What is an immigration director?

The conditions of "immigration supervision" for permanent residents in various countries are relatively loose, but the requirements of "immigration supervision" are relatively strict to apply for naturalization. Let's introduce the immigration policies of various countries. Let's talk about what immigration director is first.

Immigration director, as the name implies, applicants cannot leave the country where they want to immigrate for a long time (short term). If they leave for a long time, they cannot apply for naturalization or lose their immigration status.

England: 5 years, half a year.

Applicants can apply for permanent residence if they keep their investment for five years and live in the UK for six months every year. After one year of permanent residency, you can apply for naturalization, provided that you have been away from the UK for no more than 450 days in the past five years and no more than 90 days in the recent 1 year. It is suggested that immigrant applicants can also take the basic English exam for naturalization at any time within 5 years. If they pass the exam, they will become British citizens after living for six years.

Canada: Permanent residence requires five years and two years.

Canada needs to live for two years in five years to maintain permanent residence status, and it needs to live for four years in six years to be naturalized. According to the law, there are only three ways to meet the residence requirements: I actually live in Canada; Living overseas with a spouse with Canadian citizenship; Working overseas for a Canadian company or a Canadian government agency (at this time, the time spent living abroad is also regarded as living in Canada).

Hong Kong: You can apply for exemption if you have lived continuously for seven years.

Hong Kong, like other countries (regions), does not have a very clear definition of entry-exit supervision. The regulation of Hong Kong laws and regulations on the supervision of Hong Kong investment immigrants is "usually living continuously for seven years". Immigration directors in Hong Kong can apply to the Hong Kong government for exemption. The Hong Kong government has residence requirements for applicants, who can apply to become permanent residents of Hong Kong after seven years of continuous residence. Foreign ministers who enter and leave the country have discretion, and the principal applicant can apply for exemption from the government according to the actual situation, which is incomparable to immigrants from other countries.

Australia: Residents need to live for two years within five years.

The conditions in Australia are relatively clear. To maintain the condition of permanent residence in Australia, you must live for two years within five years. If you can't meet them, you must meet one of the following two conditions to retain your immigration status: 1. Prove that you have the necessary economic, cultural and employment relationship with Australia, and this relationship is beneficial to Australia; 2. One of the family members holds a valid re-entry visa. To become a citizen, you must meet the needs of life. If you want to apply for naturalization, you need to live for four years within five years, and you are not allowed to leave the country for more than three months in the last year before applying.

United States: you can keep your green card every six months 1 time.

After obtaining the American green card, the applicant only needs to enter the country 1 time every six months to keep the green card, which is a relatively easy requirement for the applicant. If you want to apply for naturalization, you need to live for two and a half years within five years. According to the immigration law, green card residents who apply for citizenship must live in the United States for at least two and a half years and at least six months each year five years before applying for naturalization. /kloc-if you leave the United States for more than six months per year, the remaining months will not be counted as two and a half years of residence. If you leave the United States for more than 1 year, the calculation of residence time will be interrupted

Singapore: five years, six months a year.

Applicants for Singapore investment immigrants must live in Singapore for more than 50% of the time within five years after obtaining permanent residency in Singapore, otherwise their permanent residency status will be revoked.

Malaysia: one person applies, the whole family signs, and there is no immigration supervisor.

Malaysia's Second Home Program (MM2H) allows eligible foreigners to obtain multiple entry and exit visas and stay in Malaysia for a long time. Visa period 10 year, renewable, life-long renewal. One person applies and the whole family signs the contract. The principal applicant can bring his spouse, unmarried children under the age of 2/kloc-0, and parents over 60 to invest, study and enjoy retirement in Malaysia.

The application period of the second residence plan is short (about 90 working days or more), and there is no age limit, language requirement, proof of asset source, residence requirement and time limit. Applicants for the Second Home Program are free to enter and leave Malaysia anytime and anywhere. Applicants for the second home do not need to change their nationality and file for the record when they move to Malaysia. You can apply for visas to other countries directly in Malaysia without going back to China, which saves time and has a high pass rate.

Since its implementation, Malaysia's Second Home Plan has won the favor of a large number of foreigners with its low threshold, simple procedures and preferential treatment, which has opened up a new road for Malaysia's development and foreign investment and become a unique landscape of Malaysia's tourism industry!
