General knowledge of American immigrants' physical examination

1. General knowledge of American immigrants' physical examination

1. Infectious diseases immigrants to the United States need a medical examination. If there are infectious diseases that seriously threaten public health and safety, they may not pass the medical examination of American immigrants. Infectious diseases here refer to tuberculosis (TB), syphilis, chancre, gonorrhea, groin granuloma, lymphogranuloma of venereal diseases, leprosy and so on. In addition, according to the president's executive order, diseases that should be isolated, such as cholera, diphtheria, SARS, yellow fever, etc. And diseases of public health emergencies of international concern all belong to this category.

The following two situations can be exempted:

1. The green card applicant has been infected with infectious diseases that endanger public health and safety, and may be eligible to apply for exemption. However, USCIS can only grant exemption if it has consulted CDC and CDC suggests that USCIS grant exemption based on certain conditions or treatments.

2. Immigrant applicants who are parents, spouses, underage or unmarried children of American citizens or green card holders, or legally adopted children of underage and unmarried children may be exempted.

Second, there is no vaccination.

Applicants who immigrate to the United States must be vaccinated, such as measles, mumps, rubella, polio, hepatitis B, tetanus, influenza B and other vaccines recommended by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice. Vaccination does not have much impact, and the vaccine can make up.

Exemption can be applied to foreigners who cannot get a green card because they have not been vaccinated correctly, or because they have not been vaccinated correctly based on sincere or moral beliefs.

3. Physical or mental abnormality

The applicant's physical or mental abnormality may pose a threat to others or his own property, safety and tranquility, or it has posed a harmful threat in the past due to physical or mental abnormality, and may be repeated or pose other threats.

However, physical or mental abnormality is not enough to make the applicant rejected. Physical or mental disorders must be related to harmful behaviors and threats, so that the applicant's application for immigration to the United States can be rejected.

Fourth, drug abuse or drug addiction

The medical examiner will evaluate the applicant's past behavior and physical condition when determining whether the applicant has such problems.

Drug abuse or addiction cannot be exempted. However, this situation has been alleviated, which may solve the problem of rejection of immigration applications.

2. What about the children of American immigrants who are over-aged?

As an important family planning, children's education and the development of future generations, immigration is an important starting point for immigration choice. The specific situation of each family is different. When immigrants have a plan, they will have a variety of choices and guarantees. If they don't make a plan in advance, they will encounter various problems, such as waiting too long and the children are over-aged.

If there is only one child, we suggest that the child can apply for investment immigration as the main applicant. In the future, children will be 2 1 year-old, and they will have the financial ability to ensure that their parents get American green cards after work. At that time, my parents were old. Considering the life arrangement after retirement, I may consider living with my children and settling in the United States for the elderly. This is more conducive to the personal development of children, and parents can have one more choice when they need their children to accompany them in the future.

If you have two or more children, you need to plan carefully. Some parents think that if they want to apply once, they will delay the application process. We suggest that older children go to the United States as international students first, and other younger children submit their applications together with the main applicant. This will not affect the immigration application of younger children. Older children can also enjoy high-quality educational resources. After all, the United States has the world's top educational resources, which is an incomparable advantage for other countries.

In this case, even if the child is at risk of being over age and may not be able to get a green card with his family, the parents of the child can still apply for family reunion for the child after getting a green card. Children can work in China while waiting for the schedule, or they can choose to work in the United States after getting a green card. If they had studied in America before, they would have integrated into American life smoothly. This can also be said to provide children with more choices and possibilities.

3. the cost of applying for immigration to the United States

I. Application I-526

The US Citizenship and Immigration Service announced an increase in the fees for immigration and naturalization applications and other related procedures. Among them, the application fee for I-526 increased from 1500 to $3,675, an increase of 145%.

Second, the NVC visa fee

400 dollars per person, which is the fee that the investor I-526 will pay to the National Visa Center of the United States after being approved. Applicable to investors who are in China and need to go to the Guangzhou Consulate for an interview. Require investors and their families to pay.

Three. I-485 application

This fee will only be used when the investor is in the United States and needs to change his identity. After the fee is increased, the application fee for I-485 is 1 140 USD per person; The fee for applicants under 14 is $750.

Fourth, the medical examination fee

In the designated physical examination hospitals in China, it is RMB for adults in 900 yuan and RMB for children in 600 yuan.

Sixth, fingerprints

The biometric service fee announced by USCIS is $85 per person, which is still the same as before.

Seven. Immigration fee

The latest USCIS immigration fee has increased from the original $65,438+$065 to $220. USCIS will use this fee to process investors' immigrant visa packages and make green cards. The main applicant and many family members who immigrated together need to pay this fee through the internet as soon as they get the immigrant visa, otherwise it may delay the time to get the green card.

4. Living expenses of American immigrants

1. Living expenses

After waiting for the approval of 526 login for several years, there is no big expenditure. After landing, the first cost involved is the purchase or lease of the house. Due to different residence and personal requirements, this fee varies greatly. For example, if it is near Los Angeles, California, a four-bedroom house in an ordinary middle-class community will be between 500,000 and 654.38+00,000, but the same type of house may be half the price in Houston.

Let's take 6.5438+0 million as an example. If you plan to buy a mortgage, the average mortgage term in the United States is 30 years (or less), and the current mortgage interest rate is between 4% and 5%. If the term is 30 years, the interest rate is 4.5% and the down payment is 65,438+00%, then your annual mortgage repayment is about 55,000 dollars. But you also need to pay property tax, insurance and community management fees. There is no small difference in property tax rates among States in the United States. These extra taxes and fees will be around 20 thousand every year. So you will spend 6,543,800 yuan first, and then spend about 75,000 yuan every year. If you buy a house of 500,000 yuan, we can estimate the cost as half of the above: 37,500 yuan.

2. Living expenses

Let's look at the cost of living again. For a family of four, if it is an ordinary middle-class lifestyle, 5,000 yuan a month can be taken care of, including basic food, clothing, housing and transportation, or even lower. If you plan to buy two cars, the budget of 50,000 to 654.38+million can give you a pretty good choice.

3. Education expenses

Most people emigrate for their children, so the cost of education is also part of the plan. If children attend public schools, education before university is completely free. What you need to pay is the cost of pens, ink, paper and inkstone, school uniforms (in some schools) and some students' activities. But these expenses are only one or two thousand yuan per person per year at most. However, if it is a private school, the tuition fee ranges from thousands to tens of thousands, generally between 20,000 and 40,000 per year. University expenses are very different.

The average tuition fee of private universities is 3 1 000 per year, while that of public universities is more than 9,000 in the state and 22,000 out of the state. If accommodation, books, transportation and other expenses are added, the average annual expenses of private schools can reach 46,000, that of public states is about 23,000, and that of out-of-state is about 35,000.

In addition, medical insurance is not a big expenditure. For a family of four, the monthly premium will be around $65,438+$0,000. Therefore, the annual medical budget1.5,000 to 20,000 should be enough. Even if there are serious illness expenses, as long as there is insurance, personal expenses will not be much higher than 20,000 (including premiums and medical expenses) because in the United States, there is a concept of "upper limit of personal expenses". If you are unfortunately seriously ill, the insurance company will pay all the expenses that exceed this upper limit.

Therefore, if your income in the United States is limited in five years and you rely entirely on your own savings to support your daily expenses, then you need about $6,543.8+$6,000 (of which the investment amount is temporarily calculated according to the increased possible investment amount, that is, $800,000) to pay the basic living expenses before applying for immigration, obtaining a green card and obtaining citizenship. If there are children attending private schools or universities during this period, further adjustments need to be made according to the above education expenses.
