Study abroad at a young age, which countries can accompany you

In the U.S., spouses and children of married international students can apply for a companion visa (F2 visa), and Kugawa does not need any English proficiency test or professional test, but U.S. law states that F2 visas cannot legally work or study in the United States.

In Australia, if the child is under the age of 18, the parent or guardian can apply for a 580 visa (student guardian visa) to accompany the child, which is valid until the child is not 18 years old. However, during the period of time in Australia, the student cannot participate in more than 3 months of study, nor can he work part-time.

In Canada, through the visit visa accompaniment, the purpose of the visit has changed from visiting relatives and friends to accompanying children to study, and the stay time depends on the specific situation and assets of each person, generally 2-10 years of multiple entry visa.

In Singapore, spouse accompaniment and parental accompaniment are allowed, but the latter must be a maternal relative of a child under the age of 16. At the same time, Singapore allows accompanying mothers to work, and accompanying mothers can apply for a special work permit from the Ministry of Labour to work in the country one year after the student has been enrolled in the country.

In New Zealand, students who are very young or even under the age of 10 are allowed to study in New Zealand, and they must be accompanied by a parent. Parents of children aged 17 or under who are studying in New Zealand can apply for a guardian visa. Guardian visa applicants are not allowed to work or study for the sole purpose of caring for the student.

If the child's visa is cancelled, the guardian's visa will also be cancelled. If the school accepts the registration of a student due to the presence of a guardian but the guardian does not come to New Zealand to take care of the child, the student visa and guardian visa may be cancelled.

In Malaysia, it is necessary to have a certificate of deposit. There was no accompanying student in Malaysia before, but many parents in China regard Malaysia as a "springboard" to study in Europe and the United States, including allowing parents of students who stay in Malaysia to accompany them to Paithama. For certificates of deposit, usually MYR 150,000 is required for a tenor of 5 years.

There is no need to accompany students above high school, and if you want to tie it to your belt, stay in the country.

Only the following two situations are allowed to accompany students studying in the United States. First, husband and wife accompany the study. Second, parents accompany the study.

Regardless of whether it is accompanied by husband and wife or parents, the following conditions must be met when handling it:

1. The family members or spouses of F-1 students on F-2 visas are valid for 12 months and can enter multiple times.

Second, the applicant must be able to prove that the F-1 visa holder is a spouse or minor child, so he or she needs to submit a marriage certificate or household registration book to prove that the purpose of the applicant's entry into the United States is to reunite with him or her in the United States.

3. Applicants need to bring relevant visa documents for the interview, including a valid passport, visa**, evidence of visa fees, and after the interview, they need to fill out DS-160, a copy of the dependent's I-20** and the U.S. visa page, as well as proof of kinship and financial proof.

Fourth, the applicant needs to be required by the guarantee money, and if the applicant pays the expenses himself, he or she can provide a deposit certificate of expenses that may be incurred for the length of the planned stay. For example, if you want to stay in the U.S. for more than six months, you need to provide proof of deposit of not less than 100,000 RMB. It is recommended to provide 20-300,000 yuan for the application to be approved.

1. United States: Parents are not allowed to accompany them.

In order to apply for a U.S. F2 companion visa, two conditions need to be met: the identity of the other spouse is legal, and the other is that both spouses have sufficient funds to prove that they can cover all expenses during their stay in the United States. Among them, F2 companion visa holders are not able to work in any industry and study full-time in the United States.

2. Singapore: Accompanying readers are allowed to work.

Singapore allows spouse accompaniment and parental accompaniment, but the latter must be a maternal relative of the child under the age of 16. Singapore allows accompanying mothers to work, and accompanying mothers of foreign students studying in Singapore** schools can apply for a special work permit from the Ministry of Labour of Singapore to work in the country one year after the student enrolls in the country.

3. United Kingdom: Parents are not allowed to accompany the study.

In the UK, parents are not allowed to accompany them, but their spouse or minor children can accompany them to their home country when they have completed their studies. If your child is studying in the UK, you can apply for a family visit visa for about 3-6 months.

4. Canada: Accompaniment is not recommended.

Canada does not have a companion visa, and it does not encourage young age to study abroad. However, in practice, the Canadian immigration department classifies the companion visa as a visitvisa. However, if the child is small, he can first pass through the visit visa, and then continue to renew it to achieve the purpose of accompanying the child.

For a visitor visa, two basic conditions are required, one is that there is an invitation from the Canadian side, and the other is that you have enough financial proof to live and spend in Canada, usually 100,000 yuan a year.

5. Australia: Parents can apply for accompaniment.

In Australia, the spouse or unmarried child under the age of 18 can apply for a companion visa, which is conducive to family reunification for older students. According to Australia's accompanying policy, the spouse can work in Australia, and the children of the accompanying family are eligible to enroll in local schools after reaching the age of 5.

According to the teachers of Bida Education, young international students have poor self-care skills, but the parents of Jackie Chan still keep sending their minor children abroad, and in order to take care of the lives of these children, they do not hesitate to spend money and time to accompany their children to study abroad. However, parents also need to understand the policies of studying abroad in different countries, and the accompanying person is not allowed to work officially, even if it is a master's or doctoral degree, he can only work as an hourly worker and a nanny abroad.

According to the analysis of Mr. Bida Education Zhou, there are two main types of visas for studying abroad: one is the visa for husband and wife, which exists in most study countries, and the application qualifications are mainly for formal spouses, boyfriends and girlfriends or fiancés and wives are not recognized. It should be noted that the length of time you have been married may play a key role in the success of this type of visa, and the approval rate of couples who have been married for a long time is relatively high.

The other is the parent companion visa, which only exists in some countries, such as Australia, Singapore, etc., and the eligibility requirements are immediate family members, and some countries require maternal relatives.

Teacher Zhou of Bida Education reminded that the purpose of setting up a companion visa in the study abroad country is for emotional or family reasons, in order to avoid the accompanying party from working in the study abroad country without financial ability, so the study abroad companion visa has considerable requirements for economic strength, such as a certain amount of deposit guarantee.

At present, the number of students studying abroad in China has exceeded 200,000 every year, and it is increasing year by year. At the same time, parents are troubled by the fact that children are too young, mentally immature, and have poor self-reliance. Nowadays, more and more parents are consulting with accompanying information, and our study abroad experts will give a detailed introduction to the accompanying policies of several study abroad countries and guide the parents of students.

Primary school students between the ages of 11 and 13 who are not accompanied by a parent are subject to special approval from the Ministry of Education.

There is no accompanying visa in Canada, only a visitor visa. This type of visa has a maximum duration of six months, can be renewed for one year, and this type of visa can also be applied for repeatedly, so as long as it is not too troublesome, the visitor visa can actually play the role of a companion visa.

Both public and private primary and secondary schools admit foreign students, and mothers of students under the age of 17 are allowed to accompany them. The mother can stay with the student until the student enters the Polytechnic or University in Singapore.

Mothers are allowed to work in difficulty, and the mother's income can meet the needs of the children to go to school and the living needs of the mother and child.
