 PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

Situation: A foreigner submitted documents for a temporary residence permit (TRP) through employment. The application was submitted later than allowed and without some attachments (no properly certified translation of the certificate, no receipt of administrative fee payment). The territorial SMS office issued a refusal, referring to the item "submitted incompletely or with violation of deadlines" from the List of refusal grounds. This item is directly provided by the government decree on residence permits, and the basic rule on the final deadline for submission is no later than 15 working days before the end of the legal stay.

Solution: First, we fix the deadlines for appeal. An administrative complaint is filed within 30 calendar days from the day the decision was communicated to the foreigner. We obtain the full text of the refusal and case materials. We request a copy of the decision and an extract from the case file indicating what exactly was considered "incomplete," which certificate/translation was missing, and on what date the system recorded the submission. We immediately correct the formal deficiencies. We finalize the package: prepare a proper translation, add receipts, employer certificates, explanation of reasons for missing the deadline, and supporting evidence. We prepare and file an administrative complaint. We address it to the regional SMS main office. We request to cancel the refusal and oblige them to accept the documents for review — to reconsider the application. We attach the corrected package of documents and evidence of valid reasons.

Result: The complaint is reviewed within 30 calendar days, the higher SMS cancels the refusal as formalistic, stating that the deficiencies have been corrected, and obliges acceptance of documents for reconsideration. After resubmission, the residence permit is issued within 15 working days (the standard official period). The client receives a temporary residence permit and legally continues working in Ukraine.

Contact professionals — we will help you appeal the refusal to issue a residence permit and obtain a TRP!
