Irish Immigrant Pension System and Policy

Irish Immigrant Pension System and Policy

1, Irish pension rules and regulations Irish pensions must be paid on time by households before the age of 56, and then they can receive pensions classified by payment years when they retire at the age of 66; The last one is to apply for a state pension with limited subsidies, which is a kind of social assistance. Government departments will investigate the applicant's economic development and then issue a certain amount of pension according to the situation.

2. Ireland's current pension service policy.

In addition, the Irish government departments have also shown excellent standards for the elderly in the old-age insurance policy. For example, elderly people over 66 who live alone can apply for rent subsidies and living alone subsidies. Even if some elderly people who live alone already have visual impairment pension, disability pension, disability allowance or disability allowance, they will still have this allowance. This is to compensate for the increased cost of my daily life compared with my husband and wife or family life. People who are legally 70 years old can enjoy the current package of policies to reduce living expenses such as water and electricity projects, including exempting subsidies for utilities, gas or TV license fees. In addition, all elderly people over the legal age of 66 who are legally and permanently settled in Ireland can get a regional transportation card and take public transportation such as buses, trains and light rail stations in Ireland for free.

The nursing homes in Ireland are very sound.

Ireland also has well-equipped nursing homes, because most of the applications for community and government fees and welfare lottery tickets are relatively sound. The biggest difference between Irish old people and China old people is that they hate living with their children. They think that living together for a long time will damage each other's quality of life, and they look forward to having their own separate home and living with other like-minded friends. Naturally, it is also because the local nursing homes are of good standards and rich old-age life, so it is enough for children to visit them on time.

I. Physical Examination System Generally speaking, the physical examination of Irish immigrants focuses on two aspects: on the one hand, whether the applicant has a serious infectious disease that affects public safety, and on the other hand, whether it is possible to cause greater medical expenses to the public.

Serious infectious diseases that affect public safety, such as tuberculosis and AIDS, are more common. In recent years, diseases such as tuberculosis are quite common in China. Many people don't have typical symptoms such as low fever, cough and emaciation after infection, and they don't know until X-ray shows lung calcification. The infection rate of tuberculosis in Ireland is very low, so tuberculosis is one of the serious diseases that Irish immigrants attach importance to in physical examination.

However, this does not mean that people who are unfortunately infected with tuberculosis can never immigrate or study in Ireland. Usually they need sputum culture for three days in a row. If the result is negative, it proves that there is no living Mycobacterium tuberculosis in their sputum, which is not contagious to the public, and X-rays can be rechecked three months later to prove that their tuberculosis focus is stable and there is no recurrence.

Therefore, after severe infectious diseases are generally completely cured, it is no problem to immigrate without affecting public health and safety.

What is more difficult to deal with is chronic diseases. In fact, chronic diseases are often not very serious, but because maintaining physical condition may increase Ireland's medical insurance expenditure, the immigration application will not be passed. The most common chronic disease is diabetes.

Second, the general process of physical examination

No matter what kind of immigration program you apply for, the process of physical examination is basically the same. Specific physical examination items include blood test, urine test and chest X-ray.

Generally, applicants receive medical examination notice first. Specific physical examination items and precautions will be marked on the notice. After receiving the letter, the applicant can go to the designated hospital to find the relevant doctor to start the physical examination. However, it should be noted that not every hospital can have a physical examination. Irish immigration officers only accept medical reports from hospitals and doctors designated on the medical form. The scope of these hospitals and doctors is valued by the Irish Immigration Department. As long as it is not the physical examination results of designated medical institutions, they are not satisfied.

The general physical examination is valid for one year, so simply speaking, immigrants need a physical examination for one year, and they can't miss the time, otherwise the physical examination will be invalid. If it exceeds the validity period of one year, you have to go to the designated hospital for physical examination.

Generally speaking, the health report after the physical examination will not be directly given to the applicant, and the physical examination doctor will not directly and clearly tell you what problems may affect the immigration procedures. They can only tell you about health problems from the perspective of "care" for your attention in the future.
