Your concern is valid. Even if you are a Green Card （ Permanent Resident ） holder, there is no chance that you will be denied by the immigration authorities. The following are some of the most common reasons for denial of entry into Japan. Main reasons for denial of entry
Criminal record

Especially "immoral crimes （ CIMT ）" and drug-related crimes are likely to make you ineligible for entry.

A fine, even if suspended, may be considered a "conviction". If you have a record of illegal presence

overstaying （ or overstaying ） or working illegally in the past, this may be a problem for immigration officials. In particular, if you have a history of entering the country under ESTA, please be careful when declaring the length and purpose of your stay.

I returned home in the third week of June, one month before my GC was due to expire and in the process of being renewed. I have no criminal record, but I have 4 ・ 5 traffic violations in my 20 years in the US. I brought the renewal application with me, but was told that I did not need it because my GC had not expired. They complimented me on how the Japanese organize everything and ended with a "Welcome Back" with almost no questions.

I think people who get stuck with immigration in the first place will get stuck even without the Trump administration.

＞ I was able to call a Japanese landline from the Tello app while connected to Wi-Fi with a Tello SIM card in my phone （ The US number is displayed to the receiver ）.
This app only works for making calls, but I think it is useful in its own way.

You say you can call a landline using the Tello app, but does that mean you can do something like Skype without incurring extra charges ？
*Landline calls from any app usually incur extra charges.

Or is this a landline call from the U.S. to Japan? ？
If so, you should be aware of the international charges if they call you.

＞ On the other hand, Tello said that it supports Wi-Fi calling, but I could not turn on the Wi-Fi calling feature on my Android phone.
I am not familiar with the Wi-Fi calling feature to begin with, so I don't know exactly what it should have been able to do, but （ for example, it can receive calls and texts from the US ）.

Wifi Calling is not possible on some phone models.
I used Wifi Calling on my trip to Europe with Mint carrier, but Wifi Calling was necessary because sometimes
authorization codes are sent to US phone numbers, for example, when making a large purchase with a credit card.
*Some stores require an authorization code even if you contact your credit card company in advance with your travel itinerary.

＞ I plan to use the app with a low-cost data SIM card during my stay in Japan, but I will share my test as soon as I test whether I can call a landline phone in Japan from the above Tello app even without a SIM card in Tello.

There is no way to do this.


Thank you for sharing so much information.

Since Tello's calling time was used, there was no additional charge. I have not purchased Tello credits to call Japanese cell phones. （ I have not purchased Tello credits. ）

> Or is this an international call from the US to Japan? ？
> If so, you'll have to be careful because you'll be charged international rates if they call you.
The number displayed on the landline was 1808-xxx-xxxx, so I think it is treated as an international call.
I saw this page and wondered if I had to pay a fee to receive international calls in Japan ？ Then I wondered if I had been paying my parents a lot ？ I googled it, but
It seems that it is free to receive international calls in Japan. I was relieved.

> Wifi Calling is not available on some phone models. > Wifi Calling is not available for some phones.
This was exactly my case. My Motorola model says that Wi-Fi Calling is not available in Tello. I thought I could use Wi-Fi Calling while I was in Hawaii because I could turn it on, but when I tried it in Japan, it was graded-out. .

> There is no way I can do this ，(^-^;

I can experiment tomorrow, so I'll give it a try if it doesn't work.

Thank you for your detailed explanation.

＞ Since Tello's calling time was used, there is no extra charge. （ I have never purchased Tello credit. ）

Since you are making an international call from the US to Japan, you are using the purchased data.
When you go back to Japan, you may want to use Unlimited without hesitation.

＞ I saw this page and wondered if I had to pay a fee to receive international calls in Japan ？ Then I wondered if I had made my parents pay a lot ？ I googled it, but

Yes that's right. It means that there is no charge to the receiver, but the caller should be aware that there may be expensive international call charges.
Some callers may think that they do not have to pay international call charges even if their phone number is 1-808 because they are in Japan, so they need to pay attention to callers.

Currently, I receive calls from Hanacell's Japanese phone number and use Mint's international calls for outgoing calls.

Additional experiment for #26.
I was able to make a call from the Tello app to a Japanese landline even with a low-cost data communication SIM card in the phone, not a Tello SIM card.
I was able to make a call even with Wi-Fi turned off and only data communication.
I think it would be a great feature for me to be able to call a landline when I am out of the country, such as to contact my parents' house.

I know it's hard because the rent is expensive, but in the case of room-sharing
you can either rent from the owner, or someone else may rent the whole room and then ask for a share-mate.
In the latter case, that person may have a stronger say, and things may become more awkward
. I think it would be more stress-free if the people sharing the room are equal.

Waikiki is a big place, so it's hard to say.
Here are some conditions you should avoid.

Low-rise apartments ： Apartments with 4 or 5 floors, cheap but dangerous, you should avoid.

A place where there is no one on the street when you walk out the front door ： Definitely dangerous. Along the canal, for example.

Condos without security ： Dangerous because strange people may enter with you when you come home

Landlords demand cash payment ： Many financial troubles

Contacting recruitment, but they are slow to respond ： If you are not sure, please contact the recruitment department. The cause of the trouble because the landlords are loose

Places where there are no stores ： People are dangerous if the place is far from cafes and stores,

I once lived in Waikiki for 2 months with a room share offer. I jumped on it because it was cheap, but I couldn't stand the 6 month plan and left and lived in a different place. I was told to clean the room ！ in exchange for a lower price, so I lived there while cleaning, and I was ordered to do more cleaning, shopping, and many other things. In the end, I had no time for myself, so I decided it would be better to leave even at a lower price.

（ There is no problem at all to live permanently in ） Japan even if you have dual citizenship. （ Since you are Japanese ）
you can hold dual citizenship （ Japan and the US ） unless you apply to the authorities to renounce your Japanese citizenship, and there are many such people （ Japanese law does not recognize dual citizenship, but few people would be foolish enough to renounce their Japanese citizenship and they would not be penalized. ）
The problem is taxation.
As long as you have US citizenship, you are liable to pay taxes to the US on any income you generate, even if you live in another country. So there are a great many people who do not like this obligation and renounce their U.S. citizenship.

When you have income as a US citizen, does that mean you get Social Security

Conversely, if you do not receive SS and have no dollar income, does that mean
you have no tax liability in the US?

👇
Of course. And whether or not you have income, including a pension, after returning permanently to Japan, you are still obligated to file an annual return with the U.S. （ IRS IRS ）. So here's what I mean.

In countries like the U.S. that use taxation based on "country of birth ＝ place of birth ・ nationality," as long as you are a U.S. citizen, you must pay taxes to the U.S. on your worldwide income regardless of where in the world you live. Therefore, a "U.S. citizen × living in Japan" has the right to be taxed by either country. This is troubling for dual nationals who may be subject to double taxation

👇
U.S. citizens and permanent residents living in Japan are basically obligated to pay taxes in both Japan and the U.S., right? However, there are measures in place to prevent double taxation. （ Articles 17 and 18 of the U.S.-Japan Tax Treaty ）

1 ． Foreign Tax Credit ： Taxes paid in Japan can be credited against U.S. taxes.

2 ． Foreign Earned Income Credit ： If certain conditions are met, a portion of income earned in Japan can be excluded from U.S. taxation. It appears that these systems can be used to minimize the incidence of double taxation.

For U.S. citizens and permanent residents living in Japan, understanding both Japanese and U.S. tax returns is often complicated and difficult to understand. \You will probably want to consult with a professional tax advisor. ）
