470 Neb. Admin. Code, ch. 2, § 002
Effective June 1, 2022, if the refugee's date of eligibility for Office of Refugee Resettlement benefits is before October 1, 2021, the refugee may receive a maximum of eight months of refugee cash and medical assistance. Refugees whose date of eligibility for Office of Refugee Resettlement benefits is on or after October 1, 2021, may receive a maximum of twelve months of refugee cash and medical assistance. The number of months is determined by the Office of Refugee Resettlement and is subject to change. Eligibility begins with the date of arrival in the United States, if the refugee meets all eligibility requirements. For asylees, victims of severe forms of trafficking, and Cuban and Haitian Parolees eligibility begins with the date of granted status. The time limit is applied to each refugee separately, not to the unit as a whole. If the refugee applies after the date of arrival in the United States, they may receive assistance for the remaining months of their eligibility period. If an asylee applies after the date of arrival in the United States, they may receive assistance for the remaining eligibility period, after they are granted asylum.
