I have provided up-to-date and accurate contact information (address, email, phone number) for relatives or friends in the United States with whom I would like to resettle in this form. I have provided names of my relatives or friends in the United States in this form, but I do not have any contact information for them. I understand that I will not be placed in the area of my relatives or friends. I do not have any relatives or friends in the United States with whom I would like to resettle with, and accept the location that the USRAP identifies for me to resettle to. I have provided names and contact information (if available) for my relatives or friends in the United States in this form, but do not want to be resettled with or near them, and accept the location that the USRAP identifies for me to resettle to.
The following are important points for applicants regarding placement in the United States:
− I understand the importance of providing accurate and up-to-date contact information (address, email, phone number) of my U.S. tie for the purposes of resettlement. I understand that the USRAP will try to place me near my friends and family in the United States, however it is possible that I will be placed in a different location.
− I understand that I may provide my U.S. tie’s detailed information, or updates to my U.S. tie’s information or my resettlement preferences, within 14 days of receiving this form. After this point, changes to my U.S. tie or resettlement preference will not be accepted.
− My placement in the United States will be affected if the contact information (address, email, phone number) I provided regarding my U.S. tie is not complete or accurate. Incomplete or inaccurate contact information may lead me to being placed in a location other than my preferred locations.
− I understand that the U.S. resettlement program will not accept any requests to redirect my travel or may not be able to transfer my case once I arrive in the United States. If I choose to migrate to a location other than the location selected for me before the U.S. Government support is completed, it is possible that I will not receive some of the U.S. Government-funded services normally provided to newly arriving refugees.
− Resettlement, including being received in the United States, is free of charge. My U.S. tie is not required to pay any money for my arrival in the United States, although in some impacted locations, they may be required to provide temporary or permanent housing for me or otherwise assist the resettlement agency with securing housing for me.
By checking the box and entering my name below, I confirm my understanding of the USRAP’s placement policies as detailed above, and I have provided accurate contact information within this form for any U.S. ties that I wish to be placed near in the U.S. Printed name of PA Date dd mmm yyyy
