answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/03/2024 answer text <p>Although given consideration, it is not feasible to extend Ukraine scheme visas automatically. Automatic extension would require Ukrainians to confirm their residence in the UK and their willingness to have a visa extended, and so the possible customer benefits, and savings in process time, would be limited. Without requiring a registration process there would be a risk of not being able to contact all the eligible individuals which could lead to some Ukrainians being left without legal status.</p><p>The Home Office and the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities have had numerous discussions with the Ukrainian community, and there is currently an extensive programme of stakeholder engagement in place.</p> answering member constituency Corby answering member printed Tom Pursglove grouped question UIN 17111 question first answered 13/03/2024 17:54:53 answering member 4369 label Biography information for Tom Pursglove
