Petition Grant all Ukrainians living in the UK for 5 years Indefinite Leave to Remain
Due to the current situation in Ukraine, the Government should make all Ukrainians who have been living legally in the UK for the past 5 years eligible for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR).
More details
Currently non-UK nationals, including Ukrainians, are only eligible for ILR after 5 years of continuous living in the UK only in limited circumstances (such as, if they have spent 5 years on a work visa or 5 years on a marriage visa).
However, time spent on certain visas, such as student or intra-company transfer visas, doesn’t count. In that case a Ukrainian would have to spend 10 years in the UK before they are allowed to apply.
