Abstract: This paper compares the benefits that migrants retire from the welfare system with their contribution. We show that the immigration impact on welfare system highly depends on the methodology used. Thus, when comparing at a given date the global contribution on public budget with all transfers received, immigrants appear relatively favored by the redistributive system. However, the global impact of immigration on public finance is slightly positive in the long run given the perpetual provision of working age people as well as the consideration of the net contribution of migrants? offspring.
