The cost of sponsoring a refugee is two pronged. It requires 12 months of income support for the refugee ($9,800 for one person) and start-up costs ($2,800). For one person, the total cost is $12,600. For a family of four, the total cost is $27,000.
[18] Over 18 years, the cost would equal $306,000 per elderly amnesty recipient. A cost of $306,000 per amnesty recipient multiplied by 8.5 million amnesty recipients results in a total net cost of $2.6 trillion.These costs would not occur immediately. The actual number of illegal immigrants may be greater than 12 million. 2  The estimated cost of $2.6 trillion in future retirement costs outlined above assumes that the number of illegal immigrants in the U.S. in 2007 was around 12 million, based on data from the Pew Hispanic Center.
