, and in the area where my parents live, everyone is still wearing masks, and I don't see any people without masks in stores. I bought a mask at a drugstore and have been wearing it for a while.

Under the U.S.-Japan Social Security Agreement, those who have worked in the U.S. for more than 1 ． 5 years may total their U.S.-Japan enrollment periods. （ See below ）
http://usa.yoshimura-sr.com/index.php?%E5%8F%97%E7%B5%A6%E6%89%8B%E7%B6%9A%E3%81%A8%E3%81%AF#n9fbbde0
It will depend on whether you and your husband will be working in Japan or the U.S., and whether you will retire in Japan or the U.S., and whether you will receive a pension from the U.S. or Japan. In my case, I worked in Japan for more than 10 years and paid voluntary National Pension Insurance contributions until the pensionable age. I also worked in the U.S. for more than 10 years to qualify for the pension, so I applied for both the Japanese and U.S. pensions separately and received both the Japanese and U.S. pensions without totaling them. The specific amount of the pension will be calculated according to each individual's circumstances, so I suggest that you consult with the pension office in Japan or the U.S., depending on which has more weight in your Japanese or U.S. pension. The relevant Japanese pension office is below. Also, I would like to mention a reference site.

We understand that the intent of your question is to confirm whether you can receive a
pension in the US or Japan if you have been making pension payments for a total of 10 years in Japan and the US.
Please see the following excerpt for the answer.

"The "U.S.-Japan Social Security Agreement" was signed in 2005. The U.S.-Japan Social Security Agreement is that if the minimum enrollment period for pension benefits in one country is not met,
the enrollment period in the pension system of the other country can be counted.
For example, before the agreement was signed, if you had seven years of participation in the U.S. pension system and three years in the Japanese pension system, you could not receive a pension from either country
because you did not meet the eligibility requirements in each country. However,
after the agreement was signed, they could receive the U.S. pension for 10 years by adding three years of Japanese pension to the U.S. pension."

As you can see from this explanation, if the total number of years in the U.S. and Japan exceeds 10 years, you can receive
pensions in both countries.

However, the procedure to receive this in both Japan and the U.S. is very time-consuming to process, unlike the understanding of this treaty.
Processing the pension in Japan also involves quite a bit of paperwork and other documents when applying, and anyway, the Pension Service requires many
application forms, and the process is so tedious that a proxy, such as a relative in Japan, is needed.
Furthermore, applying for Social Security benefits in the U.S. is also not that much
hassle if you have 10 years of credit, and can be processed by applying on the web or by bringing the application form and proof of identity
to the Social Security office However, if you do not have
10 years of credit and you are combining your pension with a pension from outside the U.S.,
how you prove it
depends greatly on the person in charge of the Social Security office.

Simply put, it is beyond imagination how to prove and convince the person in charge that your record is the same as someone who worked in Japan for 7 years and paid into the pension system and who has only
paid into US Social Security for 3 years.

In addition, there are rules that reduce the amount of the pension in the US if you receive a pension in Japan or the US,
and even with that much hassle, the amount you pay for 3 years of Social Security in the US
will probably be disappointingly I think you can assume that it will be a very small amount.

Therefore, while it is possible to receive Social Security benefits under the regulations, the individual process can be quite
time-consuming and, simply put, not worth it.

Please note that your questions on the bulletin board are for reference only, and if you actually take action, please take
advice from experts and others so as not to waste time and effort.

Speaking from experience, it takes time anyway, and even if you are eligible to receive benefits in Japan and the U.S.,
you will be required to send a "status report" every year, which is a notarial certificate to prove that you are alive,
and also once every three years, an IRS tax certificate, Form 6166
such as sending Form 6166, which is an annual process.

And last but not least,
the amount of money you will receive will not be enough to support your lifestyle. Please understand.

Thank you SJDummy for your reply.
I will take the time to look at the two sites and try to understand them.
The pension system is a bit complicated and I have not looked at it properly, so I will have to study it carefully.
Thank you tax man

Assuming a weight of 15 kg, USPS comes out to about $ 200, Yamato International Takkyubin $ 150 （ ） not including fuel surcharge, Jetpack $ 120 （ ） not including fuel surcharge, FEDEX $ 687. 687 came out to be 687. In my experience, Yamato seems to be relatively fast and reliable; USPS is not so reliable and unreliable with their estimated dates. I have never used Nittsu or FEDEX.

I have hired a detective in Japan, but not in the U.S., so this is not an answer regarding cheating investigations and entertainment agencies, but you know that if you have been married to a U.S. military husband for more than 10 years, the mri wife is entitled to receive pension and other benefits after the divorce. But if your husband's rank is reduced or he is dishonorably discharged because of your accusing him to the military, your benefits from the military will also be reduced. You will not gain anything by accusing your husband of cheating on you with the military out of spite. There are many benefits for Miri wives and children with U.S. military husbands, including health insurance and educational benefits. I think it would be smarter to do your research on marriages with US military husbands and if you are divorcing, act in a way that will allow you to have a secure life after the divorce, including the division of marital property such as TSP.

In Hawaii, 60% of international marriages （ divorce within 5 years. The divorce rate between a Japanese wife and her American Caucasian husband within 5 years is 80% in the U.S. mainland and 90% in Hawaii.

From this rate, it would be a miracle if the marriage lasts more than 10 years ？
You were prepared for this when you chose to marry an American ？.
