Why Immigrate? Episode 1: "Immigrate to Canada".
AudreyStories
07/06/23 • 5 min
Why do we want to immigrate? Why leave our country, our place of birth? Why move to Canada? We leave our homelands because our basic human needs are not being met. Basic first level of humans need are: Food, Water, Shelter, Rest. After that, Safety and Security. All immigrants leave because they have to.
I am Audrey. I immigrated from South Africa to Canada 25 years ago. I now live on the West Coast of Canada, close to the border to the USA.
I am not an immigration specialist and do not help individuals with the process. I do not do this for money and usually do not respond on social media: not because I am unkind -- but I made a choice to use this platform, of human voice, to give my opinion on Immigration to Canada.

Kanada Immigrasie 27. Verniet geld per kind. Tot $533 per kind per maand (onder 6). Tot $450 van 6-17.

Verniet geld vir kinders klink te goed om waar te wees. Maar, dis een van die wonderlike voordele van Kanada. Die geld se naam is "Child and Family Benefits". Dit word bereken volgens jou inkomste en werk op 'n glyskaal. Wat is die voorwaardes hiervan? Jy moet "Permanent Resident" status hê, jy moet in Kanada woon, en jou kind of kinders moet by jou woon. Daarna gee jy jou "Notice of Assessment" in -- dis die vorm wat aandui hoeveel jy per jaar verdien het. Jy kry dan 'n bedrag per kind bereken volgens die kinders se ouderdomme en jou inkomste -- tot hulle 17 is.
Hoeveel? Net 'n vinnige nommer. As jy $50 000 verdien (in British Columbia), en jy het 4 kinders -- 2 onder 6 en 2 oor 6, dan sal jy $19 000 per jaar verniet kry en hierdie geld is boonop belasting-vry. Jou kinders verdien 'n "salaris" in Kanada -- gee hulle honderd soentjies! En dan, na die soentjies? Dan begin jy as ouer jou werk doen om elke vorm in te vul om hierdie geld te kry. Die goeie ding hier is dat jy nie oorhaastig hoef te skarrel nie -- jy sal die geld wel terugwerkend kry. Kry hulp by 'n boekhouer of prokureur?

Suid-Afrikaners weet so baie goed glad nie. Ek wens iemand het my die "onsigbare" goed geleer van Kanada. Dis so 'n ontsettende vreemde kultuur

Ek wil eintlik glad nie hieroor praat nie. Maar KOEBAAI word 'n massiewe Olifant in die kamer en hy sit en loer as julle braaivleis hou. Die Olifant dra 'n wit en rooi Kanada vlag. Iewers, weet almal, gaan die dag kom waar mens moet sê: "Koebaai." Ek het paar keer 'n traantjie gaan stort toe ek hierdie stuk moes skryf. Koebaai is "the saddest song."
