I came to the United States when I was 6 years old with my parents, I am now 27. I refused to get naturalized I am permanent US resident. My fiancé is Persian American originally from Iran but a US citizen. I was raised around Americans grew up around them speak like them, but I still consider India my homeland. My parents are naturalized American citizens. They came to America for economic reasons, I understand, but I want to leave because I absolutely had a terrible time growing up here. Even tho I was raised here all my life I am still considered a foreigner and that feeling never makes me feel at home. I went back to india the first time when I was 24 years old. I plan on returning there in my mid to late 30s with my wife. Indias is my home. I can’t read or write in in Hindi I speak broken hindi but if I settle there I know it will be better. The only complaint I have about india is social acceptance of littering, and a non existent waste management system, other than that india is safer and a much better place to live. I can’t speak for everyone tho I have seen many children begging in in trains in Bihar and of course old women of Nepali origin working on roads construction in the Himalayas.

For some that means they work for global corporations where they can relocate to India and for others, it's retirement.

Life in USA as a working mother is pretty isolated. Kids dont grow up here surrounded by uncles, aunts, neighbors or cousins. Often parents have to take extra efforts just to stay engaged or arrange playdates with other kids, especially in case of small kids. It takes a lot of toll on parents physical and mental health. The lack of emotional support system for new mothers sometimes leads to depressiosn. In India, your whole extended family, neighborhood and community helps in one or the other way in the growth of your kid. In USA, you are pretty much on your own! 😢

In Bharat I can take an auto or a rickshaw go shopping, meet relatives, go to bazaars, have chai with friends but not in USA. I am constantly afraid of getting shot in a mall. Every other family has one gun related death in one's neighborhood. Gun obsession is a huge problem here. And the maids in India! They are wonderful, they give so much love and respect. They chat with you (no one chats with you in the US, they even hate eye contact) and wear the most beautiful traditional costumes that anglicized Indians like English speaking newsreaders have discarded. Bharat's cultural costumes are a treasure. Bharat is the best.

It depends on who those NRIs are. What their visa status is. After living for more than 35 years outside India, I am not sure I am with those NRIs who want to go back. India has made good strides in development in infrastructure and in the technology. What I am really scared of are: Pollution, Crowded Places, Atrocious costs of hospitalization, fully commercial attitude in dealing with patients, doctors employed by corporate hospitals with financial targets, and the last but not the least, wide spread corruption at the ground level. I have heard that there are measures taken to reduce corruption, but it is still widespread.

Once I retire even I want to return. But our children have grown in the West so it's hard for them to return.

Been there done that! I left Australia in 2014 and there is only one regret that I should have done it sooner. Those living abroad thinking of doing this, my advice would be to just do it. The joy of living with your family and real friends beats every advantage that you may have living overseas.

It's a nuanced debate. While I can understand wanting to come back to your home country in your later years to be surrounded by friends and family, what often happens is that NRIs do not form bonds with local people in the countries they are settled in, often restricting their socializing to Indian communities. This feeling of restriction can also cause loneliness among the NRI community since they do not/cannot form lasting relationships outside their own small groups. There are various reasons for this, language, customs, etc. The ones that can better integrate into the local societies (on a personal and professional level) have a much easier time permanently settling there. Of course, now India is the rising economy and the West seems to be declining with contracting job markets, so that will only exaggerate them wanting to return.

I am 73. I used Option A, with a modification. The funds I drew out of my IRA during the years age 62 to 70 I didn't spend, but by conversion, put into my Roth IRA. So, all the market growth over the past 10 years in my Roth has been tax FREE. This is important, because once I hit age 70 and began collecting Social Sec, I did not want my bigger Social Security benefits to be pushed into a higher tax bracket due to Required Minimum Distributions that began for me at age 70

On the issue of health care, especially wait time for emergency room (ER), you mentioned the average time for US is 145 minutes. I will argue otherwise, even if the wait time in India is 20 minutes, just to get to the hospital you would have lost precious 2 hours or more on the road, no vehicle would give an ambulance a chance to reach a hospital on time, it requires a big cultural change to not compete with emergency vehicles. From my personal experience, there was zero wait time for me at the ER and I was attended to by doctors with in minutes of arrival.

