More than 4,000 Americans have applied to sponsor Ukrainian refugees who want to come to the United States as part of the Unite for Ukraine program. This was reported by a representative of the US Citizenship and Immigration Services to CNN.

Sponsors wishing to help Ukrainians must pass a security check and declare financial support. The number of people who can be funded is not limited, but it is noted that the capabilities of each person or group of sponsors will be assessed individually.

The state program Uniting for Ukraine (“Uniting for Ukraine”) was launched by the US government on April 25. It gives Ukrainians the right to enter the United States for up to 2 years with the right to submit documents for employment in the country. To be eligible to participate in the program, Ukrainians had to be on the territory of Ukraine as of February 11, 2022. A mandatory requirement is also the presence of a COVID-certificate and a sponsor in the States.
