This paper analyzes return intentions of temporary migrants. An intertemporal model will be developed where the point of return to the home country is endogenous. Hypotheses implied by the theory are then empirically tested, using micro data on migrant workers to Germany. The empirical analysis follows two steps: first, the intention of the migrant whether or not to return is analyzed. Secondly, the length of expected duration of those who want to return is investigated. The empirical results are consistent with the implications of the theory.
