Another 350,000 Ukrainians had arrived outside the sponsorship process since the start of the conflict, per the report, with many crossing through Mexico. How much of taxpayer money has it cost? Approximately $3.4 billion have been allocated by the DHS for supporting Ukrainian refugees, including U4U funding, per the US Government Accountability Office For comparison, as of 2023, there were about 36.79 million people living below the official poverty line in the US.
