- Former Soviet citizens who were captured during World War II and, upon liberation by Allied troops, migrated to the United States;
- Kazakhs from Turkey, who emigrated as part of the Turkish labor migration;
- Kazakhs from China who migrated via Japan or Taiwan;
- Kazakhs who emigrated from the Soviet Union during the existence of the USSR;
