Maria Kondratska, a Ukrainian refugee, described her situation as a "surreal nightmare" after being denied permission to bring her two children to the UK, living apart from them in shared accommodation. She feels this is indicative of the broader struggles faced by families separated by restrictive immigration policies that hinder reunification.
Pressure is mounting on ministers to establish a family reunion pathway for Ukrainians with temporary immigration status, as current rules and decision-making processes are creating unnecessary obstacles for families. Charities criticize the Home Office's actions leading to increased emotional and physical toll on displaced families.
