Voluntary Agencies Matching Grant Program Data Reporting

The Voluntary Agencies Matching Grant (MG) Program Data Reporting was approved by OMB in February, 2024. Under this data collection, resettlement agencies submit MG Program data to the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR). Upon OMB approval of the collection, the Refugee Arrivals Data System (RADS) team within ORR began building the new reporting module in ORR’s database. The existing Alternative Identifier (Alt ID) process involves grantees creating Alt IDs when Alien Numbers could not be found. This manual process has caused duplications and problems specifically when individuals move from state to state. To address these issues, the process for requesting Alt IDs through the RADS has been updated. The changes in the MG instructions document reflect the updated process for requesting Alt IDs through the RADS, as reflected in DCL 22-24, which is in the final stages of approval and publication.
