I don't speak English very well, so I would appreciate it if someone who is familiar with car insurance could tell me more about it.

I am going back to Japan for a month and would like to lend my car to a friend who does not have one.
My insurance policy is in the name of my husband and myself. （ My husband has his own car ）

When I return to Japan, I have a one-day car insurance policy and we take turns driving when I make long driving trips with friends.
I wonder if there is such insurance for driving other people's cars in the U.S. ？
If you know of any such insurance, please advise.

If you are a working person, you must also have a car.

Thank you all for all of your input.

My friend moved from another state, about 5 hours by plane, so she doesn't have a car right now. He has not been able to get a car yet because he has not been here long and has been very busy with work. I have been going to dealers and looking for a car.

I will not lend you my car as my return date is coming up.

Thanks to everyone who commented ♪
Thank you very much.

Problem / Need advice

Thanks for taking a look.
I am relocating to Silicon Valley next year with my husband.
My husband has been there before me and has received a lot of support from local colleagues and neighbors
so I am planning to prepare a gift to thank him for that and to say hello to him.
My husband has told me that
・ cigarettes （ requests from colleagues ）
・ Japanese character stationery （ same as above ）
・ Japanese souvenirs （ Japanese towel etc ）
but are there any other things ！ that you were happy to receive?
Currently, I am thinking of
・ high-class soup stock or tea
・ sprinkles
・ saran wrap
・ source of hot spring water
・ Japanese or Western sweets （ things you can get at a department store Items that can be procured ）
・ Instant noodles （ May be hard to find locally, but not suitable as souvenirs ？ ）
・ Retort foods （ Same as above ）
etc.
We think the first step is the most important when greeting someone, so please let us know if you have any advice ！ or if you have any suggestions for the above items … that you think are not suitable.

Hello.

You are a wonderful wife to have prepared so many things for your husband. Some food items are not allowed, and people here are vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, and other organic oriented people Some amino acids in soup stock are not allowed, or meat extract in cup ramen noodles.
The sure thing is tea-based products and sweets.
Kit Kat and other green tea flavors are appreciated.
Other teas are also appreciated, and drip coffee is great because we don't have it here.

Stationery items also do not use pencils or erasers here （ just a squishy erase with a pen ）.
Maybe a cute notepad or masking tape would be nice.

？
I think they will be pleased with the luxury furikake, it doesn't take up much space and lasts a long time. ！
I think it would be good to have some delicious flavored nori (seaweed in a can), since we don't buy them here.

Just one thing. Saran wrap is usually available at Daiso.

Extreme care must be taken when it comes to food, as many items are prohibited from being brought into the country. Importation of anything of animal origin is prohibited. Even plant-derived items, such as seeds and items that may harbor insects, must be quarantined. Baked goods （ such as rice crackers, cookies, etc. ） do not seem to be a problem, but fresh confections may be a problem. （ Japanese confectionery stores can be found in Silicon Valley. ）
Japanese stationery seems to be appreciated because of its good quality. If the family has children （ Japanese ）, Japanese comic books, characters, DVDs, etc. would also be appreciated. If the recipient is an American, small Japanese souvenirs （ such as dolls, wallets, scarves, etc. ） are also likely to be appreciated.

Nice to meet you.
Just to be frank, I would like to take the practical test at the DMV in San Francisco, is there anyone who is kind enough to accompany me ？
I am thinking of 4/7 or 4/8 as my schedule.
We can provide a rental car.
We can pay you some compensation, or you can have a meal at a restaurant, etc.
I would appreciate it if you could contact me as soon as possible so that I can discuss this with my roommates and business associates.
Thank you very much.

I need to take a medical examination for a green card interview, and I would like to know if anyone knows of a place where I can get one at a reasonable price.
Also, I was wondering if anyone has taken their children to the interview ？

I would appreciate it if you could tell me how the interview went with your children.

Mahalo!

This is before Corona, but one of my family members had a medical checkup for GC application.
I think there might have been a cheaper place if I had looked for it more, but I wanted a place that spoke Japanese, so

I took it at Waikiki Medical Clininc.

Address ： 2222 Kalakaua Ave.#603 Honolulu, HI 96815

Room 603, 6th floor of T Galleria building in Waikiki.

No shots required $ I think it was less than 500.

I had one about 5 years ago …
I called around and the cheapest one I knew of at the time was kuhio walk in medical in Waikiki.
I remember it was about $360.

Maybe the price has changed, or there are cheaper places. There may be other places with lower price.

Um, NIU is also relatively inexpensive for PCR testing, so you might call and ask ！.

If you are choosing based on price, I think the best way to be sure is to call each case one by one and check the current price.
I think the important thing is to get a physical from an Authorized Doctor from USCIS.
https://my.uscis.gov/findadoctor
You can find the latest list here.

We recommend that you call all the clinics listed on the USCIS website to find out their fees.
The clinics in Waikiki and the ones where Japanese is spoken are very expensive because they include extra x-rays, etc.
The clinic in downtown Waikiki is less than half the price.

If anyone knows more about how to file G49
please tell me ？
I'm trying to file on the website
The first question has the following yes/no answer, but I'm not sure how to take it. In the first question, there is the following yes/no question.
"For this tax year, are the total payments made minus any refunds greater than zero?"
In G45, you report income and the associated fees have been paid, but here
it seems that If I have income and have already paid for it in G45, would the answer be no ？
Please help me.

If we build a factory in Mexico to make what we are making in China,
it would be convenient because we are connected by land.

If a factory is built in Mexico and employment is provided to Mexicans and people from Central and South America,
the number of people who go to the U.S. will decrease.

Ototto,

Certainly such a theory would hold true if one only looked at the map, but in reality there have been such moves in the past, including by Japanese manufacturers.

About 30 years ago, the now-defunct Sanyo Electric Co. started production of color TVs and small air conditioners by building a factory on the other side of the border. But then China emerged as the "world's factory" and the border business seems to have disappeared.

Now, I wonder what direction the world will take when this pandemic is completely over.

Even though China is rising and we have our eyes on them,
if we were making it in China, what we are doing and what we do don't mesh.
We need to think about getting out of China. Building a wall on the border will not reduce illegal immigration.
Now that $1.00 store items are now 25 cents on the dollar.

If it's not profitable to build it in the U.S. because of labor costs, etc.,
can't we come up with the idea of building it in Mexico?
