Abstract: The ORR-5 data submission provides ORR data that helps establish resource allocation for the Refugee Support Services (RSS) grant including set-asides; overall service information for Refugee Cash Assistance, Refugee Medical Assistance, Medical Screening, and RSS; and outcomes in the RSS program for clients and their family members with a Family Self-Sufficiency Plan. The Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022 (AUSAA) authorizes ORR to provide resettlement assistance and other benefits available for refugees to specific Ukrainian populations and other non-Ukrainian individuals in response to their displacement from Ukraine and entry into the United States. 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 Ukrainian Humanitarian Parolee (UHP) population and U.S. born UHP. ORR is requesting to add the UHP options to the existing OMB approved form. ORR also requests to revise existing gender markers to be in alignment with recent updates made by the State Department to gender categories on passports. Other minor revisions are requested to improve clarity and precision of the Instructions.
