so und heute kam die antwort.
ein fact ist, wir wissen immer noch nicht wieviele deutsche mit dem vwp einreisen, und wieviele nicht reingelassen werden/ sofort zurueckgeschickt werden.
Thank you for contacting the Law Library. There are two ways to interpret "returned to their home country:"
1. Visitors to the United States have returned to their home countries of their own accord, or
2. Visitors have been removed and returned to their home countries by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
If you're looking for numbers on visitors who return home of their own accord, the State Department keeps visa statistics here: <
http://travel.state.gov/visa/statist...tics_1476.html >. If, however, you're looking for visitors removed forcibly, ICE keeps statistics on how many visitors are removed from the US to their home countries here: <
http://www.ice.gov/removal-statistics/ >.
More generally, the Department of Homeland Security keeps statistics on permanent immigration here: <
