OMB No.: 0970–NEW. Description: Description: The United States (U.S.) Repatriation Program was established by Title XI, Section 1113 of the Social Security Act (Assistance for U.S. Citizens Returned from Foreign Countries) to provide temporary assistance to U.S. citizens and their dependents who have been identified by the Department of State (DOS) as having returned, or been brought from a foreign country to the U.S. because of destitution, illness, war, threat of war, or a similar crisis, and are without available resources immediately accessible to meet their needs. The Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services was provided with the authority to administer this Program. On or about 1994, this authority was delegated by the HHS Secretary to the Administration for Children and Families and later redelegated to the Office of Refugee Resettlement. The Repatriation Program works with States, Federal agencies, and non-governmental organizations to provide eligible individuals with temporary assistance for up to 90-days. This assistance is in the form of a loan and must be repaid to the Federal Government. The Program was later expanded in response to legislation enacted by Congress to address the particular needs of persons with mental illness (24 U.S.C. 321 through 329). Further refinements occurred in response to Executive Order (EO) 11490 (as amended) where HHS was given the responsibility to ‘‘develop plans and procedures for assistance at ports of entry to U.S. personnel evacuated from overseas areas, their onward movement to final destination, and follow-up assistance after arrival at final destination.’’ In addition, under EO 12656 (53 CFR 47491), ‘‘Assignment of VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:48 Jul 03, 2012 Jkt 226001 emergency preparedness responsibilities’’, HHS was given the lead responsibility to develop plans and procedures in order to provide assistance to U.S. citizens or others evacuated from overseas areas. Overall, the Program manages two major activities, Emergency and Nonemergency Repatriation Activities. The ongoing routine arrivals of individual repatriates and the repatriation of individuals with mental illness constitute the Program Non-emergency activities. Emergency activities are comprised of group repatriations (evacuations of 50–500 individuals) and emergency repatriations (evacuations of 500 or more individuals). Operationally, these activities involve different kinds of preparation, resources, and implementation. However, the core Program policies and administrative procedures are essentially the same. 1. The U.S. Repatriation Program Emergency and Group Processing Form: Under 45 CFR parts 211 and 212, ORR is to make findings setting forth the pertinent facts and conclusions according to established standards to determine whether an individual is an eligible person. This form allows authorized staff to gather necessary information to determine eligibility and to identify the services that need to be provided. This form is to be utilized during emergencies and group repatriations. Individuals interested in receiving Repatriation assistance will complete appropriate portions of this form. State personnel will utilize this form as a guide to perform an initial assessment and to identify the type of services an eligibility person might be able to receive. Furthermore, an authorized federal staff from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) will make final eligibility determination by completing the appropriate section of this form. 2. The U.S. Repatriation Program Privacy and Repayment Agreement Form: Under 45 CFR parts 211 and 212, individuals who receive Program assistance are required to repay the federal government for the cost associated to the services received. This form authorizes ORR to release personal identifiable information to partners for the purpose of providing services to eligible repatriates. In addition, through this form eligible repatriates agree to accept services under the terms and conditions of the Program. Specifically, eligible repatriates commit to repay the federal government for all services received while in the Program. This form is to be completed by eligible repatriates or authorized legal custodian. Exception applies to minors PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 39709 and individuals eligible under 45 CFR part 211 when no legal custodian is identified. 3.

This form is to be completed by eligible repatriates or authorized legal custodian. Exception applies to minors and individuals eligible under 45 CFR part 211 when no legal custodian is identified. 4. The U.S. Repatriation Program Emergency Reimbursement Form: Under Section 1113 of the Social Security Act, ORR is authorized to provide temporary assistance directly or through utilization of the services and facilities of appropriate public or private agencies and organizations, in accordance with agreements providing for payment, in advance or by way of reimbursement, as may be determined by ORR. This form is to be utilized and completed by ORR partners to request reimbursement of reasonable and allowable costs, both administrative and actual temporary services, associated to services provided under the Program Emergency activities. For the purpose of this document, the word partner has the same meaning of ‘‘agency.’’ Definition is found under 45 CFR 212.1 (i). 5. The U.S. Repatriation Program Non-emergency Reimbursement Form: Under Section 1113 of the Social Security Act, ORR is authorized to provide temporary assistance directly or through utilization of the services and facilities of appropriate public or private agencies and organizations, in accordance with agreements providing for payment, in advance or by way of reimbursement, as may be determined by ORR. This form is to be utilized and completed by ORR partners to request reimbursement of reasonable and allowable costs, both administrative and actual temporary services, associated to services provided under the Program non-emergency activities. 6.

    Title: U.S. Repatriation Program Forms.
    OMB No.: 0970-NEW.
    Description: Description: The United States (U.S.) Repatriation 
Program was established by Title XI, Section 1113 of the Social 
Security Act (Assistance for U.S. Citizens Returned from Foreign 
Countries) to provide temporary assistance to U.S. citizens and their 
dependents who have been identified by the Department of State (DOS) as 
having returned, or been brought from a foreign country to the U.S. 
because of destitution, illness, war, threat of war, or a similar 
crisis, and are without available resources immediately accessible to 
meet their needs. The Secretary of the Department of Health and Human 
Services was provided with the authority to administer this Program. On 
or about 1994, this authority was delegated by the HHS Secretary to the 
Administration for Children and Families and later re-delegated to the 
Office of Refugee Resettlement. The Repatriation Program works with 
States, Federal agencies, and non-governmental organizations to provide 
eligible individuals with temporary assistance for up to 90-days. This 
assistance is in the form of a loan and must be repaid to the Federal 
Government.
    The Program was later expanded in response to legislation enacted 
by Congress to address the particular needs of persons with mental 
illness (24 U.S.C. 321 through 329). Further refinements occurred in 
response to Executive Order (EO) 11490 (as amended) where HHS was given 
the responsibility to ``develop plans and procedures for assistance at 
ports of entry to U.S. personnel evacuated from overseas areas, their 
onward movement to final destination, and follow-up assistance after 
arrival at final destination.'' In addition, under EO 12656 (53 CFR 
47491), ``Assignment of emergency preparedness responsibilities'', HHS 
was given the lead responsibility to develop plans and procedures in 
order to provide assistance to U.S. citizens or others evacuated from 
overseas areas.
    Overall, the Program manages two major activities, Emergency and 
Non-emergency Repatriation Activities. The ongoing routine arrivals of 
individual repatriates and the repatriation of individuals with mental 
illness constitute the Program Non-emergency activities. Emergency 
activities are comprised of group repatriations (evacuations of 50-500

individuals). Operationally, these activities involve different kinds 
of preparation, resources, and implementation. However, the core
