LEGAL ASPECTS OF LEGALIZATION OF IMMIGRANTS IN UKRAINE
Thus, one of the options for legalizing foreign citizens in Ukraine is to extend the period of stay by affixing a corresponding stamp on registration in the passport document . The stay of the foreigners in Ukraine can be extended for the entire time of existence of the weighty circumstances of his arrival in Ukraine (for example, a serious illness). The disadvantage of the above method is the termination of the term for which the foreigner was prolonged stay in Ukraine in the case of the first crossing of the Ukrainian border.
The second reason for extending your stay in Ukraine is to obtain a residence permit in Ukraine, both temporary and permanent.
Advantage of the Temporary Residence permit is the possibility of a foreigner to cross the Ukrainian border without hindrance during the period of its validity.
The basic grounds for registration of the Temporary Residence Permit are:
- a work permit for a foreign citizen in Ukraine;
- the study of a foreign citizen on the territory of Ukraine;
- marriage with a Ukrainian citizen;
- participation in technical projects (international technical assistance) - this basis applies exclusively to registered ICC contracts;
- to participate in the work of non-governmental organizations of foreign countries, namely, to work in branches and representative offices accredited by the Ministry of Justice;
- for performing scientific, cultural, educational, volunteer activities on the basis of international treaties or special programs - it is necessary to have official contracts;
- for the work of a correspondent or representative of foreign media;
- family reunion with persons who already have a temporary residence permit in Ukraine.
Registration of a permanent residence permit is based on the principle of quotas. More about quotas⇒
Thus, for today, the most optimal option for foreigners wishing to work in Ukraine for a long time and to legally reside on the territory of Ukraine within the terms provided by the current legislation of Ukraine is
obtaining a temporary residence permit on the basis of a work permit .
However, a temporary residence permit and a work permit are issued for a period of one year, and can be extended for a new period by submitting documents to the State Migration Service and the Employment Center for a certain number of days before the expiration of their validity.
