Proposed Projects

    Title: Refugee State-of-Origin Report (Form ORR-11).
    OMB No.: 0970-0043.
    Description: The information collection of the ORR-11 (Refugee 
State-of-Origin Report) is designed to satisfy the statutory 
requirements of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Section 412(a)(3) 
of the Act requires the Office of Refugee Resettlement 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 to submit an annual count of the number of 
refugees who were initially 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 
United States. (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 ORRs Annual Report to 
Congress. The primary use of the data is to quantify and analyze the 
refugee secondary services formula allocation.
    Respondents: State, local and tribal government.
