If most new migrants to an ageing country are aged 20 to 35, which effect is most likely in the near term?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Working-age share and potential tax base may increase

Migrants between 20 and 35 are usually in the working-age group. Their arrival can immediately change the age composition by increasing the share of adults who can work. If they obtain jobs, they may also enlarge the number of people earning wages and paying taxes. This can help support public services and reduce, for a time, the pressure created by a large elderly population.

Choice A is correct because it states both likely effects: a higher working-age share and a larger potential tax base. The word “potential” is important, since the result depends on employment, legal status, and tax participation. Choices B and C are too extreme; migration cannot instantly end ageing or remove older people. Choice D is incorrect because migration directly changes population composition.
