1. Language problems. It could be that the immigrant doesn't speak much of the local language or they have such a thick accent that it can make it difficult for locals to understand them.
2. Cultural problems. This is the most fundamental issue an immigrant faces if they have immigrated to a country with different cultural values. The immigrant faces a challenge - how to keep faithful to their own values whilst understanding that they are in a new country with different values that they must respect in order to make the most successful transition possible. This can be quite a delicate balancing act.
3. Socio-economic problems. Many immigrants come to the realisation that, in their new country, they're often unable to get anything more than low-paying jobs. It's often the case the foreign qualifications are not recognised in the new country (e.g. medical qualifications may not be recognised unless the immigrant takes new tests/exams in their new country). This can hinder their ability to form a good life for themselves as they stay stuck on the low rung of the economic ladder. Many immigrants also face racial bias, finding it difficult to get interviews.
4. Legal problems. Immigrants may also not have full access to the law - they may not be able to claim benefits if they lose their job, they may not be able to access the public health system and they may not have the right to vote.
5. Family Separation: Immigrants may also get stressed because of family separation, as in lot of cases only one or two people from family move to Another Country and during their stay in new country they start missing their families, parents or relatives and due to this separation they get stressed easily.
6. Missing the home country and culture: The familiar surroundings, landscape, weather, food, smells, people, and way of life are all aspects of our homeland we take for granted if we have never left for long periods of time. Some people know they are leaving for what could turn into forever. A problem often felt by immigrants is the blending of their past culture with the culture of the new land. How can they remain themselves while being successful in the new society?
