Can I return to China for retirement after immigrating to the United States?

Q: After emigrating, can I go back to China to support my old age?

A: Yes.

For foreign Chinese who come to China to visit relatives, negotiate business, carry out scientific, educational, cultural and health exchange activities and handle private affairs, the exit-entry administration department of the public security organ may issue multiple valid visas within 5 years according to regulations;

Foreign Chinese who need to stay for a long time to work, study, visit relatives or do private affairs in the local area may be issued a residence permit valid for less than 5 years according to regulations.

It can be said that it provides great convenience for overseas Chinese who want to return to China for retirement in the future. However, it should be noted that at present, the material standards for applying for a five-year residence period may be different in different places. You should consult the local public security department for details.

Q: I have become a foreign citizen. Can I still receive a pension?

A: According to the regulations, overseas Chinese and Chinese employed in China can participate in social insurance including endowment insurance and medical insurance according to law, and those who meet the conditions for enjoying social insurance benefits can receive social insurance benefits.

Including:

1. Participate in the basic old-age insurance and the payment period reaches 15 years;

Second, reach the statutory retirement age (subject to local or industry regulations).

Those who have participated in the old-age insurance for urban workers before going abroad and kept the old-age insurance relationship and personal account will re-participate in the basic old-age insurance after returning to work, and the relationship between the old and new old-age insurance can be continued.

Eligible for social insurance benefits, applicants need to go through retirement procedures in China, obtain a pension account and apply for overseas residence qualification before they can receive a pension.

However, if immigrants have gone through the formalities of resignation or terminated their social insurance relationship before, they will not be able to enjoy social insurance benefits.

Q: How can I apply for the pension qualification of people living abroad?

A: Applicants should go to the embassy or entrust others to handle it or mail it. The information to be provided includes a valid passport, residence certificate and the completed "Qualification Examination Form for Persons Living Abroad to Receive Pensions".

Previously, many overseas Chinese reported that the qualification certification of retirees to receive pensions was as troublesome as "annual examination", and they needed to go to China embassies and consulates abroad once a year to issue a "living confirmation form", which is a form that we often ridiculed as "proving that we are still alive".

Extended reading: the living habits of American immigrants

The living habits of American immigrants are not terrible, as long as they constantly improve their methods. Recently, there has been a wave of American immigrants, and American immigrants have also ushered in the peak of immigration. Immigrants should not only understand the country's tax system, education, welfare and so on. , but also know the local eating habits. As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people. When they first arrive in a country, they will not adapt to the local diet, which will also bring a lot of trouble to their lives.

The cafeteria is especially convenient for newcomers or tourists who are not familiar with English. Buffet rooms in Europe are more formal, but the United States is generally different from Europe. On the counter of the cafeteria, the food is dazzling, both hot and cold, and customers are free to take it with plates and knives and forks.

Then pay at the cashier at one end of the counter. The food in the cafeteria is cheaper and there is no need to tip. When a customer carries a tray to an empty table by himself, he should usually ask the permission of the guests who are already sitting there before taking a seat.

After briefly introducing the common sense of American immigrants' living habits, do you all have a certain understanding? After immigrating from the United States, I suggest you know more about the local humanistic feelings, which is very helpful for you to adapt to this land as soon as possible and become an authentic local resident.
