'New Immigrants' Demand Equal Access to Long-Term Care Benefits
As Taiwan's population ages, more people are looking for access to long-term care benefits, including foreign spouses known as "New Immigrants." These migrants only qualify for national long-term care services and subsidies if they have Taiwanese citizenship, unlike other foreign white-collar workers who qualify through permanent residency. New Immigrant groups are calling on the government to end this differential treatment and give them equal access to benefits.
