A ‘quota model’ is used for expenditure area 8. Budget appropriations are used to calculate expenditure partially or fully as development assistance. These appropriations are multiplied by the share of the total number registered in the reception system that meet the OECD DAC aid criteria, giving the figure for ODA reporting. People who meet the OECD DAC aid criteria are those who:<br />1. have been in the receiving country for a maximum of 365 days; <br />2. come from low and middle income countries and meet the OECD criteria for official state development assistance; <br />3. have not previously applied for asylum or had their asylum case examined; <br />4. are not the subject of an asylum case being processed in accordance with the Dublin Regulation; <br />5. have not appealed a rejection to the Migration Court of Appeal (final instance of appeal); and <br />6. have not yet received a final and non-appealable refusal-of-entry or expulsion order.<br />The quota used to calculate the aid costs in appropriation 1:1 ‘Swedish Migration Agency’ and appropriation 1:2 ‘Allowances and housing costs’ is calculated on the basis of the number of people registered who meet the aid criteria and: <br />- have an open initial case with the Swedish Migration Agency;<br />- have an appeal case with the Swedish Migration Agency; <br />- have an open case in a migration court; or <br />- have a residence permit.<br />The quota used to calculate the aid costs in appropriation 1:5 ‘Legal counsels etc. for court hearings in aliens cases’ is calculated on the basis of people registered who meet the aid criteria and: <br />- have an appeal case with the Swedish Migration Agency (first instance of appeal/correction); or <br />- have an open case in a migration court (second instance of appeal).<br />The quota used to calculate the aid costs in appropriation 1:6 ‘Public counsel in aliens cases’ is calculated on the basis of people registered who meet the aid criteria and: <br />- have an open initial case with the Swedish Migration Agency.<br />The aid costs in appropriation 1:1 do not include indirect administrative costs. The aid costs in appropriation 1:2 ‘Allowances and housing costs’ do not include re-establishment support and are divided between: <br />- food and housing (allowances to asylum seekers, housing for asylum seekers and placement costs for unaccompanied minors); <br />- teaching (compensation for school costs); <br />- care (compensation under the Health and Medical Services Ordinance); and<br />- other support for temporary sustenance (remaining part of the appropriation, excluding re-establishment support).<br />The costs in expenditure area 14 that count as aid are introduction benefit (including introduction supplement and housing allowance) to former asylum seekers (SEK 109 million in 2019), to resettled people (quota refugees, SEK 176 million) and to people in need of protection who are family members of people granted asylum (SEK 368 million). Also included in the ODA reporting, in 2019 but not in subsequent years, is compensation to municipalities according to the standard rate for resettled people. Former asylum seekers who have been granted asylum, quota refugees and family members of people in need of protection are assumed to come from low and middle income countries.<br />For its calculations of the costs included in ODA reporting in expenditure area 14 ‘Labour market and working life’, Arbetsförmedlingen receives data from the Swedish Migration Agency. The data it receives includes the number of people received in the municipalities throughout the year, divided into resettled people (quota refugees), family members of people in need of protection, and people granted a residence permit after having been asylum seekers. For former asylum seekers, the Swedish Migration Agency provides data about the average period spent in the Swedish Migration Agency’s reception system.<br />Arbetsförmedlingen’s ODA reporting includes assumptions that have been made concerning:<br />- the number of people received in the municipalities throughout the year, divided into resettled people (quota refugees), family members of people in need of protection, and people granted a residence permit after having been asylum seekers; <br />- the average introduction benefit paid;<br />- the average number of months on benefit; and<br />- other assumptions of relevance to the calculations.
