I have noticed people using the terms migrant and immigrant interchangeably. But, they do have different meanings.
Migrants and immigrants both move around to find a better life. Here’s the difference:
A migrant leaves their country to get temporary work in another country. They intend to return to their country after a season.
An immigrant leaves their country with the intent to reside in another country permanently.
