Jersey is not adopting the UK's 'Homes for Ukraine' scheme.
There - people,business and charities can apply to take in refugees, even those with no family ties to the country.
The get £350 a month for providing shelter for at least six months.
Chief Minister Senator John Le Fondre says it is difficult to directly translate the UK scheme into a Jersey one;
"We have to make sure... that the right support, and that isn't just financial, that's medical, educational, potentially dealing with people who have been through severe trauma, are in place for those people who are coming."
Family members of Ukrainian nationals living in Jersey can apply for a visa to seek refuge in the island.
12 Ukrainian nationals have arrived in Jersey under the island's 'Ukraine Family Scheme' so far, with more set to follow.
"We have got to make sure we have got big financial support for helping people off-island (and) we have got to make sure we are in the right place to assist those people who are coming into the island first."
Government Chief Executive Suzanne Wylie told a Scrutiny hearing this week that Ukrainian refugees arriving in Jersey will be able to stay for up to three years, will be registered to work and will receive a £500 resettlement grant.
On 8 March Jersey's government asked that any islanders able to house people fleeing the conflict register their interest.
Within days, scores of families had put their names forward.
Guernsey's authorities have said they are continuing to work on adopting the UK's Homes for Ukraine scheme. More than 200 people there have registered to shelter refugees.
Jersey's government has pledged £1 million in aid, while Jersey Overseas Aid has given a further £360,000 to humanitarian agencies.
The Bailiff's Ukraine Appeal has raised more than £500,000.
Meanwhile, Jersey's External Relations Minister has confirmed that nearly £260 million of Russian assets have been frozen here since the invasion began last month.
Sanctions have been imposed on hundreds of Russian people and businesses linked to Putin's regime.
Senator Ian Gorst says the up-to-date value of frozen assets will be published at the end of each month, with a first report due to be shared next week.
