Average monthly payment to refugee households (enl SoS), SEK

Average monthly disbursement of financial assistance to refugee households with financial assistance. A person who has been granted a residence permit in Sweden on the basis of protection needs is counted as a refugee from the year in which he/she has been granted a residence permit and a further three calendar years.
