移民到某個國家，就意味著要在這個國家生活，那我們就得了解這個國家的相關社會保障，在必要時，維護我們自身的權益。下面介紹下在聖基茨投資移民該了解的聖基茨社會保障法案：
聖基茨和尼維斯社會保障
The St. Christopher (St.
Kitts) and Nevis Social Security program began in 1978 when The Social Security
Act, No. 13 of 1977 was given effect. From February 1, 1978 a new system of
social insurance was brought into being replacing the National Provident Fund
which had been in operation for ten years. The Act established the Social
Security Board as a statutory corporation with all powers necessary for the
operation of the Social Security Fund.
聖克裏斯托弗(聖基茨)和尼維斯《社會保障法案(第13號)》1977年生效，社會保障項目于1978年啓動。自1978年2月1日起，一個全新的社會保險體系誕生，取代了運行十年之久的國家公基金項目，並通過該法案建立了社會保障委員會。社會保障委員會是政府法定機構，全權管理社會保障基金的運營。
The Government has
administrative oversight and political and legislative responsibility for
Social Security. Accordingly, a Minister in the Cabinet of the Government of St.
Kitts and Nevis has relevant powers and functions in keeping with provisions of
the law. However, the scheme can best be described as being in the ownership of
its basic stakeholder groups. These can be categorized as (but may not be
limited to) employers, insured persons and government.
聖基茨政府對社會保障負有行政監督以及政治和立法方面的責任，因此，聖基茨政府內閣部長也要依法行使相關權力，履行相關職責。這項政策可以說是完全爲了最基本的利益相關群體而定的，可以分爲(但不僅限于)雇主、受保人以及政府。
While the National
Provident Fund was simply a retirement savings fund catering only to certain
categories of workers, Social Security was designed to offer a wide range of
cash benefits providing income insurance in a number of contingency situations.
It was designed to include short term benefits and long term benefits.
國家公積金是僅針對特定工人群體設立的退休儲蓄基金，而社會保障則提供了大範圍的現金福利，在緊急情況下提供收入保障。具體包括短期福利和長期福利。
The system operates on the
basis of building a pool of funds from compulsory contribution income and other
income, which will be utilized for the payment of benefits and for meeting
administrative expenses. Accordingly, the Act makes provision for registration
of employers and for the insurability of employees, self-employed persons and
voluntarily insured persons.
社保系統的運營的基礎資金來自義務貢獻以及其他途徑的收入，這些資金用于發放福利、舉辦會議，或適用于行政開銷。因此，法案制定了雇主、員工保險、自由職業者和自願參保人士的注冊條款。
The Board operates two
offices in the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis. Its Head Office is located on
the island of St. Kitts while a Branch Office operates on the island of Nevis.
On St. Kitts, the Robert Llewellyn Bradshaw Building on the Bay Road in
Basseterre houses the Head Office. On Nevis, the Ivor Stevens Building on
Chapel Street in Charlestown is the location of the Branch Office.
社會保障委員會在聖基茨和尼維斯有兩處辦公地，總部位于聖基茨島巴斯特爾海灣路的羅伯特·盧埃林·布拉德肖大樓，支部位于尼維斯島查爾斯頓教堂街的艾弗·史蒂芬斯大樓。
