Is there support for the transition period in the United States once the translator arrives?
While overseas, an SIV recipient should file the Resettlement Benefits Election Form to elect participation in the program described in that form. If an SIV recipient has already arrived in the United States on or after December 26, 2007, he/she may contact the Department of State’s Refugee Processing Center at siv@wrapsnet.org. They will direct the special immigrant to one of the Department of State’s resettlement agencies in his/her geographic location. He/she should contact that agency to make an appointment. For the appointment, the special immigrant and family members should bring passports with SIV visas, evidence of arrival date, and green card (if received). The resettlement agency will confirm eligibility for benefits.
