The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced Wednesday that it would extend the time “Uniting for Ukraine” beneficiaries have to attest to their compliance with certain medical requirements.
Key Points:
Additional Information: President Joe Biden announced the creation of “Uniting for Ukraine” on April 21, framing it as a key part of the U.S.’s efforts to welcome up to 100,000 individuals fleeing the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In order to participate in “Uniting for Ukraine,” Ukrainians must have a supporter in the U.S. who is able to provide financial support during their time in the country. U.S.-based supporters must file Form I-134 with USCIS on behalf of a Ukrainian beneficiary. The government will then vet applicants to ensure they can meet their financial obligations. More information is available here.
