Proposed Projects

    Title: Refugee State-of-Origin Report.
    OMB No.: 0970-0043.
    Description: The information collection of the ORR-11 (Refugee 
State-or-Origin Report) is designed to satisfy the statutory 
requirements of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Section 412(a)(3) 
of the Act requires ORR to compile and maintain data on the secondary 
migration of refugees within the United States after arrival.
    In order to meet this legislative requirement, ORR requires each 
State participating in the Refugee

[[Page 18747]]

Resettlement Program to submit an annual report with a count of the 
number of refugees receiving cash and medical assistance or social 
services who were initial resettled in another State. The State does 
this by counting the number of refugees with social security numbers 
indicating residence in another State at the time of arrival in the 
U.S. (The first three digits of the social security number indicate the 
State of residence of the applicant.)
    Data submitted by the States are compiled and analyzed by the ORR 
statistician, who then prepares a summary report which is included in 
ORR's annual Report to Congress. The primary use of the data is to 
quantify and analyze refugee secondary migration among the 50 States. 
ORR uses these data to adjust its refugee arrival totals for each State 
in order to calculate the social services allocation formula.
    Respondents: State Governments.
