| Rogi and Kaili,
Maybe you'd never imagine that some European countries are very open to immigration? In Holland, when you start your Ph.D, you pay tax, and after 5 years of tax paying, you are entitled to apply a CITIZENSHIP, so there quite number of international students get Dutch citizenship after Ph.D. I don't know how much does it mean for an American citizenship, but the Dutch one means a lot for your living, since it is a highly social wellfared country. Sweden, Finland, Belgium..are among this kind of "non-immigration" country. It is rather very ironical that US, as so-called "immigration country" has the most harsh VISA system in the world, and still not safe. |
