From the perspective of the 38 OECD member countries (which include the US, Canada, European nations, and Australia), the report states that the growing dependence on migrant medical professionals’ underscores both a lifeline and a vulnerability in global healthcare.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
The report finds that India is now the single largest source of migrant doctors and the second-largest source of migrant nurses working in OECD member countries. In 2020-21, there were 98,857 Indian-born doctors and 122,400 Indian-born nurses employed across OECD nations — up by 76% and 435%, respectively, since 2000-01.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
OECD member countries housed more than 8,30,000 foreign-born doctors and 1.8 million foreign-born nurses, representing respectively about one-quarter and one-sixth of the workforce in each occupation. Asia is the main region of origin, accounting for approximately 40% of doctors, and 37% of nurses. India, Germany, and China are the main countries of origin for doctors, while the Philippines, India, and Poland are the top three countries for nurses.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
“Migrant doctors and nurses are increasingly vital to the sustainability of OECD member countries’ health systems,” the report notes, adding that shortages are structural rather than temporary and will worsen without sustained international recruitment. “Migration flows to OECD countries help address labour shortages and support the resilience of OECD economies. Effective migration policies are needed to manage associated pressures on public services and facilitate labour market integration of new arrivals,” said Mathias Cormann, secretary-general at OECD.

The UK, US, Canada, and Australia remain the largest destinations for Indian health professionals. The OECD report distinguishes between ‘foreign-born’ and ‘foreigntrained’ health professionals. The number of foreign-born professionals is higher than the number of foreign-trained professionals, since it includes second-generation migrants and those who pursued local degrees after moving, explains the report.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
In 2021-23, OECD member countries had 6,06,000 foreign-trained doctors, of which 75,000 (12%) were India-trained. Against 7,33,000 foreign-trained nurses, India’s share was 17% or 1,22,000.

The UK housed 17,250 India-trained doctors (23% of all foreign-trained doctors), underscoring India’s pivotal role in sustaining Britain’s National Health Service. In the US and Canada, there were 16,800 and 3,900 India-trained doctors, comprising 8% and 4% of foreign-trained doctors in these countries.

India-trained nurses also dominated these health systems. There were 36,000 Indiatrained nurses in the UK (18% of the foreign-trained nurses); 55,000 India-trained nurses, or 5% of the 1.1 million foreigntrained nurses, worked in the US. Canada had 7,000 India-trained nurses (14% of 50,000 foreign-trained nurses), and in Australia, India-trained nurses constituted 16% of the 50,000 foreign-trained nurses —amounting to about 8,000.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
The OECD report attributes India’s dominance to a mix of factors — the scale of its medical education system, English-language training, and targeted bilateral recruitment by OECD member countries. Between 2000 and 2021, the number of Indian-trained nurses working abroad grew more than fourfold, from around 23,000 to 122,000. For doctors, the growth was steadier but substantial, expanding from 56,000 to nearly 99,000. The trend, however, raises the question of “brain drain.” India appears on WHO’s Health Workforce Support and Safeguards List, which identifies nations facing critical workforce shortages.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Demography|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Demography|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td></tr> </table>

In 2023, about 2.8 million people acquired the nationality of an OECD country, a marginal hike from the earlier year’s figure of 2.77 million. Following India, was the Philippines as 1.32 lakh of its nationals’ acquiring citizenship of an OECD member country, as did 92,400 Chinese.

Majority of the Indians acquired Canadian citizenship – it was up from 59,405 in 2022 to 78,487 in 2023. A sharp rise from barely 15,388 in 2013. OECD’s report attributes this to policy stability, faster processing of permanent residency transitions, and the maturing cohort of Indian professionals who migrated during the past decade. However, according to immigration experts, the statistics for 2024 may show a different picture, given the rising inflation and housing shortage in Canada, tighter immigration norms, and the strained relationship that has lately emerged between the two countries.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
India’s strong showing is not limited to Canada. TOI analysed the data sets in this report. In 2023, nearly 52,360 Indians became American citizens (but this is a drop from 66,670 in 2022), and 40,361 Indians opted for citizenship in Australia, the earlier year’s figure was 30,160. In short, during 2023, 1.71 lakh Indians obtained citizenship of across three countries – it constitutes 76% of all Indian naturalisations during 2023.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
Naturalisation, or citizenship acquisition, is both an indicator of long-term settlement and a catalyst for better integration outcomes. While the report highlights the growing permanence of Indian migration, it also points to wide disparities in access. Citizenship pathways vary considerably — from relatively short resi dence requirements in countries like Canada (3 years) and Australia (4 years) to stricter language, income, and integration tests in much of Europe. 
Indians also continued to be on the move – be it as workers or students. The report points out that India and China have dominated migration flows to OECD countries, outside of humanitarian crises. However, India overtook China during the pandemic and has since extended its lead.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"></ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">
In 2023, about 6 lakh Indian citizens moved to OECD member countries — 8% more than in 2022. Nearly one in every four Indian migrants went to the United Kingdom (1.44 lakh people), where many entered through the Health and Care Worker visa route. Of these, around 39,000 were primary applicants, and 57,000 were dependents. Canada received roughly 1.4 lakh new Indian migrants in 2023, an 18% increase from the previous year. By contrast, migration from India to the United States fell sharply to 68,000, down 45% from 2022. Migration from China to OECD countries continued to increase in 2023, reaching about 3.7 lakh new migrants, up 13% from the previous year. The United States (57,000), South Korea (53,000) and Japan (35,000) were the main destinations for Chinese citizens.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Demography|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Demography|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-lineno">Line 323:</td> <td colspan="2" class="diff-lineno">Line 347:</td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:India|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:India|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>]]</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>]]</div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>−</td><td style="background: #ffa; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Pages with broken file links|MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIA</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Pages with broken file links|MIGRATION<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">: INDIAMIGRATION</ins>: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIA</div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>MIGRATION: INDIA]]</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>MIGRATION: INDIA]]</div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Society|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>&#160;</td><td style="background: #eee; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>[[Category:Society|M MIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIGRATION: INDIAMIG</div></td></tr> </table>

