Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study examines the socio-economic and well-being impacts of remittances on households in the Frontier Region (FR) Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan. Using a cross-sectional survey of 270 remittance-receiving households, data were analyzed through descriptive statistics and multiple regression models. The findings reveal that remittances positively influence income, education, health outcomes, and subjective well-being dimensions such as life satisfaction and community engagement. Redesigned tables and diagrams highlight expenditure trends, investment patterns, and the link between remittance use and quality of life. Policy implications focus on promoting productive investment of remittances to ensure long-term economic stability and reduce dependency risks.
