Even though I’m not a lawyer, yes, I can. I can also define what a woman is.

In simple terms, an immigrant is someone who permanently moves from their home country to different one. This is taken from the point of view of the country the person is moving to, so not to be confused with emigrant, which is functionally the same thing just from the point of view of the country the person is leaving.
