When any country absorbs immigrants, it will consider the age of the applicant, which will also become an important factor in whether to accept immigration applications. But what is more humane for American immigrants is that they can set different age limits according to different technical positions.

At present, most English-speaking countries require applicants' English scores when applying for immigration.
