Abstract

Rapid population growth with disproportionate distribution has led to higher incentives for population mobilization. Migrants leave their hometowns, which they believe do not provide a sufficient source of income, and move to other places that are seen as beacons of hope and offer different types of work. The phenomenon of international migration has now become a global phenomenon and a survival strategy for immigrants and their families. Remittances are an integral and important part of the migration process. Remittances or results obtained by workers are transfers from a worker to his family in the area of origin. This remittance can be in the form of cash, household goods, or others. Research to investigate what affects the level of remittance delivery and the effect of labor remittances on the area of origin Data analysis in this study used multiple linear methods. The population of this study was 100 migrant workers in Platarejo village, but the sample that met the research criteria was only 87 respondents. Sampling was carried out proportionally and stratified randomly. Considering several variables such as age, education level, income level, and also the number of family members. The results showed that age, education level, and number of family members did not affect the remittance delivery rate, while income level affected the remittance delivery rate.
