The above selection criteria involve education, medical care, quality of life, economic development, political environment, global influence and other indicators. It can be seen from the selected cities that the so-called livable cities are mostly medium-sized cities in developed countries with relatively low population density. It requires not only beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, but also the ability of immigrant countries to provide better social welfare, medical conditions, good education level and complete infrastructure. In addition, the country's political stability and low crime rate are also indispensable measures. After all, a country that can't even guarantee personal safety, no matter how beautiful and developed it is? It's no use eating without happiness.

Is getting a green card equal to naturalization? All wet!

when it comes to immigration, we have to talk about "right of abode", "right of permanent residence" and "green card". What are their similarities and differences? If you don't understand the "right of abode" and "right of permanent residence" (that is, the so-called "green card"), then you are easily fooled. The right of permanent residence is the right to live permanently, while the right of abode is to live in a short period of time. After that, you need to submit a residence application again, and the application conditions include personal income, deposit, residence time in the country and so on. If you fail to apply again, you may not have the right to live in a house.

The so-called "buying a house and getting a green card" is essentially a short-term immigration policy, the purpose of which is to make you pay for the social welfare of local residents, and then it has nothing to do with you.

Take Denmark as an example. After you buy a house and invest, you only get a time-limited right of abode. Only after meeting certain residence requirements can you apply for permanent residency and get a green card. Moreover, in the first three years of applying for a permanent residence permit, you cannot enjoy state welfare.

In other words, some rules of the game have been set for you, and you must abide by them for three years before you can enjoy the permanent residency. If you don't abide by them, you will be over the game.

many people take it for granted that permanent residency equals naturalization? That's not true. Take Denmark as an example. Even if you get permanent residency, you need to reapply for Danish citizenship. It's not impossible in five or ten years.

Summary

When the concept of "light immigration" was put forward, established immigrant countries such as the United States and Canada were no longer the first choice of Chinese people, and they began to target more European countries with lower thresholds, livable environment and high social welfare.

But what you need to know is:

1. Immigrating to "Schengen" in Europe is equivalent to having a "European Pass";

2. There is still a certain distance between the temporary residency and the "green card". You can choose countries without rigid residence time restrictions, such as Portugal, Greece and Spain;

3. Choosing a country where the right of permanent residence is not linked to the property right of buying a house for naturalization will not affect obtaining a green card even if the house is sold;

4. Countries where you can live and work are more suitable for family migration. Hua Juan Jun tip: Don't trust European countries to "buy a house and send a green card". If such a good thing really happens, there must be many restrictions. For example, you can only run a company locally, but you can't work. The implication is that you should either start a company or sit on empty pockets until you get your nationality, but it will take at least 5 to 1 years. Therefore, it is imperative to calculate the account first, and how much will it cost for a family of three, and wait until you have saved enough!
