Is life really carefree after immigrating to America?

In recent years, not only investment immigrants are prevalent, but also having children in the United States has increasingly become the choice of some parents. The poorer you are in America, the more you dare to raise a large number of children. Why? One of the reasons is that the poor have low income and can get a lot of protection from the government, but they are carefree. In the United States, according to the population statistics, a couple has two children on average. Some families have three or four. A few are outrageous, even as many as a dozen. For example, a couple in California raised 17 children in succession. The man's income is 80 thousand dollars a year. If he has two children, he is middle class. However, having so many children is definitely a poor person with low income.

The expert described the American government's child welfare policy. Guarantee 1: breakfast and lunch in low-income families' schools are free. Take? Eat? Generally speaking, children from low-income families have free breakfast and lunch at school. Is the annual list of the Ministry of Education detailed? Qualification form? Parents can be seated according to their income. Take California for example. At present, if the annual income of a family of eight is less than $565,438+0,565,438+09, all children can enjoy free meals, milk and snacks. From kindergarten to high school graduation. For families with more than eight people, the standard will be raised by 5226 yuan for each additional person. For example, for children with 10, the standard is $52,260, which is more than 50,000 RMB, which is more than 19. Obviously, the annual income of the Carson family is lower than this standard. Therefore, all children in Carson School can enjoy free meals, milk and snacks at school.

Guarantee 2: WIC Preschool Program. What about preschool children? The government has another important law: the WIC plan of the Ministry of Agriculture. WIC, right? Women, babies and children? (women, babies and children). It may be that Chinese in the United States make full use of American welfare, and the website also has Chinese pages. It is clearly shown on the home page that the mother-infant and child nutrition supplement program provides supplementary food, health care referral, nutrition education and breastfeeding promotion and support for low-income pregnant women, lactating and postpartum women and infants under 5 years old who are at risk of malnutrition.

With the help of WIC, children in many families can't finish eating milk, eggs and peanut butter, and their parents help them eat.

As long as you fill in your income online, you can know whether you are eligible for WCI plan. The federal regulation is that the pre-tax income is below the poverty line 185%, that is, it meets the conditions. If it is a little higher, you can also apply. The standard for a family of eight is an annual income of $73,365,438+0.6. If there are more than 8 people, the standard will increase by $7,437 for each additional 1 person. Obviously, the Carson family is absolutely qualified. A family of nine with an annual income of $80,000 is eligible.

WIC does not look at identity, that is, it is not only for American citizens, green card holders or legal persons. According to American law, even illegal immigrants can enjoy it as long as they live in the United States. From pregnancy examination and delivery to the age of 5, you basically don't have to pay for it yourself. The United States regards children as the wealth of the country, so it makes the country bear the cost.

Guarantee 3: American citizens and green card holders enjoy the physiotherapy subsidy program. As for American citizens and green card holders, there are other benefits. For example, the federal Medicaid program. The government provides all medical insurance, including dental insurance, to all low-income families and children under 65-438+09. Another example is food stamps, which are distributed to eligible low-income families to buy food. You can buy all kinds of food in the supermarket. Of course, alcohol and tobacco are not allowed to be bought.

Guarantee 4: National housing prices? Close to the people? . Another priority is housing. Not long ago, domestic news reported that some cities were playing? Luxury real estate is close to the people? . I don't know. Luxury? How's it going? Close to the people? . This is absolutely not available in America. The median price of an American house in America is less than $200,000. House prices in California are higher. Carson's home is located in a five-bedroom independent room, about 400 thousand dollars. In other words, it is equivalent to Carson's annual income for five years. If you rent it, it will cost about $2,000 a month. For families with low per capita income, the government has a subsidy program.

In America, you can really see some vagrants. Some are mentally ill, some are drug addicts, and some are? Brother Sharp? They like this way of life, mostly young people. However, there are no homeless children or begging children in America. Parents have low or no income. As long as they have children, the government will definitely pay for renting a house.

Guarantee 5: Low-income families reduce college tuition. After the child is born, if the mother works and the child is sent to day care class, it will cost more than 600 to 1000 USD per month. However, for low-income families, the government will help pay.

As for going to school, I started kindergarten for one year at the age of five, and then went to primary school 1 grade until I graduated from high school. All compulsory education, even textbooks, are provided by schools. You have to pay tuition to go to college, but low-income families can apply for financial aid from the federal and state governments to reduce college tuition. The general standard is that if the annual income is only more than 30 thousand, the tuition and living expenses of the university will be shared by the government and the school. If you earn a lot of money every year, you should pay a little by yourself according to a certain proportion.
