Abstract
With the increasing number of marriages between Taiwan and mainland China in recent years, the size of the group that flows and settles across the two sides has been constantly expanding, which requires the cross-Strait social security system to cooperate and set up institutional co-operation and cohesion mechanisms to help more families response to life risks effectively and promote the development of cross-Strait marriage. Taking the development of marriages on both sides of the Taiwan Strait as a background, this paper uses the practical experience of international communities and the developed countries in Europe and the United States to sort out and analyze the current cooperation status of the social security system across both sides. Also, this paper analyzes the existing obstacles in the cross-Strait social security system cohesion and explores paths to resolve them.

Summary
Marriage and family ties have become an important way to increase mutual understanding and promote exchanges between different social groups. In addition to basic society insurance, social welfare includes children’s education, health care, family housing and other aspects, and migration between boarders is no longer confined to short-term expatriate staff, while more people tend to get legal permanent residence permit to become a long-term immigrant. As they grow older, they are more likely to have health problems and there are much more growing social welfare demands, especially in health care and pension insurance (Baldwin-Edwards, 2004). Against the background of the increasingly frequent marriage activities between the two sides and the social welfare needs of long-term immigrants continue to increase, this issue is detrimental to the development of marriage and family cause between the two sides, and impedes the effective flow of human resources; the issue still remains to be solved at present
