Remittances typically produce the effect of increased household spending. Families receiving remittances tend to allocate funds towards essential needs such as food, education, healthcare, and housing improvements, which can enhance their quality of life. Other options listed, such as decreased educational opportunities, increased poverty, and a decreased educated workforce, are generally considered negative effects that can be associated with factors beyond remittances.
