What's the difference between going abroad for a green card and emigrating?

Broadly speaking, as long as you change your place of residence, you are an immigrant. Legally speaking, immigrants in some countries mainly refer to countries, and immigrants mainly refer to foreigners. Because some countries are relatively small, domestic migration is of little significance. Some countries pay more attention to the concept of law and stipulate how long they have lived in a place before they can be recognized as immigrants. Obviously, there is a difference between immigrants and floating population. Floating population can refer to a place for traveling, seeing a doctor, seeking a job and doing business. But immigrants pay more attention to living conditions.

Hehe, it is true that the green card used to refer to the permanent residence permit in the United States, but now the green card means:

A green card is a permanent residence permit for foreign citizens. Holding a green card means that the cardholder has the permanent residence in the issuing country, and at the same time, holding a green card can exempt entry visas for a certain period of time.

Therefore, although the names of permanent residence cards vary from country to country, the image of American green card is the deepest in China's memory, so it is also true in China. Nowadays, a permanent residence permit in any country can be called a green card, because it is a unique title for China people. Of course, when using English or the language of the host country, it cannot be called a "green card"
