Every immigrant is a migrant. They only get called an immigrant when they've come into whatever country you're in, or an emigrant if they've left your country.

An immigrant is a person who's leaving one country to become a citizen in another. They're emigrating from and immigrating to. A migrant is a person who moves around, usually without the intention of permanently settling.

Migrants are temporary for seasonal work and travel from place to place before they go home and are controlled by each state that hires them. An immigrant is from other countries who relocate and becomes a citizen. An illegal alien is someone who does not feel motivated to become a citizen and is a lawbreaker.
