The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to her Department’s recent announcement that Ukraine Permission Extension (UPE) scheme applicants will be able to apply up to 90 days before their current UPE permission expires, when she plans to confirm the start date for the new 90 day period.

Answered by Mike Tapp

The 90 day application window will come into effect through a change to the Immigration Rules this spring.

The Home Office has stated that updates on the implementation of the new 90‑day period will be published on the official guidance page. The most up‑to‑date information is located here: Applying to the Ukraine Permission Extension scheme - GOV.UK
