I am 32 years old, unmarried and a resident of Guangzhou. My mother is a Hong Kong resident, 62 years old, and her husband has passed away. Now I have no children to take care of me. Can I apply to go to Hong Kong? Yes, but there are two kinds of immigrants to Hong Kong.

One is that you used to hold a one-way permit, and your account in the mainland should have been cancelled, and your identity card will be invalid. On the other hand, if you immigrated as an investor in the past, you don't need to close your account, and the mainland ID card is still useful.

The difference is: in the former case, you lost your identity in the mainland and took a non-permanent identity card from Hong Kong. The certificate of going abroad is a Hong Kong identity visa, and you used a home visit permit in the mainland. Seven years later, I changed my permanent identity card and applied for a SAR passport abroad.

In the latter case, your household registration and identity card in the Mainland remain unchanged, and you have a non-permanent identity card in Hong Kong. You will use your mainland identity in the Mainland and your Hong Kong identity in Hong Kong. There is no "Home Visit Permit". Go abroad with mainland passport. Seven years later, I changed into a permanent identity card and applied for a SAR passport abroad.
