Knowl-edge gaps, fam   In like, past decades there's been a ton of lit that's all about how policies shape migration policies (Docquier, Peri, and Ruyssen 2014; Gest and Boucher 2018; Helbling and Leblang 2018; Hooghe et al. 2008; Ortega and Peri 2009; Peri, Shih, and Sparber 2015). Policies included in these studies are not only immigration (or admission) and immigrant (or integration) ones46, but other state policies as well, such as the welfare policies of destination countries (Giulietti 2014; Razin and Sadka 2014). Cuz of space constraints, this chapter is all about migration policies, fam. But like, the reader needs to know that these other state policies lowkey affect how migration laws and stuff turn out. The definition of migration policies, like, according to the DEMIG project, can be like, summed up as 'rules (like, laws, regulations, and stuff) that countries make and do with the goal of like, controlling who comes in and like, where they come from and stuff'

 A second lit case is Portugal, which shares mad cultural traits with Brazil cuz of centuries of colonialism.    Even though Portugal isn't flexin' like the richest European nations, it's still the fifth biggest hotspot for Brazilians abroad - with 116,271 peeps in 20166. That's more than Germany or France, fam (MRE, 2016). Yet, Portugal is like, totally lit for a convo on student migration of Brazilians, cuz the two countries have been flexin' a bunch of initiatives lately to make it easier for students to bounce between their schools. In 2014, the Portuguese law was like, "Hey, let's make it easier for international students to study in Portugal, especially for Brazilians who wanna go to college here." So they were like, "Yeah, let's accept the Brazilian National Secondary School Exam (ENEM) and make it a breeze for them to get into higher education in Portugal." Yo, like, besides getting their bachelor's degree, mad Brazilians are

 So like, the first analysis is all about what makes people move around, you know?    It's for all the countries in the world that have data. Like, it's hella important to peep that we're talking about different levels of economic flex. OMG, like, totes, the countries of origin are like, grouped based on their income level. Yas queen! The choice of income level groups is like totally motivated not only by theoretical considerations26, but also by practical needs, ya know? Policymakers tryna peep how migration gonna change from a certain country gotta pay attention to how that country's economy be doin'. The second analysis be like, it zooms in on the drivers of the legal channels used by Third Country Nationals to the EU, ya know? Recent data on residence permits27 let us flex on the various ways to slide into and chill in the EU.  These are like, the permits you get when you wanna start a fam or reunite with your peeps, or when you wanna hustle or get your learn on

OMG, like there are four possible 'sub effects' that can happen, ya know?    They're like unintended consequences that can be thought of from a theoretical standpoint: a) spacey; b) category vibes; c) time travel-ish; d) reverse flow (when immigration restriction messes with return making effects on net migration all confusing and stuff). That being said, like, hardly any studies consider the whole range of all possible effects and externalities, ya know? Methodologically, like, most of the studies with big geographical and time coverage have been all about looking at the association (like, correlation) between policies and outcomes, while case studies have been all about tracing the causal effect between the two.  The rest of this section is like split into two parts, fam: one that's all about comprehensive approaches that don't even care about different migration categories, and the other one that's like only looking at one policy area, you know? Like, it coul

  Some of the best places to live or trade are in the United States, which many people already know because about 1.8 million Brazilians already call that country home. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says that the United States is the leading country with the most Brazilians living abroad. A lot of these people moved there for work, since there is a need for qualified workers in many fields. The Department of Labor says in a study that the unemployment rate in the US is 3.6%. There were 11 million jobs open in the US at the end of 2022. "Because there aren't enough professionals in the US, companies are becoming more open to hiring people from other countries, including Brazil," says Carolina Leitão, partner at International Career Transition (ICT) and director of business development at Kinp Group, companies that help Brazilian professionals find jobs abroad. The expert said that Brazilian professionals are just as educated as Americans, which makes them very competit

  Everyone who is a US citizen or permanent resident can work in the US; they don't need to apply for a work authorization paperwork.  But if a person from another country wants to come to the US to work, they need to get the right kind of work visa. You need a job offer from a company in the US that will support your visa in order to get most US work visas.  Some people also have non-employment-based statuses, which means they can work but must first get a work pass. People with a K1 visa, a temporary protected status, refugee seeker status, or F1 status who are having trouble paying their bills are all examples.  For each type of US work visa, applicants must meet a different set of standards. These rules are usually set by law, and they change from time to time. If you want to get a visa, you should know what the requirements are first.  They also come with a lot of paperwork and steps that both employers and workers have to follow. If you want to improve your chances of getting

  Someone who is not a member of the United States wants to come work here. This page gives an overview of the types of nonimmigrant and immigrant visas that can be used for work, as well as other types of noncitizens who can get work permission. There is a link in each classification to more information about the standards for that classification.  An company will often file a petition with USCIS on your behalf if they want to hire you temporarily as a nonimmigrant living in the United States. The main types of temporary nonimmigrant workers are explained on the Temporary (Nonimmigrant) Workers page.  If you have the right skills, schooling, and/or work experience, you might be able to get an employment-based immigrant visa and live and work in the United States permanently.   It is usually necessary to get a visa from the U.S. Department of State (DOS) if you live outside of the U.S. and want to work here, unless people from your home country don't need visas.

Like, when it comes to wanting to move, extra analysis shows that there's no obvious connection between overall happiness, being cool with your money situation, and getting ready to bounce.    This lowkey implies that the more someone is deadset on migrating, the less their personal opinions matter. Instead, the basic socio-demographic deets become major reasons for why they bounce.  To peep the vibes of potential migrants, policymakers should lowkey focus on what's motivating their migration prep instead of just their desire to bounce.  OMG, like, it's important to mention that the peeps who wanna move on their own totally reflect the reasons why peeps in general wanna move, ya know? Netz and ed are like the most lit factors that make peeps wanna bounce. These results lowkey confirm that, in middle income countries, peeps who have the dough and flex to dip abroad are more likely to bounce. In high income countries, tho, the rich peeps are, like, the least likely to prep to

  Before you move to Brazil or hire someone to work for you, you need to make sure they have the right paperwork to properly live and work there, such as the right work visa and permit. If you've never hired people in Brazil before, it can be hard to figure out the country's complicated tax and employment rules. That's why a lot of businesses choose to work with an employer of record (EOR), which is a company that can legally hire and pay workers. When you hire people from other countries, you may need help with things like training, payroll, compliance, and benefits. An EOR like Remote can help you with these things. How important it is for Brazilians to follow visa rules People moving to Brazil for work, digital nomads who travel, and new hires who are not citizens will all need the right visas and work permits to properly live and work there. To make sure you follow the rules and laws in Brazil, you need to make sure that all of your employees have the right to work th

Importantly, the analysis includes a bunch of variables that tryna measure how intense armed conflicts are and how far they spread  Yo, like, we also gotta peep state fragility and violence, ya know? Plus, we keep an eye out for any political instability in non-conflict areas. It's hella important, fam. Trying to measure various vibes of state fragility and violence is like, super complicated according to the research on asylum41. They're like, not even really connected to legit wars, and it's hard to find solid info on them and stuff. Anyway, our model can totally flex with all the different types of state fragility, like how intense the terror and human rights abuse is (Political Terror Scale) and an indicator for democracy. When interpreting the results of this model, it's important to keep in mind that we should only focus on the vibes of the continuous variables (like GDP, percentage of area affected by conflict, networks). The cat variables (i.e. the indicators of
