What are the benefits of immigrating to Canada?

# Canadian Immigrants # Introduction Canada is a developed country with a perfect social welfare system in all aspects, including social welfare, unemployment welfare, medical and health welfare and so on. These benefits can be mainly divided into education, medical care, life and work. Let's take a look together.

1. What are the benefits of immigrating to Canada?

Educational welfare

I know that many domestic applicants come to Canada mostly because I lost my children's future. Qixi has received many years of socialist education in China, and vaguely remembers the years of studying. Usually one day after school, I have to attend various cram schools. I remember when I was in the third grade, my teacher didn't say a word, but if I didn't go to my teacher's house for extracurricular tutoring, I would be beaten. Later, I went to high school and slept 5.6 hours a day, which is quite a lot. After coming to Canada, I often meet senior three students who finish school at 3 pm. I envy it!

On the whole, Canada's education system is the result of the United States, and G points can communicate with each other. Children are free from birth to kindergarten and high school. Of course, it refers to public institutions. If it is private, the price is different. Generally speaking, what school your child can go to depends on which district you live in, which is a bit like the school district in China. According to the policy, all students in this school district should accept orders. So many China couples are willing to buy so-called school districts when they come to Canada. In fact, there is no school ranking list in Canada.

In addition, pay attention to higher education. The difference is tuition. International students usually pay about three times as much as local students, and some even more. If you are a Canadian citizen with permanent residency, you can charge according to the standards of local students. If the family has financial difficulties, students with immigrant status can apply for the OSAP Ontario Student Financial Assistance Program. The government can not only provide you with interest-free student loans, but also give you additional living allowances, which do not need to be repaid.

Medical allowance

A, first of all, people who have never been to Canada will hear that medical care in Canada is free. In fact, what is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. According to my experience, as far as Ontario is concerned, if you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, you can apply for the Ontario Health Card, which is the legendary green health card.

Usually, new immigrants can apply three months after landing in Ontario. Getting this card means that everything is free as long as you are hospitalized. Yes, it means nothing, including your nutritious meal! The coach of Qixi driving school once had a hysteromyoma, and it didn't cost much to remove it and be hospitalized. Of course, giving birth to children, heart disease, cancer, fractures and the like are also free. In addition, it is free to take this card to the clinic, even the legendary clinic.

B, what I'm saying here is that it costs nothing to go to the outpatient clinic, but you need to pay for the medicine yourself. Yes, you can't just buy prescription drugs in Canada. You need a doctor to give you a prescription. You take the list to the drugstore to buy medicine. Why? Because Canadian medicine is separate! This is completely different from China. Why didn't China separate you? (In case of hospitalization, the medicine fee is free. ) well, then the question is, what should I do if I go to the drugstore to buy medicine? You have two situations: first, if you have a proper job, the company will buy you medical insurance, which will cover all your medical expenses. If you don't have a job, or your salary is not enough to pay for your medicine, you can apply for the medical assistance program in Ontario, and then the government will pay for your medicine. In fact, you didn't spend money on medicine after walking around!

Welfare of children, the elderly and the disabled

From birth to adulthood, families can receive child subsidies from the government, which is called milk money. Usually, each child is about 600 Canadian dollars per month, and the amount of milk depends on family income.

Pension, before 2009, all citizens and permanent residents who have lived in Canada for more than 15 years can receive the government pension plan. 20 10 is followed by 10. How much everyone's pension depends on many factors. For example, the minimum guarantee amount stipulated by the government+the percentage of pre-retirement wage standard+the amount of retirement tax paid before retirement+the retirement insurance purchased by individuals. A few retirees I know around me can get about 1 700 Canadian dollars every month.

If you are disabled, you can get support from the ODSP protection project of the Canadian government. Including monthly allowance of 1350 Canadian dollars, all medical treatment and medicines are free, and dentists and glasses are also free. Holistic care of private or group nurses. You can change a moped every five years and so on. In addition, public places must have automatic doors for disabled people to enter, and all buses have waiting facilities for disabled people. On Tanabata, there was a time when I traveled to and from the city by bus every day. I often meet disabled people who go out alone and never encounter any inconvenience. Everyone will take the initiative to show courtesy to the disabled, and there are special seats for the disabled in public transportation.

Language, work, unemployment benefits

For new immigrants, the Canadian government provides free language training. The government buys educational resources to improve the English level of new immigrants free of charge. This kind of English training is divided into different levels. Before entering school, you need to take a language test to measure your language level, and then you are arranged to be trained in a language training institution near your home.

For new immigrants, the government also provides free job search consultation and resume revision, and free recruitment consultation.

If you have worked for more than 6 months, you are unfortunately unemployed, not because you voluntarily quit or were expelled from the company. You can apply for unemployment benefits from the government. The unemployment amount is 56% of your salary, and you can receive it continuously 10 month.

Welfare of LGBT and other groups

Marriage is legal, raising children is legal, and welfare insurance has equal human rights.

2. Immigration methods

First, skilled immigrants.

Mainly depends on the applicant's academic level and work experience. If my occupation is on the list of immigration shortage, it will be much easier for everyone to apply again. At present, the application period is between one year and two years.

However, with the increasing popularity of Canadian immigrants, the list is constantly adjusted, and the number of occupations that are in short supply is greatly reduced, which means that it is more and more difficult to apply for skilled immigrants.

Second, entrepreneurial immigrants.

As a new immigration method, entrepreneurial immigration is very popular in Canada. Different provinces have higher autonomy and different requirements, and can submit applications to different provinces at the same time.

Different provinces have different emphases, and NB province is more suitable for foreign executives. Saskatchewan is suitable for well-funded shareholders, while BC strongly encourages new industries to start businesses. Manetho has a low bar threshold, and you can basically pass the application.

Third, invest in immigration.

With the improvement of immigration saturation, investment immigration, as an early popular immigration method, is gradually withdrawing from the historical stage, and it is becoming more and more difficult to immigrate only by funds.

At present, Quebec, a big immigrant province, has sounded the countdown to receiving investment immigrants. Whether it is to increase other requirements or close the application, it is very urgent for immigrant applicants.

Fourth, immigrants studying abroad.

Immigrating through studying abroad, looking for a job in a store after graduation, and then submitting an application for immigration can be said to be the simplest way to immigrate, without proof of funds or additional requirements.

You only need to submit an application, then grade it, according to your performance during your study abroad, and then find a job for a few years before you can be naturalized directly.
