Refugee-level help for Ukrainian parolees
If you are from Ukraine and were paroled into the U.S. between Feb 24, 2022 and Sep 30, 2023, you can get the same benefits as refugees. Spouses and children paroled after Sep 30, 2023 can also qualify, and some parents or caregivers of unaccompanied children do too. You must pass Homeland Security background checks and keep valid parole. You are not eligible for the initial resettlement program for brand-new refugees. Unaccompanied children can get extra support services.
Bigger, flexible foreign aid for Ukraine
The State Department can shift and merge certain accounts to meet Ukraine needs. Foreign Military Financing is available for loans through fiscal years 2022–2024, and in 2022–2023 Ukraine can use FMF to buy some items not sold by the U.S. government, with required notifications. For fiscal year 2022, several foreign aid caps rise, including to $11 billion, $100 million, and $1 billion in specified sections.
Direct U.S. cash support to Ukraine
The government can send direct cash to Ukraine from the Economic Support Fund. The money should be matched by non‑U.S. sources when possible and kept in a separate, auditable account. A report to Congress is due at least 15 days before the first payment, with updates every six months. Performance reports are due every 90 days until September 30, 2025.
Funds to restock and adapt weapons
The law provides $500 million to buy critical munitions and rebuild stocks. It also provides $50 million for research to add export and interoperability features. The Pentagon must send an execution plan before spending and give 30 days’ notice before transfers. For fiscal year 2022, the transfer limit rises to $950 million from $450 million.
Money for food aid and Treasury response
The law adds $20 million to the Bill Emerson Humanitarian Trust for food aid, available until spent. It also gives $52 million to the Treasury for Ukraine-related work, available through September 30, 2023, with authority to move funds within Treasury for the same purpose.
Regular reports and audits on Ukraine aid
Defense must report 30 days after enactment and every 30 days through FY2023 on U.S. security aid to Ukraine. Within 45 days, Defense must also explain how it tracks and monitors defense items sent. The Defense Inspector General must review spending and report within 120 days. State, USAID, and Treasury must file planned‑use reports within 30 days and update every 60 days until September 30, 2024, then every 120 days until the funds are spent.
Emergency status and rules for these funds
All money in this law counts as emergency funding and is on top of regular FY2022 budgets. Unless stated, the funds follow the same rules that applied to those accounts in FY2022. Money generally cannot be obligated past the current fiscal year unless this law says so. Intelligence funds in this law are treated as specifically authorized by Congress.
