I was looking into insurance because I will lose my health insurance and was told that
the one I can get now would be Medical due to the loss of income due to Corona.
Since I am a Visa holder, I am not sure about medical and
I am worried that it will affect my future application for permanent residency.
I am also worried that not having insurance will cost me a penalty on my tax return.
I am sure there are other Visa holders like me in this Corona
What are you all doing about this ??

Did you have biometrics ?
A friend of mine in another state didn't seem to have corona until recently and used fingerprints and photos from the last 10 years.
Is biometrics common in Hawaii ??

We went through the renewal process right after the beginning of February.
Biometrics said they would contact us in 4-5 months when we had an appointment, so we kept waiting.
We finally heard from them last week and they said the end of July. It has been a long road for us.
Still 4 weeks to go until completion....
I am glad to see that the situation is improving, though I wonder if the people who applied first are being put off.

FYI koco53

I applied online 6/8.
I received two letters on 6/15, one ( I-797 ) says "this letter is valid for 12 months even if you don't receive your green card" and the other ( I-797C ) says "no biometrics required but no refund of fees It said, "No biometrics required, but no refund of fees". 
I checked the status online and it was "Card produced".
I received my green card successfully on 6/18.

I received my green card in 10 days after I applied.
I received my green card in 10 days after I applied, but it may be because I missed the expiration date by accident and applied after the expiration date.

Your information has been very helpful.
I guess the difference between applying in the same Hawaii and having biometrics with or without biometrics for a difference of a few months is the difference in the Corona Disaster. I was really relieved to know that even if I don't receive the card, the letter that will be mailed to me will be valid for 12 months.
Thank you very much for telling me ! ! koco53

I only received a notice of receipt of documents immediately.

Aoi, I don't care about cards and photographic evidence, let's show the source.
then the people who are saying all kinds of things won't be able to say anything.

If what you are saying is true, there should be an official page on the immigration website explaining that marriages with GC holders will be processed and the CG will be delivered in a few months.
Just post that URL, in English, and you'll have a shot.

But if there is no official site or page that publicly states such a thing, it is hard to convince anyone.

The GC may say the date of issue, but not the date of application, so even if you show it to them, they can't prove how long it took you to get that.

The lawyer will tell you those things thoroughly. If the lawyer you are using is not that polite, it is suspicious and you should ask a ton of questions. Usually they'll take your e-mails for free. Well, if you look into it, California is so blah, it's laughable 🤣.

Answer to your questions.

1 ) If the payment was made in Japan, is it illegal for US income tax purposes?
So even if you receive income in your Japanese account, you can transfer it to your U.S. account
and report it as self-employment income in dollars, which is not illegal under the Income Tax Law
.

For tax reporting purposes, there is no problem if you report
whether the payment was made overseas or in the US.

2 ) Status in the U.S.

If you are currently applying for a green card, you must have a valid visa to work in the U.S.
when you export. Otherwise, you will be illegally
working and earning income.

In the above case, the exporter ( in the U.S. ) will have no income tax problem if the salary is reported as
personal business income.

there is no mention anywhere that a translation of the family register is required. I don't know why they need foreign untranslated documents in the first place.

I asked my lawyer to renew my green card.

When I asked my lawyer, the renewal application was not online but by mailing documents to USCIS.

The current address on the application is my own address, but the mailing address is the attorney's office, so the receipt number and fingerprinting notice will be sent to the attorney's office.
My attorney will contact me to let me know when it arrives.

The renewed green card will also be delivered to the attorney's office, and they will mail it to your home by EMS when it arrives.
Or you can go to the attorney's office to pick it up.

(You can check the progress from the USCIS website with the receipt number. )

It may vary depending on the attorney you ask, but that was my experience in my case.

With this current corona disaster, it may take even longer if the renewal application is mailed, so you may want to ask if it is possible to apply for renewal online even when going through a lawyer ?.

I applied by mail to USCIS on 12/26/2020.
I did it myself, without an attorney.

The process to get the card was almost the same as #3 Yacht, but I did everything by myself without an attorney.
It took more than a month to receive the receipt notice, but I was able to check the status on the USCIS website after receiving it.
At first, I was told that it would take 5 months to get my fingerprints taken ( Next step ) But after a while, I was told "No fingerprints taken, you can use your previous one"
As a result, I received my new green card in the mail at the end of March. No fingerprinting, but no refund of the "fingerprinting fee" paid at the time of application.

According to the USCIS website information, due to the Corona disaster, the renewal process is taking a lot of time, so
a statement has been added to the receipt noteice from January 2021, stating "During the renewal process, the green card you are currently holding will expire one year after expiration. I have a receipt note for my case. In my case, I received two receipt notices, the first one was the normal one and the second one included the above extension.

I changed my SSN name in February. The Social Security Office was closed due to Corona, so I sent all the documents by mail.
You can find the required documents at the following URL. By the way, only original documents are accepted, not photocopies
https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-01981
You should call Honolulu office in advance and ask them about it, because the way of doing things may have changed.

For green card name change, submit I-90 for name change.
It costs full price, so currently $ 540 ( Biometrics included )

Scallop,
It took about less than 3 weeks.
The representative I spoke with on the phone said that the protocol is to let the mail sit for a few days after it arrives at the Social Security office before opening it and then proceed to examine the documents. Is this an anti-virus measure?

It was like a week and a half after the documents were sent, I received my passport and other documents back in the mail, and then a week and a half later my new SSN card was sent separately.