As mentioned in the study, according to data from the 2019-2022 American Community Survey (ACS) — covering all foreign-born Indians in the US — Gujaratis report higher average income compared to Punjabis. However, Punjabis have significantly better chances of securing asylum. This disparity, researchers suggest, reflects the economic backgrounds of these immigrants and the narratives they present to US authorities. The study reveals that the average personal earnings of Gujaratis in the US stood at $58,000, compared to $48,000 for Punjabis.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">
However, Gujarati speakers still record the second lowest personal earnings after Punjabi speakers. “This is because compared to speakers of other Indian languages, the shares among them who are unauthorised are likely higher. And so, there are more individuals who are excluded from higher earning professions or industries. Previous research by Dr Kapur has also shown that compared to Punjabis (overall; not just those who are unauthorised) in the US, Gujaratis have relatively higher levels of education,” said Budiman in an email response to TOI. </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>&#160;</div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">

“Even illegality takes money,” the study mentions, whether via the difficult route through Latin America and Mexico, or by posing as international students entering Canada. These costs range from 30 to 100 times India’s per capita income, making such journeys feasible only for those who possess assets that can be pledged or sold, particularly land. The research points out that Punjab and Gujarat, the top origin states for illegal Indian immigrants, rank among India’s more prosperous regions, with land values significantly exceeding the economic returns from agricultural activities.

The study notes that among Indian asylum seekers in US immigration courts, Punjabi speakers consistently formed the largest group, making up 66% of all Indian asylum cases between 2001 and 2022. Gujaratis, on the other hand, accounted for only 7% of the cases in the same period. 
The reasons for this disparity are rooted both in economic conditions in India and how the syste m responds to different im-migrant narratives.

The study also reveals that Punjabis’ asylum success rate stands at 63%, significantly higher than the 25% success rate for Gujaratis. This, researchers argue, stems from Punjabis’ ability to frame their migration as politically motivated, often citing fears of persecution related to Khalistani separatism and tensions with the Indian state.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div>&#160;</div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2">&#160;</td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">
“Data collected through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) indicate that Punjabi speakers have consistently represented the largest group among Indian immigrants involved in asylum claims since 2001. Between FY 2001 and 2022, two thirds (66%) of asylum cases involving Indian nationals were filed by Punjabi speakers,” the study states.

The study also tracks a dramatic rise in overall Indian asylum claims in the US, from 5,000 in 2021 to over 51,000 in 2023.

In contrast, the entrenched narrative of Punjabi persecution — whether real or exaggerated — is likely to preserve some avenues of protection, even under tougher immigration policies.

The International Migration Outlook 2024, released on Thursday in Paris, detailed these shifts. In 2022, the UK welcomed 1.12 lakh Indians, nearly double the figure from 2021, while 1.25 lakh Indians migrated to the US, marking a 35% increase. Canada, however, saw a dip with 1.18 lakh Indians, an 8% decline from the previous year.

China, too, resumed significant migration following two years of Covid-related restrictions. In 2022, over three lakh Chinese immigrants to OECD member countries, up 13% from the previous year.

Yet, the welcome for new immigrants is visibly less enthusiastic. Under the incoming Trump administration, immigration to the US may face tighter scrutiny, including on work visas.

Citizenship Trends: In 2022, over 1.9 lakh Indians took the nationality of an OECD country, marking a 40% increase and securing India’s place as the top origin country for new OECD citizens.
