# Some say that if is going to say Kiddush for the second day of Yom Tov early before nightfall, one is permitted and should light the candles before Kiddush so that one can see the candles during Kiddush. <Ref>Rav Poalim 4:23 and Ben Ish Chai (Bamidbar #2) writes that since one should see the candles while saying Kiddush, and some even say that this is absolutely necessary, lighting the candles is an immediate need and not an issue of preparing from one day of Yom Tov for the next. He goes on to explain that the dispute between the Prisha's mother and Eliyah Rabba one applies is one is lighting before nightfall and making Kiddush after nightfall. Rav Shlomo Zalman in Minchat Shlomo 1:3 mentions that some say you can take upon yourself early Yom Tov Sheni and it isn't considered a degradation of the first day of Yom Tov. However, Rivevot Efraim 6:270 advises against early yom tov sheni. Yom Tov Sheni Kehilchato p. 37 writes that one should only do so in a case of extenuating circumstances and cites Rav Elyashiv who agrees. His reasons are so that people don't come to prepare on the first day for the second and so as not to degrade the kedusha of the first day.</ref> | # Some say that if is going to say Kiddush for the second day of Yom Tov early before nightfall, one is permitted and should light the candles before Kiddush so that one can see the candles during Kiddush. <Ref>Rav Poalim 4:23 and Ben Ish Chai (Bamidbar #2) writes that since one should see the candles while saying Kiddush, and some even say that this is absolutely necessary, lighting the candles is an immediate need and not an issue of preparing from one day of Yom Tov for the next.

==Halachot of a Jew from Diaspora in Israel== | |||
# However, it is permissible for non-Israelis to make a [[minyan]] for [[Yom Tov]] sheni in [[Israel]] because that is already an established custom. <Ref>Sh"t Avkat Rochel 26, [[Yom Tov]] Kihilchato (page 67) </ref> | |||
# If someone from the diaspora is in Israel for Yom Tov Sheni he shouldn't be the Shaliach Tzibur for them for a weekday tefillah.<ref>Ginat Veradim OC 1:13 writes that an Israeli can recite the Yom Tov tefillah for a congregation of those from the Diaspora even though he isn't observing a second day of Yom Tov based on the concept of Yatzah Motzei. He explains that we hold like Rashi that someone obligated in megillah one day can exempt someone who is obligated on another day. He compares it to the Tur 566:4 where the Tur holds that someone who isn't fasting can exempt the congregation who is fasting in Anenu. | |||
* Birkei Yosef 124:3 points out that it is very questionable to hold like Rashi regarding Megillah since it is disputed by the Yerushalmi and Tosfot. Also, the Tur would agree that this case is different since on a Tanit it isn't a lie to say it is a fast day even if you're not fasting but if you're observing Yom Tov how can you say today is a Yom Tov. Zera Avraham 1:12 disagrees also because we don't follow the Tur and Rashi is local to the institution of megillah in multiple locations but not relevant generally. Birkei Yosef sides with the Zera Avraham mostly but in this case he says that the Jew from Diaspora can pray for the Israeli congregation since he is also obligated in the weekday besides the Yom Tov ones.</ref> | |||
# If someone from the Diaspora is in Israel for Yom Tov Sheni and he wants to do a milah, if there is no available Israeli mohel he may do the milah. But if it is possible to get an Israeli mohel one should do so and not do the milah. Ashkenazim have what to rely upon to be lenient to do the milah even if there's an Israeli mohel available.<ref>The Nichpeh Bkesef OC 5 is strict since milah on Shabbat is only dechuya (Shabbat 130a) and it is possible to get another mohel for whom it isn't a melacha (Yoma 6b). Even if it is hutrah still if it is easy we would try to use the better alternatives. Chida in Machzik Bracha O.C. 331:6, Rav Chaim Palagi in Artzot Hachaim 10:22, Ikrei Hadaat O.C. 22:4, and Yalkut Yosef 331:17 concur. Mateh Yehuda v. 2 p. 41 cited by Shaarei Teshuva 496:5 argues that it is permitted since not doing the milah would be a publicly noticeable activity in abrogation of the local custom (see Rosh Pesachim 4:4 and Pri Megadim E"A 468:11). Leviyat Chen n. 98 argues that with respect to Yom Tov Sheni we aren't concerned for a public demonstration of Yom Tov Sheni in Israel (Avkat Rochel 26). Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Yom Tov Sheni Khilchato 12:1 p. 261) was lenient because in his opinion Milah is hutrah on Shabbat (Gra YD 266:25). Beer Moshe (v. 7 p. 331 Dinei Ben Eretz Yisrael Vchul YD 266) agreed. See a discussion of the whole topic in an article [Rabbi Sultan (YUTorah)https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/lecture.cfm/900514/Rabbi%20Ike%20Sultan/Can%20an%20American%20Grandfather%20Do%20Milah%20for%20His%20Grandson%20on%20Yom%20Tov%20Sheni?].</ref> | |||
===Who Should Keep Two Days in Israel=== | |||
# A non-Israeli who is in [[Israel]] for [[Yom Tov]] should keep two days of [[Yom Tov]]. <ref> Rav Yosef Karo in Avkat Rochel 26, Mishna Brurah 496:13, Chazon Ovadyah ([[Yom Tov]] pg 133), [http://dailyhalacha.com/Display.asp?ClipDate=4/15/2011 Rabbi Mansour on dailyhalacha.com]. This is disagreement with the opinion of the Chacham Tzvi (responsa 167) who holds that a non-Israeli who is in Israel for Yom Tov keeps one day.

