Sometimes there are people who stay in the U.S. for a long period of time and do not remove their Japanese resident card.
They are not illegal residents, but people with visas or green cards （ who may be American citizens ？ ）.
In that case, you will not have to continue to pay National Insurance and Resident Tax. In that case, I think I have to keep paying National Insurance and Resident's Tax (???), but does anyone know what the benefits are to not report moving abroad ？

Please help me.

You can always return to your country for treatment. You can get a pension in Japan. You have no income in Japan, so you have minimal expenses. Prescriptions are also cheaper in Japan. If you are renting a room and living here, don't say "anytime", just go back home You can get government assistance even though you have no income in Japan.
Don't be persistent, but think about how you can stabilize your life.

It is rude to tell these people that they can get government subsidies even though they have no income.

He is not a dandy. He is different from his older brothers.
The "datte" in "datte ni ikimai nai" is "datte" in "datte-o".
The word "datte" means to be vain, to adorn one's appearance.
It means to act flamboyantly, especially to attract attention.

"Not living in date" means not living in such a superficial or lax manner.
It is also used of "not being Date or drunken".
This "drunkenness" also means the same thing, to be fond of things.

Zoom is for communication using video, LINE is for communication using text, stamps, etc. （ LINE can also be used for video conversations ）, I think. I think that each of them is suited for different purposes, so it is a little difficult to compare them in terms of advantages ・ and disadvantages.
By the way, LINE requires all users to verify their identity with a cell phone number, but Zoom does not.

From what I saw, I thought IACE Travel was the cheapest, but the website seems to suggest buying online. But I would like to buy in person at the office to confirm some things, but I don't know the number of the office. One of the numbers on the web says that this service is no longer available, and the other one gives me guidance and says to call there if I want to speak to a representative directly.
Is it possible to go directly to the office and make a purchase ？
or do you have a travel agent you would recommend?

I'd like to add, I believe the fees are the same as IACE and JTB. Just because it's an online order mailed
doesn't mean the fee is higher, but the postage is. That's the only difference. If you compare the sites, you can see to some extent that the fee is about $10 for both.

Halo thank you very much for your very kindness ！
Yes. It's about the name and so on. I've been making a lot of mistakes lately (like forgetting to bring a present to a birthday party), and I'd like to have someone check my purchases if possible. If I try to use the rail pass and it doesn't work, my travel plans will be in trouble ！.

Yesterday I bought a Japan Rail Pass at HIS in Ala Moana SS.
I first tried to buy it online from IACE Travel, but when I tried to buy it together, I got an error message even though I wanted two tickets, one for me Japanese and one for my husband （ American ）. Maybe it's because we have different statuses ？ I decided not to apply for them separately because it's too much trouble. On that point, at HIS, the staff is right in front of you, so whether you are Japanese or a gaijin, they can make sure that your name is correct and you can make the purchase.
Like Halo, my passport has my American family name in parentheses, but it is slightly different from my green card, so I got a copy of my residence card from the consulate. They also confirmed this.
The amount was also one person ＄ 338. I didn't have to pay any fees or postage, so in the end it was probably cheaper than IACE Travel.
It was very convenient to buy the tickets right away because it was not crowded in the evening.

Thank you Koco, I will try to get a copy of the book.
I ended up buying mine last week at HIS!
A few days before that, the price dropped to $ 213 per person, so I thought it was worth the wait. I think IACE will add Sipping fee ！
and Handling fee $ 10.

I guess it depends on the type of work.

Japanese Pension Sending Fee Refunds, US Bank

For June 15, $ I received a
50 refund ($ 25x2) in about a week from US Bank, but
for August 15, today （ September 16, ） there is still no refund.

When I called US Bank's Japanese service on Aug. 25,
a woman with solid Japanese explained it to me politely.

She told me that
they are working on an automated program
for refunds, but until then it will be a manual process
which will take time.

He also said
that we will be notified in writing if the refund is cancelled.

Has anyone already received a refund for August 15
？

Thank you in advance.

Thank you very much for the information.
It was very helpful.

I have no one close to me who receives a pension from Japan
so I asked you here.

I just called US Bank's Japanese service
again and made a claim.

They made arrangements immediately.
I was told that
I could get the refund in a few days because of the procedure with the Japanese side.

If you are in a similar situation, I suggest you call