It is not any surprise that NRI coming back. Indeed, India is Rich in every respect. The British took money from India unethically. Nri bringing back hard earned money.

They are most welcome to their homeland. But think of it this way.. these NRIs only stay in India for primary schooling and retirement. The majority of productive years where they contribute to society and pay taxes is spent abroad usually in a developed country.

The dollars and euros they send home that is being spent/invested in India doesn't actually hurt our economy you know, it boosts it. An Nri represents the country wherever they go and if the world has an opinion of India being a smart, energetic country it's because of the Nri people who the foreigners interact with on a daily basis. A person going abroad improves their families quality of life in 5 years whereas a person from India would normally take 15 years. And they do all this by sacrificing family time and missing home for years on end.

I am in Australia since 1987, will I have same fundamental rights similar to citizens in India especially voting, buying farm lands etc

Yes, but India don't allows double citizenship, so you can, but you have to give up Australian passport.

Interested to know why you say that. Would appreciate your perspective. What are the challenges of moving back to India after living abroad for many years?

Also Dr ratings education etc. Are in the dictionary In India it's a maze unless you have contacts and recommendation. For every service you need a local friend or family interference. Banking home repairs etc Which you have to reciprocate The Society functions on I rub your back and vs Yes your dollar can buy more a plus

I tried it in the early 90's but returned in 3.5 yrs. I must say that some people's attitude is not that good when you return, they all feel that ALL NRIs are supposed to be rich. Also most people don't have value for time in India - appointments are not taken seriously and most people have no value for other people's time. Well these are my observations. In the 90s mediacal was excellent in Canada. I must also say that when I had Covid in 2021 the ambulance arrived in 4 minutes whereas I heard news of India and it was quite reverse - it took hours for the ambulance to arrive and some people also died while waiting. Yes, at present Canada's Health System sucks - 1.5 beds for 1000 population and the new brainwash in at least Toronto is that the longer you stay in hospital, the sicker you become. Don't people admit in Hospital to get better? Also after a certain income doctors are charged much more income tax so why would they work hard? Many people don't have a family doctor that's because doctors don't want new patients and have to wait for 3-4 years to find one. Yes democracy has failed by 40-50% here in Canada, every thing now is MONEY / MONEY / MONEY. BYT I'm a senoir and IN cANADA FOR 49 YEARS AND NOT THAT SICK - LOL

I live in Toronto too, and agree with what you are saying about waiting times. I feel the speed at which Canada is bringing in immigrants is unmanageable, and this will make it a less attractive desitination, esp when you add high cost of living and food

Can you get into government jobs or run for elections as an indian born citizen there?

Your news is very accurate. I also want to check out India as a place to relocate since I am now retired.

All these people who so desperately want to come to India - why did you leave in the first place? Deep down everyone knows the answer.

Wanting to return and doing it are two very different things.Some will return for a few days and some for few years maybe,Those with Indian passports might return ,those who are now foreign citizens will talk about it,but they soon realize the ground realities are far from India shining and day to day life is not easy,unhygienic conditions are everywhere,law and order is a big problem,elderly are often targeted by criminals,driving is an insane activity and you are forced to depend on others for mobility.While health care in the advanced nations may take a little time,ER services are excellent,ambulances and police arrive in minutes and resuscitate the ill and the injured,including air evacuation by helicopters and this is not just for politicians and their families ,evidence based medicine is practiced by all doctors and there is immense oversight to prevent unnecessary deaths including periodic reexamination has to be taken by doctors.There is standardized medical education and training that translates to proper medical care for all.A follow up story needs to be done in 10 years to see how many NRI’s went back for good.
