Taiwan enables foreign blue-collar workers to apply for permanent residency
TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The Cabinet on Thursday (Feb. 17) approved a proposal by the Ministry of Labor (MOL) to enable foreign caregivers to apply for permanent residence within five years after reaching certain qualifications.
On Thursday, the MOL announced the Cabinet had okayed a plan for foreign caregivers to obtain an Alien Permanent Resident Certificate (APRC) within five years of receiving an "intermediate skilled manpower" classification. The new plan also enables migrant workers who work in industry and overseas compatriots and foreign students with associate degrees to apply for permanent residency as well.
Under the new program, which goes into effect in April, those who meet certain requirements can apply to be classified as "intermediate skilled manpower." Once they obtain this classification and work for five years they can apply for permanent residency.
There are two major categories in which blue-collar workers can apply: industry and social welfare. The social welfare category includes caregivers in long-term care homes, live-in caregivers, and those employed in other designated key national industries.
For the social welfare category, caregivers in long-term care homes should make more than NT$29,000 per month and live-in caregivers should earn more than NT$24,000 a month. Low-skilled workers and caregivers must also obtain a work license, accumulate at least 80 hours in training, pass a language proficiency test, and complete 20 hours of vocational training courses.
However, workers who receive a monthly salary of NT$35,000 per month or more are exempt from these additional requirements.
Once a caregiver has worked as "intermediate skilled manpower" for five years, they may apply for permanent residence in accordance with the Immigration Act (入出國及移民法), but they must earn a monthly gross salary of NT$50,500. Alternatively, they can obtain a Level B professional technician certificate, which can be acquired through authorized government training programs.

台灣允許外國藍領工人申請永久居留權
勞動部(MOL)宣布外國藍領工人獲得永久居留權的標準
台北（台灣新聞）——在國內勞動力嚴重短缺的情況下，內閣於週四（2 月 17 日）批准了一項計劃，只要滿足某些條件，外國藍領工人就可以申請永久居留權。
在宣布一項使外國中級技術工人獲得永久居民身份的計劃的內閣會議上，勞工部表示，規則變更將以行政命令的形式出現，無需修改，並將 4月生效。 當被媒體問及為何不考慮制定新經濟移民法時，人事部表示，《就業服務法》和《外國專業人才招聘和就業法》 已經全面，暫不考慮修改任何法律。
MOL的一位官員表示，目前的計劃是放寬對具有一定經驗和薪酬水平的“中級技術人員”的永久居留要求。 據《自由時報》報導，要求包括“精通技術，達到一定的工資水平，並在申請後工作五年”。
藍領可以申請的主要有兩大類：工業和社會福利。 符合條件的行業部門包括製造業、建築業、海洋漁業和農業。 據CNA稱，社會福利類別包括長期護理院的護理人員、住家護理人員以及在其他指定的國家重點行業就業的人員。
至於最低工資要求，從事該行業的外籍人士每月收入須在新台幣33,000元以上或年薪總額須在新台幣50萬元以上。 社會福利類別，長照護老者每月收入應在新台幣29,000元以上，住家護老者每月收入應在新台幣24,000元以上。
低技能工人和護理人員還必須獲得工作許可證，累積至少 80 小時的培訓，通過語言能力測試，並完成 20 小時的職業培訓課程。 但月薪新台幣三萬五千元或以上的工人，不受這些附加條件的限制。
任一類別的藍領工人在擔任“中級技術人員”五年後，可根據入出國及移民法申請永久居留，但必須每月賺取新台幣的總工資 50,500 元。 或者，他們可以獲得B級專業技術人員證書，該證書可以通過政府授權的培訓項目獲得。
去年6月，立法院三讀通過了《外國專業人才招聘及就業法》修正案草案。 除其他激勵措施外，該修正案放寬了白領“外國特殊專業人士”獲得永久居留權的規定，但這不適用於藍領工人。
今年是台灣對外籍勞工開放30週年。 農民工人數在 2020 年 2 月達到頂峰，為 719,487 人，但到 2021 年 12 月降至 669,992 人，原因是由於當年夏天當地 COVID 病例激增，邊境對他們關閉。
申請台灣永久居留 移民署：除滿連續5年居住年限 還須財產等要件

移民署今天指出，申請台灣永久居留，除了要在台灣連續住5年、每年183天以上，還必須具備在台灣無犯罪紀錄、滿18歲以上和有相當財產或技能可自立等條件。
移民署4日指出，申請台灣永久居留，除了要在台灣連續住5年、每年183天以上，還必須具備在台灣無犯罪紀錄、滿18歲以上和有相當財產或技能可自立等條件。
有民眾在網路社群Dcard論壇發文詢問「只要在台灣住連續5年，每年183天以上，這樣就能申請永久居留了嗎？」移民署今天發布新聞稿對此說明，外國人持居留證在台合法居留逾5年，每年居住183天以上，只是申請永久居留的基本要件。
移民署說明，依據入出國及移民法相關規定，申請永久居留證仍須具備在台無犯罪紀錄，18歲以上、符合台灣利益及需有足以自立的相當財產或技能等要件。
移民署並指出，現行財產或技能的相關規範，包括最近1年薪資達基本薪資2倍、在台灣的動產或不動產估價總額逾新台幣500萬元，或考取台灣政府機關核發的專門職業及技術人員或技能檢定證明等。
為配合政府整體留才攬才政策，移民署表示，針對近年外籍人士具備「高級專業人才」資格者，在申請永久居留時，得不受前述5年居留期間的限制，另其配偶及未成年子女或因身心障礙無法自理的成年子女也可同時申請。
同時，外籍人士若具特定專業人才資格者，在申請永久居留時，則僅須合法連續居留3年，平均每年居住183天，若經許可永久居留，配偶及未成年子女或因身心障礙無法自理的成年子女於居住滿3年後，也可以申請永久居留。
移民署說，未來將持續配合政府延攬外籍專業人才來台，鬆綁相關規定，並努力營造友善的國際移民環境，以吸引相關人才來台深耕發展。
