Immigration Carry Requirements
- U.S. Immigration Law （ INA § 264Com ） requires foreign nationals to carry their registration （ or green card ） with them at all times, and violating this requirement is a misdemeanor （. misdemeanor ）.
- In practice, it is rare that this provision is actively enforced, but in situations where ICE is involved, I have seen instances where the inability to immediately prove residency status has led to wrongful detention.

Possibility of Proving Identity with Real ID
- Real ID-enabled driver's licenses are reliable in certain situations, as they can be used by TSA at airports, etc., as federally recognized identification.
- However, even with Real ID, "proof of residency" may not be sufficient, especially for ICE duties where a dedicated document （ proof of visa, I-94, GC, etc. ） may be required.

Practical Risks and Countermeasures
- One measure to reduce the risk of not carrying is to always carry a photocopy or photo, even if it is not the original, but you may be legally required to present it in original form.
- Especially against the background of the recent increase in the number of cases of legal residents being detained for misidentification, it makes sense to be cautious and "carry at all times just in case" as a form of self-protection.

Thank you all for your advice.
I also read Mr. Shoteen's post on the information board.
I guess I have to carry my original card
although there is still a risk of losing it.
I will keep a copy in case I lose it.

I wanted to support them because they didn't sell well, but
Some days there was a lot of dark green tea powder but almost no sweet potato,
On the other hand, there was a lot of sweet potato but not much green tea powder, and somehow the taste was not consistent 😢
They didn't look good and didn't look delicious. It might have been better if they had small cups for tasting.

I buy it at Cosco.
Gold Standard, 5.5 lb. packs are $ 56
sometimes on sale $ about 45.
But only vanilla and chocolate are available.
You can buy the other series from Cosco mail order, but you have to pay for shipping.
but I think it is cheaper than buying elsewhere.

Thanks for the reply.
Since it is US news, I copied it as it is in English, but
some parts are not correct in Japanese because it is automatically translated in BibiNavi.

Yes, it is.
Who knows how high prices will be when I retire in a few decades
?
Anyway, make money while you are healthy. Plus, I think I should make various sources of income.

FYI, families who moved from Hawaii to the mainland during the Corona were also renting on the mainland.
Prices have gone up on the mainland as well, so we can no longer afford to raise 3 kids and now live
in my parents house in Hawaii for crying out loud. We were able to do this because we were local.
People who were buying houses on the mainland at the same time, over 5 years after Corona, they went up so much that they sold for 1.5 times what they paid.
There are no houses in the US. Such a difference in just 5 years. And it looks like it went up 4 times in Okinawa in another topi.
Depending on location, it is better to buy real estate if you can get a loan.

There is also the option of life insurance for future planning.

I can't go into too much detail here, but I think life insurance and real estate will still be important.

I don't know about the price of real estate because it depends on the situation, but I think the U.S. economy will slow down
in late 2025 to 2026, and if that happens, the price of real estate will go down.

If you have real estate for sale, why do you want to sell it ？ and ask the real estate agent, and if it is urgent, it is possible to buy it
. There is no need to buy the property at the asking price. You can also buy real estate that has been on the market for a long time. I'm sure Real Estate Agent will get angry if I
Post such a thing.

I, too, have life insurance. I am not a life insurance and real estate agent.
How to survive in the U.S. I have done a lot of research.

I also have experience in buying and selling real estate, and I always have them negotiate every time. I have never bought at list price.
It is important to choose an agent who is a good negotiator.

I have lived on the mainland for 25 years. I have moved to the East Coast, West Coast, Southwest, and have real estate in Hawaii, but I don't think you understand the significance of this data at all. First of all, unlike Japan, the US is a country where income and spending levels can be several times different in different areas. For example, in Silicon Valley and Manhattan, it is not unusual for an average salary to exceed $300,000. In the Midwest, on the other hand, many workers are employed in factories and farms, where salaries of around $50,000 are common. Naturally, real estate prices also vary widely. When changing jobs, it is essential to use the Relocation Calculator or the Salary Calculator to find out the salary and rent level in the area where you will be working. The same $300,000 job offer can mean very different things depending on where you live.

Also, a significant number of Americans are downsizing and relocating when they retire. If you are an owner of an expensive home on the East or West Coast, it is a fairly common pattern to sell your home and move to a retirement community in Florida or Arizona. In this case, the money needed for retirement that is being offered is useful information. A homeowning businessman retiring on the East or West Coast will cash out 1 or 2 mil → $500,000 to acquire a retirement property ＆ Retirement fund cash out is normal.

