What are some of the reasons for the major back flows that occur in most international migration patterns?
What will be an ideal response?
Immigration back flows are return migrations to the home country. These returns may be caused by a lack of anticipated jobs in the new country, higher living expenses than anticipated, raises and promotions that do not materialize or higher costs associated with being away from family and friends. It should be noted that these back flows generate potential benefits for future immigrants because they increase the amount and accuracy of information available about other nations and the functioning of their economies.
