This paper analyses the impact of temporary skilled migration on urban unemployment, the relative price of urban and rural non - traded goods, the real rewards of the factors of production and income in the source country. The analysis is conducted on the basis of an extended version of the Harris - Todaro model. It is established that the outmigration of skilled labour affects unskilled workers in the source country. Outmigration may raise the level of urban unskilled unemployment and lower income in the source country. It may also raise the price of both urban and rural non - traded goods thereby giving rise to Dutch diseasc type effects. These are disturbing results for the policymakers in the source country.
