What are the benefits of immigrating to Canada?

# Canadian immigrants # Introduction Canada is a developed country, and its social welfare system in all aspects is quite perfect, including social welfare, unemployment benefits, medical and health benefits and so on. These benefits can be mainly divided into education, medical care, life and work. Let's take a look at it together.

1. What are the benefits of immigrating to Canada?

Education benefits

I know that many domestic applicants come to Canada because I have forgotten the future of my children. Qixi has received many years of socialist education in China, and vaguely remembers the years of studying. On a normal day after school, I have to attend various cram schools. I remember when I was in the third grade, the teacher kept quiet, but if I didn't go to my teacher's house to attend extra-curricular tutoring, I would be waiting to be beaten. Later, when I went to high school, I could sleep for 5.6 hours a day, which is quite a lot. After coming to Canada, I often meet senior three students who finish school at 3 pm. I am very envious!

On the whole, Canada's education system is the result of the United States, and G points can communicate with each other. Children are free from birth to kindergarten and high school. Of course, it refers to public institutions. If it's private, the price is different. On the whole, what school your child can attend depends on which district you live in, which is a bit like the school district in China. According to the policy, all students in the school district should accept the order. Therefore, many China couples are willing to buy so-called school districts when they come to Canada. In fact, there is no ranking list of schools in Canada.

In addition, focus on higher education. The difference is tuition. International students usually pay about three times as much as local students, and some even more. If you are a Canadian citizen and have permanent residency, you can charge according to the standard of local students. If the family has financial difficulties, students with immigrant status can apply for the Ontario student aid program OSAP. The government can not only provide you with interest-free student loans, but also give you additional living allowances, and the living allowances do not need to be repaid.

medical benefits

a. First of all, people who have never been to Canada will hear that medical care in Canada is free. In fact, right is right, wrong is wrong. According to my experience, as far as Ontario is concerned, if you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, you can apply for an Ontario health card, which is the legendary green health card.

Usually, new immigrants can apply after landing in Ontario for three months. Getting this card means that as long as you stay in the hospital, everything will be free. Yes, that is, everything doesn't cost money, including your nutritious meal! Qixi's driving school coach had a hysteromyoma once, and it cost nothing to remove the hospitalization. Of course, giving birth to a child, heart disease, cancer, broken bones and the like are also free of charge. In addition, taking this card to the clinic is a legendary clinic and there is no need to spend money.

B, I'm talking about going to the clinic and staying in hospital without spending money, but you need to pay for the medicine yourself. Yes, you can't just buy prescription drugs in Canada. You need a doctor to write a prescription for you. You take the list to the pharmacy to buy medicine. Why? Because Canadian medicine is separate! This is completely different from China. Why don't China separate you? (In the case of staying in the hospital, the medicine fee is free.) OK, so the question is, what should I do if I go to the pharmacy to buy medicine and spend money? You have two situations: First, if you have a proper job, the company will buy you medical insurance, which will cover all your medical expenses. If you don't have a job, or your salary is not enough to pay for your medicine, you can apply for the medical assistance program in Ontario, and then the government will cover your medicine. In fact, you still didn't spend money on medicine after going around!

Welfare for children, the elderly and the disabled

From birth to adulthood, families can receive children's subsidies from the government, which is called milk money. Usually, each child is about 6 Canadian dollars per month, and the amount of milk money depends on the family's income.

Pension. Before 29, all citizens and permanent residents who have lived in Canada for more than 15 years can receive the government's pension plan. It will be 1 years after 21. How much each person's pension depends on many factors. For example, the minimum amount of security stipulated by the government+the percentage of salary standard before retirement+the amount of retirement tax paid before retirement+the retirement insurance purchased by individuals, etc., several retirees I know around me can receive about 1,7 Canadian dollars per month.

If you are disabled, you can receive the support of the ODSP security project of the Canadian government. Including a monthly subsidy of 1,35 Canadian dollars, all medical care and medicines are free, and dentists and glasses are also free. Holistic care of private or collective nurses. You can change a moped every five years and so on. In addition, public places must have automatic doors for disabled people to enter, and all public cars have waiting facilities for disabled people. Qixi used to take a bus to and from downtown every day for a while. I often encounter disabled people going out alone and never encounter any inconvenience. Everyone will take the initiative to comity the disabled, and there are special seats for the disabled in public transportation.

Language, job and unemployment benefits

The Canadian government provides free language training for new immigrants. The government buys educational resources to improve the English of new immigrants for free. This kind of English training is divided into different grades. Before entering school, you need to take a language test to measure your language level, and then be assigned to a language training institution near your home for corresponding training.

For new immigrants, the government also provides free job-hunting guidance and resume revision, and free recruitment consultation.

If you have been working for more than 6 months and are unfortunately unemployed, it is not because you voluntarily resigned or were expelled from the company. You can apply for unemployment benefits from the government. Unemployment is 56% of your salary and you can get it for 1 months in a row.

Welfare of LGBT and other groups

Marriage is legal, raising children is legal, welfare is enjoyed, insurance is enjoyed, and human rights are equal.

2. Migration methods

1. Skilled migration

Mainly focuses on the applicant's education level and work experience. If my occupation is on the list of immigrants in short supply, it will be easier for everyone to apply again. At present, the application cycle is between one year and two years.

However, with the increasing popularity of immigrants in Canada, the list is constantly being adjusted, and the number of occupations in short supply has been greatly reduced, so it also means that it is becoming more difficult to apply for skilled immigrants.

Second, entrepreneurial immigration

As a new immigration method, at present, in Canada, different provinces have relatively high autonomy, have different requirements, and can submit applications to different provinces at the same time. At present, this method is very popular.

Different provinces have different emphases, and NB province is more suitable for foreign executives. Saskatchewan is suitable for shareholders with abundant funds, while BC strongly encourages new industries to start businesses. Manitoba has a low threshold and can basically pass by submitting applications.

Third, investment immigration

With the increase of immigration saturation, investment immigration, as an early popular immigration method, is gradually withdrawing from the historical stage, and it is becoming more and more difficult to immigrate only by relying on funds.

Quebec, which is currently the largest immigrant province, has sounded the countdown to receiving investment immigrants. Whether it is to increase other requirements or close the application, it is very urgent for immigrant applicants.

IV. Immigrants studying abroad

After graduation, you can find a job in the store and then submit an application for immigration, which can be said to be the simplest way of immigration. There is no need for proof of funds and no additional requirements.

You only need to submit an application, then grade it, according to your performance during your study abroad, and then you can be naturalized directly after you have successfully found a job and worked for several years.
