Abstract

Migration is the phenomenon that has always been along humans, people searching for better places to live. Reasons of migration have been evolved along the greatest discoveries of man. Nowadays, the concept of migration is just different in terms of the factors which determinate it, but the basic reason of migration is welfare. We employed a Probit model to estimate which factors are determining Romanians to return from Spain using the Spanish Survey ”Encuesta Nacional de Inmigrantes” 2007. Our results showed that before the financial crisis began the intentions to return were so noticeable, although if the person remits to the home country or has a sufficient experience in Spain also they express their intentions to return, this confirms the fact that migration was a temporary one and as the purpose of migration was fulfilled the migrant intends to return.
