Title IV, Section 401- General Provision
This section allows citizens of Ukraine, nationals of Ukraine, or individuals who last habitually resided in Ukraine to receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) if they were: paroled into the United States between February 24, 2022 and September 30, 2023, or
paroled into the United States after September 30, 2023, and they are a spouse or child of a person from Ukraine who was paroled into the United States between February 24, 2022 and September 30, 2023 (as described in 1 and a. above), or
paroled into the United States after September 30, 2023, and they are a parent, legal guardian, or primary caregiver of an unaccompanied minor from Ukraine who was paroled into the United States between February 24, 2022 and September 30, 2023 (as described in 1 and a. above); To be eligible for SSI benefits, these parolees must meet all of the program’s other requirements. For example, a parolee must be at least age 65 or disabled or blind, and have countable income and resources below the program’s limits;
A parolee’s eligibility to receive SSI benefits ends if parole status is terminated by the Department of Homeland Security. In addition, a parolee’s eligibility to receive SSI benefits ends seven years from the date on which the parolee attained parole status; and

How many Uke pensions have we been paying from Social Security along the billions pi$$ed away on in country Uke pensions?
From Wall Street Apes
Elon Musk is looking for ways to cut fraud and waste from Social Security and Medicare
Here’s a big one:
Biden Signed H.R. 7691 Qualifying Refugees From Ukraine TO CLAIM SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS
- H.R. 7691 was signed into law on May 21, 2022
- H.R. 7691 also opened pathways for Ukrainian parolees to access mainstream federal benefits typically reserved for refugees, like Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), and Refugee Medical Assistance (RMA)
- In October 2024, the Department of Homeland Security extended parole and work authorization for Ukrainians under the Uniting for Ukraine program, keeping them eligible for such benefits through 2025 and beyond if they reapply successfully
I’ve shared mainstream media reports confirming hundreds of thousands of Ukraine citizens are claiming American Social Security Benefits and have never paid in
“President Joe Biden Signed H.R. 7691 Qualifying Refugees From Ukraine to claim Social Security Benefits
- They’re not paying into the system
- They’re not from this country
- They didn’t help build this country
“So riddle me this. How how how are they getting SSI checks? You know, the money that is taken out of every paycheck that we get every time we get a paycheck, that chunk of money that they take.
How are Ukrainian refugees getting SSI checks? Make me understand that. Please make me understand that. Because they’re trying to work us until we die So that we don’t get the SSI check. So, how?
How how is that happening? Somebody please make me understand because the math is not mathing”
I have been holding out on actually saying what I have been thinking about the butt-love-fest with Ukraine. I will continue to withhold out of decorum, but I will suggest Ukraine perform an certain unnatural and physically challenging act.
To be clear SSI is not the same as Social Security Benefit and is not derived from FICA withholding from your paycheck.
It is funded from general Treasury funds which include corporate and income taxes.
This is not to say that paroled Ukes should be receiving these payments.
3. A parolee’s eligibility to receive SSI benefits ends if parole status is terminated by the Department of Homeland Security. In addition, a parolee’s eligibility to receive SSI benefits ends seven years from the date on which the parolee attained parole status; and
I guess this tells DHS what action need to be taken.
At least there’s a ‘termination’ date which no one is probably checking/enforcing. DOGE could make short work of cleaning this up.
When the true magnitude oh how much of Americas money and assets were squandered on Ukraine here and abroad people are going to be stunned
I seriously doubt that even Elon Musks DOGE team armed with AI and super computers is going to be able to completely unravel the full extent of the Ukraine scam
Shows that Congress needs to undo the damage. Executive orders are useful but not the cure-all under our system of separated powers.
This will be the kind of stuff that should make all Americans and especially the retirees who have received minuscule cost of living Social Security adjustments furious once DOGE has exposed the use of Supplemental Social Security funds.
I wonder if this is what the Democrats are so concerned about when they talk about DJT/Musk “slashing Social Security?”
But, of course, we didn’t vote for “President Musk.” . . .
plus, from what was published, the USA is making payroll for the entire Ukraine government.
