Keep in mind that Nazi ideas regarding settling and colonizing the East, with the Slavs in a subservient position, did not develop in a vacuum. German ideas regarding settling the east were not unknown in 1920 by any means. If anything, you are going to see immigration from Germany eastwards in an attempt to capitalize on the new conquered land. Not in huge numbers, mind you, because a victorious Germany would not have the economic problems that 1920s Germany had OTL and the opportunity would not have much driving it in regards to adverse conditions, but there might be some movement east. The Germans did not intend on annexation, but rather rule by puppet German monarchs with the local German population ruling over things. This is going to provide some incentive for Germans to go east, as being German will allow them superior status in and of itself.
As far as easterners moving to Germany, most likely in search of work, I find it difficult to see happening. German control of the east up to the B-L line of OTL will lead to basically a carpetbagger orgy of German industrialization of the Baltics and of Poland, meaning that Eastern Europeans will likely follow the pattern of other European countries and see movement to the cities become widespread. As for those in South Eastern Europe, or Russia for that matter, I don't see why immigration to Germany would be seen as better than America. For Jews, many of whom were fleeing the violence of the Russian Civil War, traditional German anti-Semitism made it unpleasant, while for Greeks, the Commonwealth was seen as desirable to Germany.
