Title: Refugee State-of-Origin Report 

(Form ORR–11). 

OMB No.: 0970–0043. 

Description: The information 

collection of the ORR–11 (Refugee Stateof-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.
