Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has made an estimate of how many Ukrainian refugees will apply for a UK visa.

The Government has set no limit on the number of Ukrainians fleeing the Russian invasion who can come to the UK.

In response to the invasion, the Government has set up the Ukraine Family Scheme and the Homes for Ukraine Scheme.

There is no limit to the number of individuals who can come to the UK via the Ukraine Family Scheme, provided they are eligible, and no limit to the number of Ukrainians who can come to the UK having secured a sponsor under the Homes for Ukraine Scheme.

Given the fluid situation on the ground in Ukraine it is impossible to give a precise estimate of how many will take up the two schemes on offer.
