Process

How Our Process Works

Every Kyiv Pathway engagement follows a defined sequence: assessment before application, written scope before any fees beyond assessment, documents verified before submission. Here is the full process, stage by stage.

01

Eligibility Assessment

You submit a brief profile — nationality, qualifications, employment situation, whether you have a Ukrainian employer, your migration history. We produce a written assessment identifying which routes are legally available to your situation, which are not, and what risks apply. This assessment is a document, not a verbal promise.

The assessment covers: whether your qualifications and work history meet the criteria for a Ukrainian work permit for the offered role; whether your migration history (prior refusals, overstays, deportations) creates any legal obstacles; whether the employment situation described is consistent with a legitimate work permit pathway; and if not eligible, what the barriers are and whether any alternative pathways exist.

Cost: $30. Turnaround: 2–3 working days. Output: written eligibility report. This stage is standalone — you can read the assessment and decide not to proceed. The $30 is not a deposit against future services. If the assessment concludes you are not eligible, that is a complete service — not a preliminary to selling you something else.

02

Scope Agreement

If you wish to proceed, we agree on a specific scope of work in writing. The scope document specifies exactly what we will do, what you will provide, the fee, the timeline, and what constitutes completion. Scope creep does not happen because the scope is fixed before any work begins.

The scope also specifies what is outside our scope — including anything that requires a third party (apostille, notarisation, BMET clearance). We do not promise to deliver things that depend on third-party actions we cannot control. We describe them accurately and tell you what to expect.

You do not pay for any service beyond the assessment until you have read, agreed, and signed the scope of work. This is not a standard form — it is specific to your case. No surprises mid-engagement. If something outside the agreed scope arises, we flag it and agree the additional scope and fee before proceeding.

03

Employer Verification (where applicable)

For work permit engagements, we verify the Ukrainian employer before any application file is prepared. This is not an optional step — it is the most important risk control in the entire process. A correctly prepared application filed for a fraudulent or non-existent employer wastes months and potentially triggers legal consequences.

Verification covers the EDRPOU registry check, business activity assessment, charter review, director name verification, and business premises check. The output is a written verification report with a verdict: proceed, do not proceed, or concerns noted.

If verification returns a "do not proceed" verdict, we tell you before you have committed any further fees. The employer verification service ($79) is available as a standalone service or included within a full application engagement. Either way, the verification happens before application work begins.

04

Document Preparation

We prepare and review all required documents against the current DMSU and State Employment Service requirements. Where documents require translation, apostille, or notarisation, we specify exactly what is needed and coordinate the process. We do not submit a file until it is complete and verified.

Document preparation includes reviewing every document for completeness and consistency — checking that names, dates, and identifying information are consistent across all documents, that translations match originals, and that the file meets current DSZ and DMSU formatting requirements. A file rejected for a documentation error at the submission stage loses weeks. We prevent that at the preparation stage.

Typical duration: 2–4 weeks, with the primary variable being apostille processing in Bangladesh (typically 10–15 working days through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs). We set realistic timelines at the scope stage — we do not compress timelines to close the sale and then ask for extensions.

05

Submission and Monitoring

For work permit applications, submission is made to the relevant regional State Employment Service office by the employer's authorised representative. We coordinate this submission and attend where needed. The submission receipt is the key document confirming the application is formally registered.

We monitor the application status and update you at each significant stage. On approval, we verify the permit in the government registry before advising you to proceed to visa application. On a request for supplemental documents, we advise on the fastest compliant response. On rejection, we advise on appeal options and realistic next steps — not false reassurance.

The 30-working-day statutory clock starts at the date of submission acceptance. We communicate the submission date and the statutory deadline in writing. We do not disappear after submission — every stage through to the visa application and entry is supported within the agreed scope.

What does not happen in our process
  • No verbal commitments without written follow-up. If we tell you something in a call or message, it is confirmed in writing before you act on it. We do not make verbal promises that are not backed by a document.
  • No payment before scope agreement. Beyond the $30 assessment, you do not pay anything until you have read and agreed a written scope of work. No fee requests before scope is set.
  • No guarantee clauses in any agreement. Our scope documents do not contain outcome guarantee language because we do not guarantee government decisions. If you see a guarantee clause in an immigration service agreement, that is a warning sign.
  • No advice on illegal routes. We do not advise on how to enter or remain in Ukraine outside legal channels, how to bypass BMET clearance, or how to submit documents we know to be false or misleading.
  • No disappearing after submission. We monitor every application we file through to outcome and communicate every status change in writing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q

How do I start?

Email legal@uavisa-bd.com with a brief description of your situation — your nationality, current location, whether you have a Ukrainian job offer, and what you want to know. We will confirm whether an eligibility assessment is the right first step and send you the intake form and payment details. The assessment is $30 and takes 2–3 working days.

You do not need to have everything prepared before contacting us. The intake form gathers what we need. If you are not sure whether you have what we need, email us anyway — we will tell you.

Q

What if I am not eligible?

If the eligibility assessment concludes that your current situation does not qualify for the pathways you were considering, the assessment will explain why — specifically, which criterion or criteria are not met. In some cases this is a permanent barrier (e.g., a conviction that disqualifies under Ukrainian law). In other cases it is a temporary or resolvable barrier (e.g., missing qualifications that could be obtained, or an employment history gap that needs documentation).

An ineligibility finding is a complete service — you have received accurate information about your situation. We will not recommend proceeding with a full application when our own assessment says it is unlikely to succeed. If there are alternative pathways worth exploring, the assessment will note them. If there are none we can honestly identify, we say so.

Q

What if my case is already mid-process?

We take mid-process cases — clients who have started an application through another adviser or agent and need to understand where they stand and what, if anything, can be salvaged. The first step is still an assessment, but focused on the current status rather than starting fresh.

For mid-process cases, the assessment will include a review of documents you have already received or submitted — to the extent they can be verified. If prior documents are fraudulent or the application is in a state that cannot be corrected, we will tell you that rather than take payment for continuation work that cannot succeed. For cases that can be continued correctly, we agree a scope that picks up from the current state.
