Introduce six ways to immigrate to America.

Six ways to immigrate to the United States

1. Investment immigrants choose to invest in the United States. It is necessary to invest some money in the United States. Most American immigration projects are "regional center" projects (commonly known as EB-5 projects), and there are many areas to choose from, such as South Dakota, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Mississippi and other investment immigration projects.

2. Skilled immigrants

Skilled immigrants in the United States are difficult to choose. They need professional knowledge in related fields and their country needs them. For example, researchers need academic qualifications, certificates, work certificates, etc. in order to achieve outstanding results in this field, and have at least three years of scientific research experience. Nurses, chefs, radiation therapists, large freight drivers, elevator maintenance workers, etc. Need to have more than two years of work experience or professional training, as well as professional certificates.

3. Spouse migration

Spouse immigration is to marry an American and then obtain American citizenship. This kind of immigration is also easier to handle. If you marry an American citizen, you can go through immigration formalities soon. If you marry someone with an American green card, the immigration procedure will be a little slower. The premise of applying for spouse transfer is that they must have a valid marriage certificate, and the remarried person needs to provide proof that the marriage has been dissolved. Such immigrants can only obtain immigration qualification for two years, and if the marriage relationship is considered true after two years, they can obtain permanent immigration qualification.

4. Relatives emigrate

Some relatives immigrated to the United States. There are several kinds of relative immigrants: adult unmarried children and their children of American citizens, parents of American adult citizens, spouses and underage unmarried children of American green card holders, brothers and sisters of American citizens and their spouses and underage children, married children of American citizens and their spouses and underage children. Different application types have different immigration procedures and speeds, which depends on the conditions that are most suitable for applicants to choose immigration methods.

5. Immigration of excellent talents

It is more difficult for American immigrants to get a green card. The prerequisite for China applicants to immigrate to the United States is high-tech talents or high-end talents in various fields. For example, famous athletes in sports and celebrities in entertainment circles can choose this way to immigrate to the United States.

6. Immigrants studying abroad

Applicants from China to study in the United States must be international students studying in the United States. In order to attract talents from all over the world, the United States has opened up a separate channel for students studying in the United States to apply for green cards. Students studying in the United States find a company to hire themselves, sign an employment contract, apply for an H 1B visa, and then they can apply for a green card (they must successfully apply for a green card within the validity period of the H 1B visa). If H- 1B visa fails to be successfully converted into a green card after its expiration, H- 1B will be invalid.

Second, the cost of American investment immigration

American investment immigrants are divided into EB-5 immigrants and direct investment immigrants. However, because many investors are not familiar with the business environment in the United States and it is difficult to start a business, they generally choose EB-5 immigrants instead of directly investing in immigrants. Its expenses generally include project investment, administrative expenses, immigration consultant fees, immigration lawyer fees, etc., and are even inevitable. Therefore, for investment funds, other expenses of investment immigration should also be taken into account.

I. Project Investment Fund

Most friends who know about American investment immigration know that if you want to immigrate to the United States and get a permanent visa, you need to invest $654.38+00,000 or $500,000 in a specific field. This is the investment money that everyone needs to prepare. The money will be returned to investors after the five-year investment expires.

Second, management costs.

When investors are looking for suitable EB-5 investment immigration projects, they also need to consider an administrative fee, which is different in different regional centers. Of course, some regional centers do not need administrative fees, and some regions have administrative fees as high as $60,000. Generally speaking, the management cost of most regional centers is about $30,000 to $40,000. It should be noted that high administrative costs do not necessarily mean that the project is good.

Third, immigration consultant fees.

Obtaining EB-5 permanent visa is a complicated process, involving a lot of professional knowledge and policy terms, so we must hire experienced EB-5 investment immigration consultants. Generally speaking, the consulting fee for investment immigrants ranges from $6,543,800+0,000 to $6,543,800+0,500.

Fourth, immigration attorney fees.

What EB-5 investors need to pay attention to is that in addition to the above fees, you must also prepare a lawyer's fee, which is mainly paid to immigration lawyers. These immigration lawyers will use this money to pay your I-526 and I-829 application fees and other fees that must be paid to the US Immigration Service. The lawyer's fee is between $65,438+0.5-25,000. When many EB-5 investors contact us, they always think that the total cost of applying for EB-5 permanent green card is 500 thousand dollars. In order to avoid misunderstanding, investors should bear in mind the above-mentioned series of costs.

Welfare of children of American immigrants

1. The baby is born.

Children born in the United States by any American (including illegal immigrants) are regarded as American citizens and hold American passports. No matter how old they are, they are not restricted to stay outside the United States and can freely enter and leave the United States for life. /kloc-citizens aged 0/8 will legally enjoy all the rights and interests of American citizens after taking the oath. 2 1 year-old, can apply for American immigration for spouse, children and parents.

2. Tuition fees for primary and secondary schools

/kloc-before going to college at the age of 0/8, all primary and secondary schools in the United States implemented compulsory education, that is, zero tuition (except aristocratic and private boarding schools). In contrast, at present, the relevant institutions in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou spend more than $30,000 for primary and secondary school students to study in the United States for one year. When primary and middle school students who come to the United States can't keep up with ordinary courses, schools in many cities in the United States have set up targeted English make-up classes. There are full-time teachers to help students every day until they can keep up with ordinary courses in English improvement, and there is no extra charge for this.

3. University tuition

Going to college (including graduate students and doctoral students) only pays local tuition fees. Take California for example. In a medium-level California public university, foreign students have to pay more than $20,000 a year, while "locals" only need to pay more than $3,000 a year.

4. Scholarships

For ordinary China people who are interested in applying for American university scholarships, they can only compete with outstanding people from all over the world for very limited scholarship places open to foreigners. But for people with green cards, the scope of scholarships is far from what a foreigner can apply for. And its competitors are only Native Americans. Because many scholarship institutions in the United States limit scholarships to "Americans" (people with permanent residency in the United States).

5. Student loans

Green card holders with 18 or above can apply for various student loans in the year when they get their green cards. For example, the tuition and living expenses of excellent private universities in the United States are as high as more than 40 thousand dollars a year. When a green card holder wants to study for a two-year master's degree, he can lend 60,000 to 70,000 dollars at a time. After graduation, if you can't find a job, you don't have to pay the loan. After finding a job, pay it off in years. Usually only one-tenth of the salary is repaid every month. In the United States, national policy ensures that no one can't go to school because of financial difficulties.

6. immediate family members benefit

Green card holders can apply for green cards for their spouses and minor children under the age of 2 1 after marrying foreigners.
