Starting July 16, 2023, Ukrainian nationals cannot apply for the Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel (CUAET) visa. Instead, Ukrainian applicants can apply for a regular temporary resident visa to travel to Canada and then apply for an open work permit, study permit, or visitor record valid for up to 3 years upon arrival in Canada. Ukrainian nationals can apply for permits or extensions through regular IRCC channels with standard fees and receive a normal period of stay of up to six months. All applicants must meet eligibility and admissibility requirements and go through regular processing channels.
