The chapters in this dissertation confer attention to the labor-market wage and health insurance outcomes of two specific immigrant groups in the United States. Specifically, I distinguish between immigrants who arrive in the U.S. as refugees and other documented immigrants. Economic studies using relatively large samples of refugees have been few and far between. In the following chapters, I use an innovative method to identify refugees in the U.S. Census data. This distinction in immigrant type is important as the two groups differ considerably in their pre-migration conditions and the manner in which the U.S. government treats them upon arrival.

The chapters in this dissertation confer attention to the labor-market wage and health insurance outcomes of two specific immigrant groups in the United States. Specifically, I distinguish between immigrants who arrive in the U.S. as refugees and other documented immigrants. Economic studies using relatively large samples of refugees have been few and far between. In the following chapters, I use an innovative method to identify refugees in the U.S. Census data. This distinction in immigrant type is important as the two groups differ considerably in their pre-migration conditions and the manner in which the U.S. government treats them upon arrival.

The 1996 Welfare reforms in the U.S. brought some important changes to the welfare eligibility laws with respect to immigration status. All immigrants entering the country after August 1996 are barred from welfare until naturalization. The only exceptions to this rule are refugee immigrants. The chapters here exploit this difference in welfare eligibility for the two groups and the variability in welfare generosity between states to explain the differences in outcomes for refugees and non-refugee immigrants.

I find that among the most recent and youngest immigrants, wages for refugees increase at faster rates than those for non-refugee immigrants. This disparity is greater in the period when only refugees qualified for welfare. With respect to welfare participation itself, I find high rates of enrollment among refugees in programs like Medicaid. Participation is predominantly driven by local economic conditions. As such, during improved economic times, refugees are likely to opt out of Medicaid and enroll in private health insurance. In the final chapter, my co-author and I find that among recent immigrants, refugee wages tend to be higher in the lower tails and lower in the upper tails of the wage distributions. Wage differentials in the lower tails, we find, arise from differences in returns to human capital characteristics for the two immigrant groups and not composition effects. Consistent with this finding, we also notice that the wage differentials are more favorable to refugees in states with more generous welfare programs and where per head expenditures on refugees are higher.
