Discusses about the effect of international migration and remittances on household incomes and well-being, human capital investment, and regional development in the Philippines. The study reviews the international and local literature on the consequences, including psycho-social costs, of migration, and discusses remittances in relation to domestic incomes and poverty reduction. The discourse is enhanced with econometric analysis that extends to investment in human capital, workforce participation, saving, and sub-national development in the country. The study concludes with a summary and policy implications.
