Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many Ukrainians received a leave outside the immigration rules stamp (a) in total across UK ports, (b) at Drumkeen House and (c) at Belfast International Airport since March 2022.

Ukraine scheme applicants who have travelled with a permission to travel letter, and some Ukrainians who have arrived at UK ports or attended Drumkeen House in Belfast, have received a leave outside the rules immigration stamp. Due to the nature of this process and how it is recorded, we are unable to provide an accurate breakdown of the information requested without incurring disproportionate cost.

The Ukraine schemes have welcomed or extended sanctuary in the UK to over 220,000 Ukrainians and their eligible family members. The latest statistics can be found here: Ukraine Family Scheme, Ukraine Sponsorship Scheme (Homes for Ukraine) and Ukraine Extension Scheme visa data – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
