Journal of Human Resources, v37 n1 p63-105 Win 2002
Immigrants who acquire U.S. schooling earn higher wages than other immigrants. Returns to years of non-U.S. schooling are higher for those who complete schooling in the United States. For those without U.S. schooling, returns are higher for immigrants from highly developed countries or countries where English is an official language. (Contains 34 references.) (SK)
