The paper explores the behavioural and other aspects of the returnee emigrants who worked for at least one year in any one of the six member countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, and Bahrain and Qatar) in the last ten years. The paper is based upon a field survey conducted in nine districts of the Western Uttar Pradesh. Primary focus of the paper is on the decision of the returnee emigrants and their households in terms of remitting money while abroad, return and utilisation of remittance by their family. Apart from that the paper also tries to explore various other issues like financing of the initial cost of migration and occupational choices upon return.
