iv Office of Immigration Statistics

I ntroduction
Statistical data on immigration have been published annually by the U.S. Government since the 1860s. Over
many 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 annual yearbooks by
the Office of Immigration Statistics in the Office of Strategy, Policy, and Plans of the Department of Homeland
Security.
The 2019 Yearbook of Immigration Statistics consists of a compendium of tables organized by subject matter,
including:
Lawful Permanent Residents (Tables 1 to 12)

Lawful 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 lawful
permanent residents are eligible to apply for naturalization within 5 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 determining foreign nationals to be inadmissible or apprehending, arresting,
removing, or returning foreign nationals 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 2019 Yearbook of Immigration Statistics 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 on the Office of Immigration Statistics website at: https://www .
dhs .gov/immigration-statistics . 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
2019 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
generally employed by placing a “D” (disclosure standards not met) in any cell that would show a count of 1
or 2, and in any associated cell that could 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 .

1
Estimated admission totals rounded to the nearest hundred thousand. Excludes sea and air crew admissions (D1 and D2 visas).
2
Beginning in 2010, the number of I-94 admissions greatly exceeds totals reported in previous years due to a more complete count of land admissions.
3
Beginning in 2006, annual increases in H2A admissions may be due to more complete recording of pedestrian admissions along the Southwest Border.
4
Issuances of H2R (returning H2B workers not subject to annual numerical limits) ceased at the end of 2007.
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.
