This article presents the results of preliminary research about the situation of asylum seekers in Poland; their legal regulations, financial standing, organization of free time at the refugee centres. It also describes the survey outcomes on reasons for leaving one's country of origin, reasons for choosing Poland as the country of refugee migration, as well as possibility of going back to their homeland. There are four important conclusions. First of all, there are new challenges for the Polish refugee policies since 2003. Secondly, the demographic makeup of the respondent group should be taken into account: a relatively young age, gender balance and families with many children explain economic prerequisites associated with the desire to improve the standard of living . Thirdly, it is difficult for these migrants to improve their job skills and they don't have enough money to do something with their free time. Fourthly, the results of the research could be useful to develop more diverse integration programmes addressed to selected groups of refugees.
