PERMISSION FOR IMMIGRATION FOR OBTAINING PERMANENT RESIDENCE PERMIT IN UKRAINE

Reading time: 4 min.

According to the Law of Ukraine ” On Immigration “, an immigration permit, that is, a permanent residence permit in Ukraine, can be obtained only if there are grounds provided for by law.

The most common grounds for the statistical summary of the State Migration Service of Ukraine and the International Organization for Migration are:

  • marriage with a citizen of Ukraine for more than two years;
  • territorial origin;
  • the presence of relatives born or living on the territory of Ukraine at a certain time;
  • the presence of parents / children who are citizens of Ukraine.

The first category, namely marriage with a citizen / citizen of Ukraine for more than two years, is inherently one of the simplest categories, since the list of documents does not provide for complex documents. The procedure for obtaining an immigration permit based on marriage is no different from other categories, but it is still considered easier.

When applying for an immigration permit, you need to be especially responsible at the applicant’s residence address. In 85% of cases of refusals to issue an immigration permit is a ” bad address ” – mass registration, does not live at the specified address, “bad apartment”, and other characteristics. The migration service, represented by inspectors, does not understand the complexity of a foreign citizen’s stay in a foreign country. Not all of them have the opportunity to acquire real estate in Ukraine, therefore, they resort to the help of ” temporary addresses “, which are almost always with a bad history.

When applying for an immigration permit, you must carefully prepare the documents and follow the entire process until the very finish – obtaining an immigration permit.
