This article addresses the hip between migration and health and social assistance in Brazil. The problematization of these issues highlights the way in which Brazil faces new migratory waves, as well as the challenges of Brazilian public policies regarding the reception and monitoring of immigrants in country. Through a bibliographical and documentary review, considering the laws that regulate migration and access to public policies, we seek to stress the actions provided for in the laws and the panorama in which immigrants find mselves. The growing flow of migrations, on a global scale, highlights the need to promote access to public policies that contemplate migrants, as highlighted by international discussions. Thus, migration has become a determinant of health and social assistance policies and strategies, specially in host countries like Brazil.
