1. Recent Mexican data sources in the study of international migration Seminar: The 2013 High-level Dialogue on International Migration and Development: Implications for data collection 27 February 2013, United Nations, New York

2. Purpose “The Seminar also provides a platform for sharing country experiences in collecting migration statistics and in using migration data to inform policy makers”.

3. BACKGROUND Undocumented flow of Mexican nationals both in and out of the country: –Emigrants, mostly to the USA and Canada, reluctant to take part in surveys and censuses in receiving countries. –Immigrants, mostly return migrants and their foreign-born children. Growing proportion of American and Canadian retirees.

4. Layout ENOE, Mexico’s quarterly labour force survey 2010 Population and Housing Census

5. ENOE, MEXICO'S QUARTERLY LABOUR FORCE SURVEY

6. ENOE One of the longest-running statistical projects in the country. Main purpose, to produce national and state- level quarterly unemployment rates. –Information collected continuously over three- month periods. –Sample size fixed at 120,060 dwellings every quarter. –New entries are randomly selected with unequal probabilities from stratified sampling frame.

7. Rotation pattern Each quarter, 20% of households leave sample after completing five-interview tour, replaced by new (semi-)panel with same size, remains in sample for five consecutive rounds of interviews, one quarter apart. Hence, 80% quarter-to-quarter sample overlap. Useful in determining quarterly change patterns in –household composition, –occupational status of individuals, –etc.

8. Common sample in two successive quarters due to ENOE's Rotation Pattern Rotation pattern as means to gauge change
