Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has plans to enable potential hosts under the Homes for Ukraine scheme to submit family-wide visa applications to house refugee families rather than multiple individual applications for each member of the family being hosted.

Under the Homes For Ukraine scheme, application forms must be completed for each family member, including one application per child. This is to ensure the appropriate security and safeguarding checks can be undertaken.

The Home Office is continually making efforts to simplify the application process for Ukrainian refugees, and it keeps this under regular review.
