The article considers the dynamics of the population of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), as well as migration processes, which negatively influence on formation of labor resources of the Republic. Socio-political, socio-economic transformations in recent years, could not affect the demographic situation of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). In the Republic, as in other regions of Russia the demographic situation deteriorated over the past decades. Deformed main functions of the family, its structure, the increased number of divorces, the growing number of single-parent families, decreased fertility. Fertility decline led to reduction of the share of children and adolescents under the age of 16 years and intensified the process of population aging. The ageing of the population, gives rise to a number of demographic, economic and social problems. An important role is also being played outflow from the Republic of working-age people. Issues of internal and external migration represent a very large layer of problems, both economic and social interaction of people from different cultures and walks of life in the majority is not without conflict. Organization of civilized (adjustable) migration, i.e. the creation of conditions for improvement of the migration attractiveness of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), on the one hand, and combating illegal migration, on the other, should be directed on realization of the strategic course of the Government of the Russian Federation of the stabilization of the total population and promote sustainable socio-economic development of the country in General and of the Republic in particular.
