The 2016 Yearbook of Immigration Statistics is a collection of tables about immigration for the fiscal year.
The yearbook tables include data about:
Foreign nationals who came to the United States during a fiscal year. This includes lawful permanent residents, temporary visitors (nonimmigrants), refugees and asylees, and naturalizations.
Immigration enforcement actions, including noncitizen apprehensions, removals, and returns.
We release data tables as they become available. We release the final yearbook once all data tables are final.
This yearbook uses outdated terminology. We have kept it as approved.
