He who emigrates also immigrates. As he leaves his country of origin, he emigrates from his homeland, in order to immigrate to another country. Leaving his old country, he is an emigrant, but arriving in his new country, he is an immigrant.

If you intend to emigrate to the USA, better do it fast.  I cant believe that given all the people, especially from India and China that are trying to do this, that the USA isnt going to close its borders pretty soon.  I note that the Indians and Chinese and I suspect Eastern Europeans are moving to countries in Europe and places like Canada (although why someone would want to live in that god forsaken place even for a few months) to take advantage of the increased chances of obtaining a visa.
