Immigration

Immigration refers to the process through which individuals move to a country or region other than their own with the intention of residing there permanently or for an extended period. This movement is often motivated by various factors, including economic opportunities, political asylum, familial connections, or educational pursuits. Individuals who migrate are typically known as immigrants. Immigration can have significant social, cultural, and economic impacts on both the immigrants themselves and the host country. It encompasses legal procedures for entry, residency requirements, and the rights and responsibilities of the immigrants. The overall immigration process can vary widely between countries, influenced by domestic laws, international agreements, and societal attitudes towards newcomers.
