SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The ORR-1, Cash and Medical Assistance Program
Estimates, is the application for grants under the Cash and Medical
Assistance (CMA) program. The application is required by ORR program
regulations at 45 CFR 400.11(b). The regulation specifies that states
must submit, as their application for this program, estimates of the
projected costs they anticipate incurring in providing cash and medical
assistance for eligible recipients and the costs of administering the
program. Under the CMA program, states are reimbursed for the costs of
providing these services and benefits for 8 months after an eligible
recipient arrives in this country. The eligible recipients for these
services and benefits are refugees, Amerasians, Cuban and Haitian
Entrants, asylees, Afghans and Iraqi with Special Immigrant Visas, and
victims of a severe form of trafficking. States that provide services
for unaccompanied refugee minors also provide an estimate for the cost
of these services for the year for which they are applying for grants.
Respondents: State Agencies, the District of Columbia, and
Replacement Designees under 45 CFR 400.301(c) administering or
supervising the administration of programs under Title IV of the Act.