Hawaii is special because there are many such wealthy mainlanders living in Hawaii for a few years, demand for vacation homes from wealthy Californians, etc. The biggest expense in retirement is housing, so housing costs driven up by these wealthy people have a big impact.

The way to survive in the U.S., is to work in areas with high salary levels and retire in areas with low salaries.

From LA, it is better to leave in the morning when the sun is fully up, since the road goes east.　The sunrise is quite dazzling.　Motel 6 has a microwave oven in the room.　Try not to eat too much dinner, etc. and take the rest home with you.　　
If you pitch in early and swim in the pool, you will sleep well at night.　　Snacks to pass the boredom should be well chewed.　It will wake you up.　　Japanese snacks are not easy to buy along the way, so bring extra.

A friend of my wife's stayed at a hotel on the way to move from California to Texas. A private U-Haul towed was stolen from the hotel parking lot while he was staying there
He said this is a common occurrence around Texas. Minimum security awareness such as security camera locations and handle locks may be necessary.

This is a truly shocking development: a video of Cudahy Vice Mayor Cynthia Gonzalez allegedly calling on gang members to fight an enforcement action by ICE （ Immigration and Customs Enforcement ） has been spreading on social media, causing quite a stir.

She made statements such as, "The biggest gang is coming into your territory, why are you silent?" and even mentioned real gang names such as 18th Street and Florencia 13, which was perceived as inciting violence. The city has distanced itself, saying that these are "personal opinions and not the city's position."
It remains to be seen if the FBI will launch an investigation.

As to whether even Gov. Newsom and Mayor Bass will face criminal charges in this case, there are no such reports at this time; it is true that Gonzalez has attended immigration policy events with them in the past, but that alone is unlikely to make him an accomplice However, it is unlikely that Gonzalez would be found to be complicit in this crime. Nevertheless, for an elected official to make such a statement is in itself a major breach of trust, and I think the "council members are idiots ？" indignation that TRUMP2025 feels is a natural sentiment for a resident to have.

If a Democratic President Newsom is elected in the next presidential election,
California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, which border Mexico, will
open their borders to protect illegal immigrants.
Welfare payments and medical care will be provided to illegal immigrants, so there will be no borders at all
and Americans will be left homeless and abandoned

It is often said, "If you are willing to die, you can do anything." I suggest you think about it a little differently ？
Why are you staying there so long ？
Get away from it and become lighter. to be more lighthearted.

That is a truly painful situation. The pain you are feeling is not something to be taken lightly. I understand your fear of someone telling you that you don't have a choice. Your feelings are valid and should not be ignored.

First of all, you don't have to go through this alone. If you feel you have no one to talk to right now, one way is to use anonymous counseling services. For example, there are organizations that support mental health in the U.S., such as Inochi no Denwa and NAMI （ National Alliance on Mental Illness ）. There are professionals available for free consultation, and putting your feelings into words may help you feel a little better. And you should not have to endure discrimination in the workplace either. You may be able to remedy the situation by talking to your company's human resources or HR department, the Department of Labor, or the "EEOC （ Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ）. What you have suffered is not a matter to be overlooked and you have legitimate rights. Even though it is painful right now, you are not alone. Your thoughts are valuable and you have the right to take care of yourself. First, try to do something, even something small, that you can do to be kind to yourself. For example, listening to your favorite music, drinking a warm drink, or taking a small rest may help you to change your mind a little.

Thank you all for your kind comments. I also received some kind messages.　It cheered me up to know that my voice was heard and returned by Japanese people living in the U.S. as well.　I thought I would review your comments from time to time and make a plan to escape with a mini-break, reopen a little, fight a little, use support groups from time to time, consider changing jobs a little, and so on.　I will do my best so that I can spend my life smiling and laughing five years from now.　 I spoke with HR and their superiors at work, but the organization was so close-knit that they let it slide lightly and pretended that the discrimination had never happened. Because of this situation, I was very shocked and wrote here the other day. It is hard to live as a minority in an organization.

I feel for you.
I too was discriminated against at work in an area with few Asians.
On top of that, I was harassed
by a black boss who accused me of discrimination and I became mentally ill and changed jobs.
(What's Black lives matter … You were the main bully in the workplace. It takes energy
to change jobs. Please
leave the workplace before you get trapped and hurt yourself.
