Abstract
This paper shows identification of a semiparametric binary choice model containing an endogenous regressor, when no outside instrumental variable is available. A simple estimator, an easy test for endogeneity, and an empirical application to US migration data are provided.

A method for nonparametric regression which admits continuous and categorical data in a natural manner using the method of kernels is proposed, and the asymptotic normality of the estimator is established.

Determinants of the propensity to migrate are explored using data collected in a survey of East German residents following German reunification in 1991, and recent developments in the literature on the option value of waiting may yield important insights into these determinants.
