Office of Immigration Statistics


I ntroduction Statistical data on immigration have been published annually by the U.S. government since the 1890s. Over the years, the federal agencies responsible for reporting on immigration have changed, as have the content, format, and title of the annual publication. Currently, immigration data are published in the Yearbook of Immigration Statistics by the Office of Immigration Statistics in the Policy Directorate of the Department of Homeland Security. The 2011 Yearbook of Immigration Statistics consists of a compendium of tables organized by subject matter, including: Legal Permanent Residents (Tables 1 to 12) Legal permanent residents (LPRs) are persons who have been granted lawful permanent residence in the United States. They are also known as “green card” recipients. Refugees and Asylees (Tables 13 to 19) Refugees and asylees are persons who sought residence in the United States in order to avoid persecution in their country of origin. Persons granted refugee status applied for admission while outside the United States. Persons granted asylum applied either at a port of entry or at some point after their entry into the United States. Naturalizations (Tables 20 to 24) Naturalizations refer to persons aged 18 and over who become citizens of the United States. Most legal permanent residents are eligible to apply for naturalization within five years after obtaining LPR status. Nonimmigrant Admissions (Tables 25 to 32) Nonimmigrant admissions refer to arrivals of persons who are authorized to stay in the United States for a limited period of time. Most nonimmigrants enter the United States as tourists or business travelers, but some come to work, study, or engage in cultural exchange programs. Enforcement Actions (Tables 33 to 41) Enforcement actions include foreign nationals who are found inadmissible, apprehended, removed or returned for violating the Immigration and Nationality Act. These actions occur at the borders of the United States, in the interior of the country, and at designated sites outside the United States. Technical Data Notes The data presented in the 2011 Yearbook were obtained primarily from workload and case tracking systems of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Definitions by subject matter and information on data sources are available in the publications section of the website of the Office of Immigration Statistics at: http://www.dhs.gov/immigrationstatistics. Note that numbers appearing for a given year may change in subsequent Yearbooks due to updating of data series. Confidentiality The Office of Immigration Statistics is committed to protecting the identity of individuals reported in the Yearbook of Immigration Statistics. All data tables, therefore, have been edited to avoid divulging information about any individual by either direct or indirect means. The practice of cell suppression has been employed by placing a “D” (disclosure standards not met) in any cell that would show a count of 1 or 2, or in any associated cell that might be used to reveal such a count through calculation. The process of suppression does not change the marginal totals, so the integrity of the data is not affected.

NA Not available. X Not applicable. D Data withheld to limit disclosure. - Represents zero. 1  Estimated admission totals rounded to the nearest hundred thousand. Excludes sea and air crew admissions (D1 and D2 visas). 2  The number of I-94 admissions in 2010 and 2011 greatly exceeds totals reported in previous years due to a more complete count of land admissions. 3  Data are not available separately for 2005; during 2005 there were 129,327 admissions for H2 classes (H2A, H2B, H2R). 4  Beginning in 2006, annual increases in H2A admissions may be due to more complete recording of pedestrian admissions along the Southwest border. 5  Issuances of H2R (returning H2B workers not subject to annual numerical limits) ceased at the end of 2007. 6  C4 admissions were suspended as of 8/2/2003. Notes: Admissions represent counts of events, i.e., arrivals, not unique individuals; multiple entries of an individual on the same day are counted as one admission. The majority of short-term admissions from Canada and Mexico are excluded. Source: U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
