This program has not posted a new grant opportunity since August 2022. The most recent solicitation, DHS-22-OS-009-001, closed on August 24, 2022, and was restricted to City/Township Governments, State Governments, Special District Governments, and County Governments. The program is not actively recruiting new applicants at this time. The portfolio shows 21 total awards spanning from October 2003 to September 2022, with activity concentrated in 2014–2017 and a final cohort in 2022. Award frequency declined substantially after 2017, with only two awards issued in 2022 before the program appears to have concluded.

The Department of Homeland Security US Citizen and Immigration Services issued 19 awards totaling $106.6 million in federal dollars obligated, while the Department of Homeland Security Office of Procurement Operations issued 2 awards totaling $2.8 million. Combined federal dollars obligated reach $109.4 million. The assistance-type mix is predominantly Cooperative Agreements (86 percent, 18 awards) with a smaller share of Project Grants (14 percent, 3 awards).

Representative awards include reimbursement to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority for $1,250,549 (Project Grant 22CIOAW00001) covering expenses at Dulles International Airport from August 16, 2021, through September 10, 2021, when the airport received over 200 flights and 52,000 Afghan evacuees, including facility modifications for COVID-19 compliance, personnel overtime, public safety, transportation, and custodial services. An earlier award of $9,730,932 (Cooperative Agreement 2014CI00900000104) supported the Cuban/Haitian Entrant Program in 2017. Awards historically ranged from approximately $3.9 million to $13.5 million.
