Roughly 117,000, of those who were admitted came via the Uniting for Ukraine program, which allows American citizens to actively sponsor Ukrainians and provide financial support.

About 150,000 Ukrainians came to the U.S. via other methods, including traditional refugee visas and migration across the southern border. The US government plans to continue to support Ukrainian refugees as the war in Ukraine continues.
