An introduction to the characteristics of American professional immigrants

# American Immigration # Introduction Professional immigration is the permanent residency granted by the US government to the talents needed by domestic enterprises. According to American immigration law, professional immigrants are divided into five categories. Here is a brief introduction to the characteristics of American professional immigrants. Welcome to read!

The first priority is people with outstanding talents, the second priority is professionals and people with special talents, the third priority is professionals, skilled workers and unskilled workers, the fourth priority is special immigrants, and the fifth priority is investment immigrants who create employment opportunities. Among these five types of immigrants, the most common is the third type of priority, namely professionals, skilled workers and unskilled workers.

The above is the classification and specific requirements of American immigration law for professional immigrants, so it can be seen that professional immigrants, to put it bluntly, are an effective means for developed countries to recruit skilled talents from all over the world. The countries of professional immigrants are all relatively developed countries, such as the United States, Germany, Canada, Sweden, Romania, Cyprus and Greece. In addition, professional immigrants have certain technical requirements, such as drivers, chefs, turners, welders, Chinese medicine practitioners, hair stylists, designers and so on. And in terms of treatment, it is relatively high, with an average monthly salary of more than 20,000.

General differences between professional immigrants and overseas labor services;

First, the nature is different. Companies that handle professional immigration need to have the qualifications of the Ministry of Public Security, and companies that handle overseas labor services need to have the qualifications of the Ministry of Commerce.

Second, the country where you work is different. The countries of professional immigrants are all highly developed countries, such as the United States. They introduced more high-tech talents to make up for the shortage of their own labor force. Countries that go abroad for labor services are basically concentrated in some countries with relatively backward development, such as African countries. It's just a simple job, which belongs to the category of job introduction and does not apply for immigration.

Third, the companies that handle these two businesses are very different. Professional immigration is handled by a professional immigration company with the qualification of the Ministry of Public Security. The work introduced to customers is arranged and handled by overseas cooperative companies. If customers want to apply for immigration, they can do it through immigration companies, while overseas labor services are handled by labor services companies with the qualifications of the Ministry of Commerce. Just an introduction, they have no right to apply for immigration.

Fourth, companies that handle professional immigration charge relatively high fees, while companies that handle labor services abroad charge relatively low fees.

1. Residence right and travel convenience

With an American green card, you get permanent residency in the United States and can freely enter and leave the United States without going to the embassy to apply for a visa. Permanent residents of the United States can live in any of the 50 States of the United States and travel to many countries without a visa.

With a US passport, you can get visa-free access to about 186 countries and regions in landing visa. With the American green card, more than 100 countries and regions have implemented visa-free and landing visa.

2. Education for children

Admission rate: In the United States, 80% of the admission qualifications are usually allocated to students who are citizens or have permanent residency. This kind of students don't have to compete with the world's top students for admission places when applying, but a separate pool.

There are no restrictions on majors: some ace majors in the United States are not open to international students, while students with permanent residency apply as locals, which not only has a high admission rate, but also gives priority to many ace majors.

Scholarships: Students with permanent residency can apply for a variety of scholarships, with superior examination and approval conditions and a high probability of winning scholarships.

University tuition: The tuition fees paid by students with permanent residency to attend universities (including graduate students and doctoral students) are far lower than those paid by international students. Permanent residents can often save 2/3 of the expenses compared with international students.

Free education in primary and secondary schools: the benefits of becoming a permanent resident are not limited to higher education. Permanent residents can also enjoy free public primary and secondary education.

3. Work and employment

Freedom of employment: green card holders have no restrictions on employment, and can directly choose their favorite occupations like native Americans. Of course, there will be some restrictions. For example, some aerospace companies will require citizenship.

In the United States, international students want to stay only by applying for an H 1B visa. However, it is not easy for international students to find a job. It is even more difficult to find a position and a company is willing to apply for a job in H-1B. There was once a master student who had 72 interviews for H-1B. Because I am an international student, I have hit a wall many times.

Unemployment benefits: When the green card holder has no job, the government will give you a job for free. When you have a normal job, pay taxes for not less than six months (three months in some places), and then lose your job, you can get government relief on a monthly basis by reporting your unemployment to the local authorities in the United States.

The amount of unemployment benefits is usually based on the range of pre-employment salary, usually calculated on the basis of a quarter's salary, ranging from 500 dollars to 2000 dollars.
