      El principal objeto de este artículo es analizar las variables determinantes de la intención de retorno de los inmigrantes en la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid (España), segmentados en función de su estatus legal. La fuente de datos utilizada es la Encuesta Regional de Inmigración (ERI) 2011-2012 de la Comunidad de Madrid. A partir de una muestra de 563 individuos, se establecieron dos hipótesis en relación con las características personales, el éxito en el mercado de trabajo, los factores sociales y los contextuales. Para validar estas hipótesis se diseñó un modelo de regresión logística.

      The main aim of this paper is to analyze the underlying variables of return intention of migrants in Spain’s Madrid Region, who are segmented by their legal status. The microdata source is the Regional Immigration Survey 2011–2012. Using a sample of 563 individuals, we formulated two research questions to determine the importance of legal status in return intentions and to find the main explanatory variables of return intention for both legal and illegal immigrants, such as personal factors, job market success, and social and contextual factors. To answer these research questions, we developed a binomial logit model.
