$ I think it's a little over 850 per month, depending on the type of tax (you can pay a lot of tax at first and get a tax refund, or you can pay less tax at first and pay the shortfall later)

Also, 4 hours x 5days for the insurance is dangerous
. If you get sick, or you are late due to traffic, or you have to take a day off during off-peak season, depending on your occupation, you may be forced to work shorter hours, and if you do, you will lose your 20hrs and no insurance.
Unless you work full time, your hours are not guaranteed.

PS
Insurance is a BENEFIT, so whether it is required or not does not affect the hourly rate paid.

The Schwab account will be converted to an International Account and can be maintained after the GC waiver, but the investment choices seem to be very limited. Even if you can keep your bank account, US address is often required for Chase, etc. A Japanese tax ID is required for the W-8BEN, but this can be obtained and delivered after you return to your home country.

Even if you file a W-8BEN, a 1099 will be issued for Interest, Dividends, etc., which is subject to withholding and may reduce the amount you receive.
It seems that you are required to terminate your IRA or Pension, but if you leave it as is, you may be required to file a Tax Return as a Non-Resident if you are subject to withholding at the time of your retirement benefits. Some assets may be subject to Exit Tax, so it is necessary to consider whether to treat them before abandonment.

Additional Response. I found out that Alliant Credit Union is very good and opened an account immediately ！ If you open an account while you are in the US, you can continue to use it after you return to Japan, and authentication can be set to your e-mail address instead of your phone number （ Please check with them about this to be sure. Please check this yourself just to be sure. I confirmed this in a chat with a human representative ）.

Last week a friend of mine was in the exact same situation, he said he would buy it at Walmart for $58 and bring it back to Japan and sell it on Mercari. lol
He is also 2 years old and a booster seat is too small and illegal, so he still needs a car seat, and the cheapest car seat at Walmart is $ The cheapest car seat at Walmart was 57-58 ！ He said he could sell it for a lot of money in Japan and that he would take it home with him even though it would be luggage.

As a postscript,
If your husband lives alone in Hawaii, he will definitely need it when he comes back $ so I think it would be a good idea to buy it at Walmart at 58 and keep it.

Did you find someone who can lend you a car seat ？
$ I found one at Walmart It's a COSCO brand car seat, right? I bought a spare COSCO car seat for my child for when he/she is picked up in a friend's car, or vice versa, or when a friend is picked up in our car. It is lightweight, so I can pull my child by the hand with one hand and carry it with the other hand, and it is very convenient. You may need it when you come back to Hawaii in the future, so why don't you buy one for Hawaii and keep it in your husband's room?

There are a lot of travel YouTubers out there.
There are also a lot of people who go to places that are not listed in travel guides.
It's not about making money, but it's good if you enjoy yourself.
Only a handful of travel YouTubers who post high quality videos can make money.
I hate traveling, but I really like watching videos of someone traveling.
But there are only 1-2 YouTubers whose videos I watch on a regular basis.
The rest have become boring and I've unsubscribed from more and more channels.

There are many people who have done nothing wrong but come to me and make terribly harsh comments on my videos.
If you can ignore those comments and are mentally strong, posting videos is a good idea.
Many people have had their mental health hit by the internet, and a few months ago, one of my favorite travel YouTubers was in an uproar, so please be really careful...
Have fun!

I am currently staying in Japan.
It is easier to exchange money at vending machine like machines in town than to exchange money in Hawaii.

Or, I am a Central Pacific Bank user and can withdraw up to 100,000 yen a day at ATMs in post offices.
I checked the rate and it is a little better than the machine.
I don't recommend you to exchange money at the bank because of high commission.

There is a group on Facebook called Scenic San Pedro, but I didn't see any pictures of what looks like the first sunrise.
The group Photos of Long Beach has a picture of the sun that I took this morning, which had already risen quite a bit. There are clouds, but the weather is nice. You can see both of them in the public group.

I entered the country from LAX this July, 20 days before my GC expired. I applied for renewal in February and brought the letter with me, but when I entered the country, I asked the officer if I could have the extension letter. When I asked the officer if I needed an extension letter, he said "No, it's not expired, so you don't need it. I was told "No, it has not expired, so you don't need it.

Worst case scenario, you can have someone send the letter to Japan. It takes about a week to get it after you apply for it.

That's also great.

The long queue was so long that even the examiner didn't check the "details"

He just thought "OK, I have a card" and said "Yes, the next person is OK". I wonder if it was a "yes, the next one".

You have already completed the Online Application ？ First you apply online and then you get an Interview.

https://secure.ssa.gov/ossnap/public/adultOlder18


The company has proof of your eligibility to work, so you should have no problem getting hired without SS. it says to provide the employer with a receipt for the application for the SS number.　Maybe the reason they need the number now is to pay the first paycheck, but if you have a knowledgeable payroll department, you should be fine as long as you have the number by the first quarter payroll report.

When I stayed at the Sheraton in Waikiki last month, I asked if I could send my luggage and the hotel said send it to arrive 3 days before check-in or later. They asked me how big it was and what was in it and said if it was too big, they couldn't do it. I was told never to send it before 3 days before check-in.
This time of year,
the hotel is quite crowded for Christmas and New Year,
so it seems that it is difficult to keep your luggage. It would be difficult to keep your luggage, especially if you are not staying at the hotel yourself and you know someone who wants to leave his/her personal belongings after check-out, because it would be too personal and the hotel is not a warehouse.
I had to check in 3 days before check-in and there was a size limit ….

It has been 40+ years. I wonder if the immigration officer at the
airport will have any distrust if the photo on the
card is different from the person in front of him who submitted it, even though it is a great thing that does not need to be renewed.

I'm afraid I've lost the purpose of the response and the post.
As for the GC with no renewal, it is legal. You can check it on the Immigration website. So I have never had a problem with custom to enter from overseas including to/from Japan.

Double Kim Man, 70+, I agree with the part about the benefits of citizenship. A long time ago, citizenship was not a benefit and I was not particularly interested in it because I am not rich enough to vote, jury duty, and taxes at the multi-million level, but I honestly feel that the Trump administration's mandates regarding GC retention are a hassle ↪Lo_V162↩(sweat).

An "unexpired green card" is an older type of U.S. Permanent Resident Card issued before about 1989 （ I-551 ） that does not list an expiration date and is still valid in principle, but is highly recommended by the Citizenship and Immigration Services
USCIS ） to be updated with a
Form I-90 due to inconvenience in traveling and using certain services （ such as Global Entry Due to inconvenience when using Form I-90, it is strongly recommended by the USCIS （ USCIS ） that you update your card to the latest version with Form I-90.
If you do not update your card, you run the risk of longer identification times at the airport, card reading errors, and you may also need a Re-entry Permit （ Re-entry Permit ） for long-term stays abroad.

Are the passport photo and the 40+ year old Grin Card photo the same photo?

Uri,
Thank you again for your response. I would appreciate it if you could understand that my topic is not about GC without renewal, but about the future policy and its direction.
