  American taxpayers are billed up to $133,000 per refugee resettled in the United States over the course of a lifetime, a new study reveals.Research by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) finds that each refugee resettled in the U.S. cost American taxpayers anywhere on average between $60,000 and $133,000 over the course of a lifetime.

"No plausible model, not even the National Academies' best-case scenario, comes close to suggesting that refugees who enter as adults will be net fiscal contributors," CIS researchers note.