# If someone owns an apartment in Israel many poskim hold that one should nonetheless keep two days. Some however hold that one should keep one day.<ref>[https://ph.yhb.org.il/category/%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A2%D7%93%D7%99%D7%9D/09-%D7%99%D7%95%D7%9D-%D7%98%D7%95%D7%91-%D7%A9%D7%A0%D7%99-%D7%A9%D7%9C-%D7%92%D7%9C%D7%95%D7%99%D7%95%D7%AA/ Rabbi Eliezer Melamed] writes that as long as there is some factor to question whether the person is going to permanently make aliyah and decide to live in Israel one should keep only one day. One example he gives is if a person owns a house in Israel one should only keep one day.</ref> | |||
# Someone who is making Aliyah to [[Israel]] on condition that everything works out and hasn't yet decided to stay according to some poskim should keep only one day, while according to many others should still keep two days. <ref> Rav Elyashiv (quoted by [[Yom Tov]] Sheni KeHilchato pg 81) holds that one should keep one day, while Rav Moshe Feinstein (quoted by [[Yom Tov]] Sheni KeHilchata) and Chazon Ovadyah ([[Yom Tov]] pg 130) hold that one should keep two days (this is summarized on http://www.dailyhalacha.com/Display.asp?ClipID=2118) </ref> | |||
# A Sephardic unmarried Yeshiva student should observe only one day of [[Yom Tov]] because he doesn’t have an established in either place and we therefore hope that he will find a good wife and job and be able to remain in [[Israel]]. <Ref> Chazon Ovadia (Rav Ovadyah Yosef) page 130, Sh"t Yabea Omer 6:40, Sh"t Yechave Daat 1:26 </ref> | |||
# According to some poskim, if one generally visits [[Israel]] for all Shalosh regalim, he only keeps one day of [[Yom Tov]]. <ref> Sh"t Minchat Shlomo 1:19(7), Chazon Ovadyah (pg 152), http://dailyhalacha.com/Display.asp?ClipDate=4/15/2011. Chacham Benzion Abba Shaul (Or Litzion 3: pg. 225 disagrees and says they should still observe two days of [[Yom Tov]] </ref> | |||
==="One and a Half Days"=== | |||
#There is a third possibility sometimes referred to as one and a half days. This doesn't mean to refrain from doing melacha for half of the day but rather to keep the stringencies of those keeping one day and those keeping two. This means not doing any melacha on the second day of [[Yom Tov]], but wearing [[tefillin]] with a beracha. (Second day of [[shavuot]], eight day of [[pesach]], and ninth day of [[sukkot]], or for those who wear [[tefillin]] on [[chol hamoed]] also second days of [[pesach]] and [[sukkot]]) <ref> Nefesh Harav 84-85. This is the opinion of Rav Chaim Soloveitchik quoted in Mesorah torah journal (http://www.ou.org/pdf/mesorah/mes%206.pdf) volume 6 page 18. </ref> | |||

However, Sh”t Igrot Moshe 3:73 and Sh"t Shema Shlomo 1:9 forbid.
