Transferring Pension

I'm currently sorting through EVERYTHING I bought back from Japan with me, so you'll get all your new blogs soon. I came across some documents that I actually completed when I came back from Japan, which was to do with pensions. This took me a while to figure out because it was complicated. Would you like to know how to transfer your pension to you from Japan? People say you can't. The things is... you can.

This is an important topic and it would be great to have a how-to. But are you referring to the pension lump-sum withdrawal? I assisted a foreign resident leaving Japan, serving as his tax rep to send the remaining 20% of withheld tax. It takes a bit of effort and it was a while ago, so I don't remember the details.

Unfortunately I don't know the answer to this, but as it's something I'll most likely be doing at some point I'll be eagerly following along to see if anyone else knows the process.

What sakura apps / websites are you using in 2024?

What websites or Apps are you using to keep track of the bloom stages of cherry blossoms in 2024? I usually use a mix of Tenki.jp, Yahoo and Jorudan and another one that I have forgotten! (I delete them at the end of each season to free up space on my phone). I occasionally use the app from JMA, but I don't like its set up. Are there any other Apps or websites you recommend? TIA

What's in your toshikoshi soba?

What do you put in your toshikoshi soba? One year I sauteed some chicken and naganegi to start a broth augmented with tsuyu, cooked the soba separately, and served the broth with kamaboko slices.
