Worldwide Immigration Trends Report 2023 Q2 Supplement Series Part 1 of 3

In the Q2 2023 supplement of our Worldwide Immigration Trends Report, Fragomen’s Knowledge Group examined recent political, economic and cultural factors, offered projections about the future, and leveraged Fragomen’s unparalleled experience to help the business immigration community understand current immigration trends.

Part 1 (of 3) of this series examines the key theme of the waning of restrictive immigration policy, answering questions that include:

• • • How are employers and governments planning their employment strategies to overcome crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine?
    • How are health-related rules being incorporated into immigration schemes?
    • How have processing delays been impacting travel and immigration policy?
    • How is Europe handling increased irregular migration and changing public perception of immigration?
    • What are the policy implications of the U.S. government’s continued focus on reducing barriers to legal immigration and what can we expect next?

We encourage you to access this series, and the full report, to understand the current state of immigration—and how global immigration may change due to these trends over the next 12-18 months, and beyond.
