This paper examines the impact of the Gulf remittances on migrants' households. For examining this impact, the study had to rely on the respondents' perceptions and memories about their life and economic conditions prevailing at that time. Moreover, to provide a better picture of the impact of the Gulf migration on workers and their households, the present study was supplemented by interviews with key informants in the study area and the researcher's own observations. Thus, the present study focuses on incomes and expenditures of the family and its impact on living standards of  migrant households.
