All children in Germany, regardless of whether their parents are German citizens or not, enjoy free education in public kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools and universities. When you enter the university stage (including undergraduate and master's degree), you can apply for a grant according to your parents' income, with an education subsidy ranging from 200 to 800 euros per month. When you enter the doctoral stage, you can sign a formal contract with the employer, and you can get a monthly subsidy ranging from 1000-2000 euros according to the specialty and contract.

Whether it is a German registered company signed by a legal person, an employee visa or a German immigrant with a blue card in the European Union, if you have a family, you should apply for a family reunion visa for your family and children as soon as possible. On the one hand, German public kindergartens are in short supply and should be applied as soon as possible; On the other hand, German kindergartens will give priority to younger children. If the child 16 years old or older, he can't come to Germany by family reunion, but by studying abroad, and the success rate of studying abroad is not as high as that of family reunion, and the cycle is short.

All people living in Deju must take out medical insurance. The medical insurance system in Germany is a public insurance system, and the public insurance premium is determined according to individual income. Medical insurance in Germany is divided into public insurance and private insurance. Students at school and employees of the company must purchase public medical insurance. Among them, the medical insurance expenses of the employees of the company shall be borne by both the employer and the employees. Medical insurance institutions pay for treatment, except drugs, auxiliary tools, hospitalization expenses and health precautions, and most of the expenses such as tooth filling and tooth extraction when going to the dentist are also borne by medical insurance institutions. In addition, insurance institutions also bear all or part of the cost of recuperation.

No matter who holds the EU blue card, enterprise visa, employee visa or family visa, you must join German insurance immediately after entering Germany, otherwise you can't renew your visa in Germany to achieve the purpose of immigration. According to the different situation of the applicant, it is recommended that the applicant participate in cost-effective medical insurance.

German law stipulates that all employees must participate in endowment insurance, and freelancers (including self-employed, business operators and independent operators) can freely choose whether to participate in endowment insurance.

After immigrating to Germany, you can receive a pension every month after retirement age as long as you have paid for 5 years. It is suggested that those who intend to live permanently in Germany actively apply for old-age insurance.
