Has anyone started applying for a green card during the OPT period? This is an application for permanent residence through marriage to an American citizen. I have a few questions and thought I would post here to share some information. For those of you who have recently started the application process, is it still too late in the process ？ and is there any risk of returning to Japan before starting the application ？?

Hello
The temperature in San Francisco fluctuates wildly, and although I naturally wear summer clothes, I can't stay outside at night in the same attire. Also, it can get very cold depending on the day, and I've even seen people wearing wool coats.

Tell us anything you would like to know about life in Cupertino or Sunnyvale

We are currently looking for a place to live and are considering the Cupertino and Sunnyvale area.

I have the impression that it is a good place to work and make friends, but
How do you feel about living here ？

Any information would be appreciated. Any information would be appreciated.


My hobbies are tennis and knitting, and I enjoy playing tennis and making stuffed animals with my friends.

As for my job, I hope to work for an IT company.

Thank you very much for your time.

I live in Sunnyvale.
There are many beautiful parks, with Cupertino next door. There is also a lot of playground equipment for children. Of course, there are tennis courts.
For knitting, Joann, michael is nearby.
Marukai and other supermarkets are easily accessible, and the Saturday farmer's market is fun.
The garbage separation is not very tolerant or there are a lot of non-recyclable items, which I think is a waste of money. It is relatively quiet and safe, but there are some families who sometimes play loud music.

Hi, I am a student living in Cupertino. The area around here is home to people of various ethnic backgrounds, and there are many different supermarkets. I think it is very comfortable to live here because there are relatively many Japanese supermarkets, Chinese and Korean supermarkets, and restaurants in the area. I also think it is relatively safe and secure.
As I do not have a car, it is difficult for me to go out for fun, and I sometimes feel that it is boring. The tennis court in front of Dianza College is used by many people every day, and I am sure you will make friends easily.

Do you know of any facebook communities ？ I think if you search for Ushinenkai in the Bay Area, it will come up, if not, please let me know and I will invite you. Also, if you are in the Mountain View area, Cuesta Park is a great place for small children. \cH000000}

LEGO blocks are cute and the quality is pretty good ！ ！
The erasers in various shapes are also unique to Japan and kids collect them.

Daiso goods are, after all, useful for keeping things organized. There are just the right size when you need a little container.

Which passport information should I register for a plane ticket for a temporary return to Japan with a child of dual nationality ？ ？

Please tell me how to do this when buying one way instead of round trip.
① USA → Japan booked with US passport
Japan → USA booked with Japanese passport
② Both booked with US passport
③ Both booked with Japanese passport

No middle name for the child, both have the same name.
Thank you very much ！

Use the passport of the country you are entering.
If from the U.S. to Japan, use a Japanese passport
If from Japan to the U.S., use an American passport

I have yet to bring my own cup.
If I bring it, does it have to be a cup sold at Starbucks ？
If not, there is a size issue.

I believe you get a 10 cent discount if you bring your own cup ！
I heard that since Corona they have banned the use of your own cup, but they recently reintroduced it.

If I don't tell them "I have my own cup" when it's time to order, I won't make it in time. Can you order your own cup at the drive-thru ？?

I have completed the transfer-out procedures in Japan, but I hold Japanese stocks in a Japanese securities account.
I would like to sell these shares, but my brokerage firm advised me to file a tax return on the gain from the sale in the US.
When I file TAX, should I calculate and report the tax from the gain on sale by myself ？
Please let me know if you know anything about this.
