Grammar check please?

Hi,

Could you please check for me if I understand these words and usages properly?

1) Say I am in Japan now.

I might going to emigrate to LA next year. (Out)


2) Say I am in US as a student now.

I would like to immigrate here as soon as I am qualified for it. (In)


3) Whereas "migrate" is a term, works for both way. Doesn't really matter where I am.

I might going to migrate to LA next year. (I am in Japan)

I would like to migrate here If I am qualified for it. (I am in US)

"Migrate" usually uses in animals, however I did hear someone saying it on the radio maybe?


Cheers
