We are committed to ensuring our operational teams have the resources they need to run an efficient and effective system. We actively monitor workflows to ensure sufficient resources are in place to meet demand.

We have UKVI staff in the UK who are working seven days a week to process the Ukraine Family Scheme applications.

The Home Office has also surged capacity to European countries including Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Moldova, Poland and Romania. This work has increased the total capacity of UKVI across the region with over 13,000 appointments being available for visa applicants.
