From the State Dept. http://www.state.gov/r/pa/pl/249076.htm

The United States will admit 85,000 refugees from around the world in Fiscal Year 2016:

Roughly 34,000 will come from the Near East and South Asia (of which at least 10,000 will be from Syria);

and An unallocated reserve of 6,000 will provide the flexibility needed to respond to emergent situations.

From GA dept HR Final.pdf

If the state refused to accept federal funds for the resettlement of refugees in Georgia, would the resettlement of refugees in Georgia cease?

No. Under the Refugee Act of 1980 (8 U.S.C. 1522)the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is responsible for providing benefits and services to current and newly arriving refugees resettled in the state through the State Department’s Reception and Placement Program, and to refugees who relocate to the state from elsewhere. In most states, the state government receives ORR funding to administer and oversee the refugee program. In states that do not operate a refugee assistance program, a not for-profit, non-governmental organization receives ORR funding to provide oversight and administer the program through an alternative model.

Do refugees automatically receive public assistance when refugees are resettled in Georgia?

Refugees arrive in the U.S. with legal resident status and are entitled to all of the rights afforded to other legal residents. Refugees have access to and are eligible for all services and public assistance that Georgians are entitled to as citizens and are held to the same eligibility guidelines.

============================

So basically, they found a way around the whole immigration thing. They're not immigrants, they're refugees. Really cuts down on the red tape. /s
