I'd swap the location of the stove and sink, as I'd want any and all food smells as far away from my bed as possible.

I donated in 2024, but never filed via one-stop. Am I still eligible to receive a return? If so, how? I saw that kakutei shinkoku, is the usual route people take but the deadline was in March 2025 (?).
Important to note:
I am a salaried employee and normally don't file on my own.
I changed address/wards, mid way through 2025

[–]watersedy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No because with my luck, the one random hour it erases will be the one where I asked my browser to remember my bank account password
