Abstract:
The Refugee Data Submission System for Formula Funds Allocations (ORR-5) is designed to satisfy the statutory requirements of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Section 412(a)(3)of the INA (8 U.S.C. § 1522(a)(3)) requires that the Director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) make a periodic assessment of the needs of refugees for assistance and services and the resources available to meet those needs. The House and Senate passed the continuing resolution (CR) in late September 2021. For ORR, the CR authorizes the eligibility of Afghan Humanitarian Parolee (AHP) to receive services and benefits to the same extent as refugees. The current OMB approved ORR-5 form already collects eligible immigration status or category of individual. There is no existing option available to accurately capture the newly authorized AHP population. ORR is requesting to add the AHP option to the existing OMB approved form.

Short Statement:
This request is for additional data collection under OMB #0970-0043 to collect client-level data elements on the ORR-5 at multiple points in time, which will allow the ORR Director and states to better understand client goals, services utilized, and the outcomes achieved by the population ORR serves. New data elements include additional demographics, primary goals identified and referrals made to assist clients work towards self-sufficiency, progress made towards achieving said goals, and employment status of employable refugees 12 months post-enrollment.
