The current U.S. immigration surge is unprecedented. ... Recently released 2023 data on immigrant work permits cast doubt on the lower [US Census Bureau and Social Security Administration] immigration estimates in Chart 1 and are broadly supportive of CBO’s higher numbers. ... household survey data from the Current Population Survey (CPS) are consistent with CBO estimates of immigration in 2023.
