I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but in 1.5.1 I have some pops of a species who are under the caste system, making them migration controlled. Despite this they are determined to migrate to another empire, and I'm not sure how to prevent this. Unless they are enslaved for food or mineral production, they instantly try to migrate away. Has anyone else figured out a way around this?

They might be refugees; i'm unsure how that mechanic works exactly.
Are you sure you are setting that species rights and not say default rights?

You say caste system, but migration controls is a separate setting. I can't tell from your post whether you have turned on the migration controls setting as well. But:
This is not correct, caste system just means pops working food/minerals are enslaved, it does not imply migration controls, apart from obviously the individual pops that are enslaved as a result.
If you mean that you did enable the migration controls setting, there may be some weird interaction between these rights causing a bug, and you should report it as such.
Assuming Migration Controls are enabled, this is a possible explanation. Check where they are migrating too (tooltip). If it is a planet you don't own, from an empire you don't even have a migration treaty with, it's likely refugees fleeing your empire.
Thank you. They are fleeing to an empire that is my rival, so I had a suspicion that maybe it was a refugee scenario, but I was confused because the tooltip refers to it simply as migration.
