According to U.S. population projections from the Pew Research Center, "as younger immigrants age into the elderly group [aged 65 and older], they will make up a growing share of that population. In 2050, 16 million of the projected 81 million elderly will be foreign born, about 20%; in 2005, only 10% of the 37 million elderly were foreign born." (p. 14)

The Pew Research Center's projections for the period from 2005 to 2050 are derived from U.S. Census and Social Security data and are based on detailed assumptions about patterns in births, deaths and immigration developed by researchers at the Center.
