We Are Official Residents

June 3 was a big day as the Varga family became official residents of Macau. The process was long and arduous and not everyone gets approved. For us, it was a twenty month process that included sharing of letters and documents as well as multiple finger print sessions. Nevertheless, the hard work is done and we can enjoy some of the benefits of being a resident. These include:

• shorter queues at immigration
• part of the profit-sharing scheme with the government
• free health care and medicine at government hospitals
• money towards tuition fees (we still pay some here at the school)
