Olim is the Hebrew word for immigrants; oleh is the singular. It's the term used for those who have moved to Israel from another country. Many times the word "olim" is used together with the word "chadashim" which means new. The feminine form is "olah" and "olot."
At what point do "olim chadashim" become "vatikim" (old-timers)? Well, perhaps when we begin to help others get used to Israel.
