Many people choose to immigrate to the United States because of the better pension and social welfare in the United States. Especially for low-income retirees, there are not only white cards for medical insurance, but also pension benefits. But these benefits have many restrictions on non-American citizens, that is, green card holders.

For example, as long as American citizens are eligible for socialsecurity, they can receive the money on time whether they live in the United States or return to China after retirement; However, once American green card holders leave the United States, their social security contributions will be cancelled. In addition, medical insurance has no restrictions on American citizens, as long as they are over 65 years old; However, green card holders need to live in the United States for five years and pay at least 40 points in tax returns.

In addition, as long as American citizens meet the poverty conditions, they can apply for SupplementalSecurityIncome benefits, such as income not exceeding $700 and marital property not exceeding $3,000; American green card holders must meet five years and other conditions before they can apply.

At the same time, American citizens have more employment opportunities than green card holders, and many sensitive departments and key positions, such as official military, national defense diplomacy, high-tech and core laboratories, strictly restrict American citizens from entering; In addition, low-level positions such as prison guards and patrol police are also the first choice for American citizens.

More notably, only American citizens can apply for parents, married children and siblings to immigrate to the United States, and American green card holders are not eligible. There is no quota limit for American citizens to apply for spouse immigration, and the spouses of American green card holders have to wait for several years to reunite because of the immigration quota.

If new immigrants plan to become American citizens through naturalization, they must meet the evidence that they have lived for at least two and a half years within five years of holding legal resident status (green card); If you live outside the United States for more than one year, you will not meet the requirements for continuous residence.

Applicants should also show that they have good moral character, and any false record may lead to the cancellation of naturalization qualification.
