Introduction of four reasons for emigrating to Britain

One of the four reasons for emigrating to the UK

1. Popular countries for studying abroad

British education is famous for its high quality and strict requirements. Britain occupies four seats in the top ten universities in the world. Good educational environment, abundant teachers and open educational model attract domestic students to study in Britain.

2. Free medical care for all

"Universal medical care" has always been one of the most concerned topics in various countries. How to operate "universal medical care" maturely and successfully represents a country's comprehensive soft power. Britain is one of the few countries in the world that implements the system of free medical care for all. Its national medical service NHS is a public medical service in the world. As long as you become a British resident, you have the right to enjoy free medical care for all. This is an unattainable welfare for Chinese people at a time when domestic medical expenses remain high.

3. The transportation in Britain is very convenient

"public transportation" is also one of the most important factors for the development of a country. Britain has a very mature public transportation system. Its planes, trains, subways, long-distance buses, buses and taxis cover the whole country and can reach their destinations quickly and safely. Among them, London has also been voted as the global taxi service city, and London taxi drivers are still rated as the friendliest drivers. They have rich regional knowledge, skilled driving skills, which make people feel comfortable and safe, and the interior of the vehicles is also very clean.

4. Gourmet Capital

Although "British food" is often a frequent visitor on the list of unpalatable foods, people who have never lived here may not know that London is actually the international gourmet capital. A quarter of the top 5 restaurants in the world recently published by the catering magazine Restaurant are British brands. And immigration has also made British restaurants and food more international. Few cities offer comprehensive and exquisite food choices like London.

London is known as the best tourist city in the world, with such names as fashion capital of the world, the world shopping capital, the world breakfast capital and the world luxury villa capital. You can feel the rich cultural heritage of this country when you live in Britain. No country can combine history with modernity, conservatism with innovation so well as Britain.

Part II British immigration mode

1. Investment immigration

With sufficient funds, investment immigration is a relatively simple immigration mode with relatively loose conditions. The investment immigrant visa has no requirements for the applicant's English ability, work or business background, and his spouse and minor children can apply together as family members. At the same time, there are very few restrictions on investment immigration, and applicants and their families can study, work and do business freely in the UK.

because of the relaxed application conditions and few restrictions, and the international rating of British government bonds is AAA, and the capital security is guaranteed, investment immigrants in the UK have always been a popular choice for China applicants.

For students who have reached the age of 18, they can directly apply for investment immigration, which is correct for studying abroad. In addition, because investment immigrants can work freely and do not need employers to provide work visas, employment choices will have greater advantages than ordinary international students; For students under the age of 18, parents can apply for investment immigration.

2. Entrepreneurial migration

If you want a low investment and want to start your own business or invest in British business, then entrepreneurial migration is the most suitable choice. Entrepreneurial immigrants have low capital requirements, but the applicants' English ability, the authenticity of investment intention or investigation may be required for an interview, so the preparation of the application will be much more complicated than that of investment immigrants.

after being approved, the applicant can apply for permanent residence after 5 years by investing 2, pounds into the business operation and creating 2 jobs (if the company's income reaches 5 million pounds or creates 1 jobs, it can apply for permanent residence after 3 years), and both the spouse and minor children can be accompanied by their families to obtain permanent residence.

However, there are certain restrictions on entrepreneurs' immigration. They can only run their own businesses and cannot be employed by any other companies. However, their families are not restricted and can study, work and do business freely in the UK.

3. Work visa

Work visa is a requirement and difficulty in these immigration routes. Applicants need to find a job that meets the requirements before they can apply. Because the government wants to protect the local labor force in the UK, it puts high demands on job visa applicants, and employers need to be guarantors, and they must obtain a guarantor license from the government before they can apply for work visas for non-EU personnel.

Not every company has a guarantor's license, so international students have limited choices when looking for a job. Moreover, although you can apply for permanent residence after working for five years, the applicant must reach the prescribed salary level in the last year before being approved for permanent residence.

Part III The Impact of Brexit on Immigrants

The rapid growth of immigrants from the European Union and the accompanying welfare burden are important reasons why Britain wants to leave the European Union. According to EU law, Britain can't refuse residents from other EU member countries to immigrate, and provide these immigrants with the same welfare benefits as local British workers.

Britain ranks second in the EU in terms of economic volume and 12th in terms of wages, so Britain attracts a large number of EU immigrants every year. It has been pointed out that in recent years, it is estimated that 3 million EU immigrants have entered the UK, compared with only 1.3 million British people who have moved to EU countries, so many British people think that such immigrants come to grab benefits.

The EU is Britain's most important trading partner, and half of Britain's imports and exports are related to the EU. If Britain leaves the European Union in the future, the British economy will inevitably be affected. As for the impact on British trade, it depends on what kind of relationship Britain and the EU will maintain after Brexit. Of course, Brexit may also reduce the negative impact of EU rules and regulations on Britain. At least, after Brexit, Britain does not need to pay "membership fees" to the EU (which can save nearly 1 billion pounds a year), and economic and trade activities will not be subject to the EU.

For investors who immigrated to the UK in recent years, the trend of trade relations between the EU and the UK also has an impact on their business map, especially the bosses of trading companies whose business focuses on Europe. The plan to enter the European market with Britain as a springboard may be affected by the result of whether Britain leaves the European Union or not.

However, as far as the British status acquired after immigration is concerned, whether Britain leaves the European Union or not has little impact on the daily life of immigrants in the UK. Even after Britain leaves the European Union, it may enjoy higher welfare benefits in the UK, such as universal welfare medical care, educational resources and living environment. This is also the main reason why some British citizens are in favor of Brexit. They believe that the influx of European immigrants and the enjoyment of British welfare benefits are not conducive to Britain's own development.

After immigrating to Britain, investors enjoy the same welfare and social resources as British citizens except political rights. Therefore, facing the possibility of Brexit, their position is no different from that of British citizens.
