Foreign students get green cards in China.

It is almost impossible for foreign students to get a green card.

Foreigner's permanent residence permit, commonly known as "green card", is valid for five years, 10 year, with the age of 18 as the boundary, and is divided into four categories: investment, employment, relatives' asylum and special contribution. The investment "green card" stipulates that direct investment in China will be stable for at least three consecutive years, and the actually paid-in registered capital will not be less than 500,000 US dollars; The post category "green card" stipulates that he has served as deputy general manager and deputy factory director for more than 4 years and has lived in China for not less than 3 years; Even the "green card" that relatives take refuge in requires the spouses of immigrants to have a five-year marriage relationship and a stable living security and residence.

The data shows that in addition to relatives taking refuge, most of the winners of the existing "green cards" are special contributors. In 2004, China issued the first permanent residence permit for foreigners to Joan Hinton, an 83-year-old American who had lived in China for 56 years. Joan Hinton was born in the United States on 192 1. She is the granddaughter of Voynich, the author of the novel The Gadfly. Before coming to China, she was a classmate of Yang Zhenning, a famous physicist, and one of the few female scientists in the United States who participated in the research and manufacture of the first atomic bomb.

According to relevant departments, under normal circumstances, foreigners who want to obtain a "green card" in China must first be accepted by the local public security bureau, then reviewed by the provincial public security bureau, and finally approved and issued by the Ministry of Public Security. It takes about six months before and after. Winners of "Green Card" can stay in China indefinitely, and they can enter and leave the country with their passports and foreigners' permanent residence cards without going through visa formalities.
