There are expenses associated with the program that will be deducted from this total salary. Here is a estimated breakdown of costs for the first year:

NOTE: These numbers are only estimates, and may vary.
If you are bringing children or non-working family members, you can expect to spend around $4,550 per additional person for food, health insurance, additional rent, and miscellaneous expenses. The plane ticket to bring a child may cost up to an additional $1,000.
Benefits
Chysta is more than just a job — it’s a range of services that will help you through the whole process of traveling to, living, and working in America.
We start by helping you go to America under the Uniting for Ukraine program, and pay in advance to get you your US work authorization. We secure you the necessary sponsors, and then pay for your airplane tickets to the United States. When you land, we greet you at the airport and help you get into a home or apartment we have verified and prepared for you. You are provided health care. We make sure any school-age children get enrolled into their classes right away, and begin to provide you training for the cleaning program. You do all your own shopping from your paychecks. We offer opportunities to learn English and take other classes for your own training and education.
We never send a person alone, whether on a job or during their journey into America. We always pair up at least two displaced Ukrainians, for safety and mutual support. We also ensure that Chysta employees are connected to the Ukrainian American community organizations in the area.
Chysta is a business, and our humanitarian principles are essential to our work. Our goal, from the beginning of your journey to the end of the one or two years you choose to spend with us, is to ensure your happiness and the well being of your family.
