＃ But very occasionally there is no useful information ・ ・ ・.

The first post was when someone told me to go through the process

and I thought that there would be a lot of problems and the process would not go ahead.

Are you waiting for a Work Permit ？ I hear a lot of people say they got it right after applying for a GC.
With this, you would get a new expiration date for your SS.　

I think you can change the name on the license at a later date. Licenses ＜ generally can be renewed ＞ within 60 days of expiration, but there may be exceptions.

I think you can change the name on your license or SS by submitting a change of name form later. You could try Online if it's a bad idea.

Sorry if I didn't understand your question well.

If you have a W-2, you can go to IRS.com and choose a free tax return program that suits you.

If you are not sure, you may want to email the IRS and explain your situation and ask what kind of documentation will be required to prove that you were in Japan last year.
Even if you have not been in the U.S. for 6 months, if you have some income in the U.S., you will need to file a Tax Return.

If you do not do a Tax Return this year, you can do a Tax Return going back 2 － 3 years, but if you have a Green Card, you can only leave the US for 2 years ？ If you are in the US and not working, you do not need a Green Card. If I stay in the U.S. and don't work, I don't need a Green Card ？.

For a tax return of ＜ first year ＞ with GC income, the tax return treatment is completely different depending on the date of GC acquisition and the date of entry into the US.　This makes it very complicated to add Japanese income to your tax return and receive US benefits. I have sent you an email for more details, but I think you should ask a tax accountant who is familiar with Dual-Status.

＃ Tax Return is required if you have some income in the US even if you are not in the US for 6 months.

Green Card holders are required to file the same tax returns as US citizens no matter where they live in the world.

how did you enter the country, you will be considered a suspicious person.

＞ If you acquire foreign nationality before your Japanese passport expires
＞ you will have dual nationality until it expires, a simple idea.

Then, if an ordinary Japanese passport expires, he loses Japanese nationality ？
Passport expiration, possession and nationality have nothing to do with it.
There are many Japanese who will never have a passport for the rest of their lives.

I renewed my GC online on March 3, a week later I received the paper for the 2 year extension approval, and then on March 22 I received my new GC.

No fingerprints, no signatures, no re-taking of photos.

If I could get it so quickly, I would have been happy to go through the renewal process a little later since it was valid until August.

I don't know which shipping company you use, but
usps, fedex, and ups don't seem to allow alcoholic beverages.

You can contact OCS

If you can't, you can send wine or whisky as a gift
from a Japanese department store's website.

Payment can be conveniently made by credit card.

As you said, I was refused by the actual stores of
FedEx, USPS, and UPS because they are legally unable to ship alcoholic beverages from the US to Japan without a license to export them.

And ordering from a department store catalog. It didn't occur to me ！ ！ ！

I was thinking of just buying it here and sending it, but
I'll see if I can order the sake I want to send online in Japan.

Thank you very much for your kindness.

I had the same symptoms, frozen shoulder,
I got an injection at Urgent Care in Hawaii Kai and it went away in about 5 days, but it came back if I didn't move it, and the injection is good the first time, but it doesn't work after a few times, so be careful. Please be careful.
Take care.

I am so sorry to hear that you are still in pain after a month. We have a massage ？ bodywork ？ doctor called Kyoseido Therapy located by Kaimuki High School. I don't think insurance will be accepted, but the pain and symptoms that were not cured by Kaiser have been improved by going to this place. By the way, he is a Japanese doctor alone.

During the corona period, I suddenly could not raise my left arm, so I went to see Kaiser and was diagnosed with a frozen shoulder. I went to Kaiser Physical Therapy for a while, but it never got better, so I stopped going there.

Later, when my corona had settled down, I went to see an osteopath in Japan and was diagnosed with a supraspinatus rotator cuff injury. I went to the hospital every day for electric therapy, massage, and exercises using equipment, and I got a little better. One day at a super public bath, a Korean lady gave me a lymphatic massage as a service, and for the first time in two years, my left arm, which had not been able to come up for two years, came back to its normal position.

Now I have pain and numbness in my right arm, and when I saw Kaiser last week, I had an x-ray that day and a nerve test later that day. I was also told to get Physical Therapy so I made an appointment.

I have also had physical therapy and massage without insurance, but it sometimes made my symptoms worse, so if you have Kaiser insurance, why not see Kaiser first? They will refer you to the right department and doctor for your pain and symptoms.

Thank you all ！
I will try a few places.
I also consulted with a chiropractor in Kahala who does acupuncture, and the pain went down a little
yesterday.
I was told to wait and see for a few days because the muscle itself is already inflamed, so if the situation doesn't change after that, I will try the injections you mentioned. Thank you very much ！

I have multiple animals. It is always Animal clinic. They have a yard in the back where you can potty and they let you out several times a day. The doctor is also very good at surgery. I highly recommend it.

I am currently attending the school. What I appreciate most is that almost all of the teachers can understand Japanese. As a Japanese family, it is great to be able to communicate with the teachers, and my child enjoys going to the school without feeling any barrier of Japanese ・ or English. Whenever I talk to the teachers, I know that they truly care about my child. I think the tuition is a good deal when you look at the ratio of time they take care of your child.
The only drawback is the location. If it were a little closer to Town, it would be easier to attend.

Mine called me every six months to come in.
It is a Japanese doctor.
Thank you, but
blood tests, x-rays, and other expenses are quite expensive.
Rather than trying to find out what is wrong with me in the early stages,
I feel like he is trying to attract patients because of the decrease in patients due to the corona,

I took a chance and changed doctors.
He is a Japanese doctor.
I have not been contacted for an appointment.
But if you have a problem, he will see you remotely and quickly. I hope you find a doctor you like.

Usually, primary care doctors, gynecologists, dentists, and I make an appointment for the next year at the reception desk at the end of my visit. If it is not convenient for me because it is the next year, I can change it by phone or online (in the case of doctors in Queens, Kapiolani).
As for my daughter's pediatrician, I call and make an appointment around her birthday.
If it helps.

Since I don't get the contact, I have decided to set my birthday as the month of the inspection and do all the various checkups together in that month.

Annual checkups are not mandatory, so I think you need to manage your own appointments.

If you tell them that you are not satisfied with the customer service of your insurance and you want to change, they will find a doctor for you.

It depends on your insurance plan, so even if you want this doctor, it is impossible to change
if the doctor does not handle your insurance.
