These two words can sometimes cause some confusion, but the answer is easy. Emigration is to "leave one country to settle in another." Immigration is to "come as a settler into another country. Therefore, you "emigrate from," and "immigrate to."

You emigrate away from the old country and immigrate into the new country. Example: When my great-grandparents emigrated from Germany, they immigrated to the good ole US of A.

Hope this makes sense to you now.
