RVP for citizens of Ukraine: conditions, procedure and registration rules, necessary documents, deadlines

Definition

A temporary residence permit is a document legalizing the stay of a foreigner in the Russian Federation for a limited period. Migration service employees can issue it separately or simply put a mark in the visitor’s passport.

Obtaining a permit is carried out according to quotas provided annually in each subject of the federation. Their number is consistent with requests; in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Crimea it is always limited. The larger the population in a region, the fewer visitors it can accommodate. The indicator is set at the beginning of the year. The limit ends at different speeds. If it is determined immediately, no more quotas will be submitted until the end of the period.

The validity period of the temporary residence permit is 3 years; it cannot be extended.

To issue a document, a quota is not required, but then another serious reason is needed. A migrant with a temporary residence permit has the right to get a job without special documents and receive free medical services, in accordance with the law, as well as enjoy other privileges available to residents of the Russian Federation. First of all, a residence permit is a confirmation of the legal status of a Ukrainian in Russia.

A temporary residence permit in the Russian Federation is a temporary residence permit in Russia for foreign citizens. In fact, a temporary residence permit is a stamp in a foreign citizen’s document, which confirms the foreigner’s right to temporary residence in Russia.

The RVP stamp is placed in the passport of a foreign citizen or in an identification document of a foreign citizen or stateless person on the territory of the Russian Federation.

A temporary residence permit for a foreign citizen (TRP) gives a foreigner the right to temporarily reside in Russia and carry out labor activities in the country.

In simple words, a foreigner with a temporary residence permit has the right to legally live and work in the Russian Federation until he receives a residence permit in Russia or citizenship.

If a foreign citizen has a temporary residence permit in Russia, then:

He can freely enter and leave the territory of Russia.
He can legally work in Russia and does not need to obtain a work patent or work permit.
A foreigner with a temporary residence permit can register his own company or individual entrepreneur.
The temporary residence permit also gives the migrant the right to free medical care and visits to clinics at the place of residence.

However, there are some restrictions:

A foreigner with a temporary residence permit in Russia can work only in the region - the subject of the Russian Federation for which he was issued his temporary residence permit.
A foreign citizen cannot be absent from Russia for more than six months, otherwise the foreigner’s temporary residence permit may be cancelled. In this case, only the continuous number of days of absence from the territory of the Russian Federation is taken into account, and not the total number of days when a foreign citizen left Russia.

A foreign citizen is issued a temporary residence permit for a period of up to 3 years, thus the validity period of a temporary residence permit is three years.

There is no opportunity to extend the temporary residence permit after three years, so during this period a foreign citizen must decide on his status and obtain a residence permit in Russia or submit an application for Russian citizenship.

The standard cost of the procedure in 2021 includes payment for:

state tax – 1600 rubles;
tests in Russian language, history and fundamentals of law - 5,300 rubles;
medical examination – 2900 rubles.

As a result, the minimum amount for issuing a temporary residence permit is 9,800 rubles. To this are added the costs of translating documentation and drawing up certain papers.

Confirmation of temporary residence permit

A migrant who has been issued a temporary residence permit is obliged to regularly notify the Migration Office about his stay in the Russian Federation. That is, it is not the temporary residence permit itself that is confirmed, which is provided for 3 years and is not subject to any changes, but the fact of being in the country. Here are some rules for filing a notification:

The procedure is carried out every year, no later than 2 months after the end of the previous period in the status of temporary residence permit.
Confirmation is allowed six months after the specified date, but in the presence of proven good reasons.
Notification is provided only 2 times, after the first and second years of stay with a temporary residence permit.

What should a Ukrainian applying for a temporary residence permit know?

A residence permit under a quota is granted to a foreigner if he complies with the main condition - he does not violate the rules of stay in the Russian Federation. For example, FMS employees can check the fact of residence of a visitor at the registration address or find out that this is only a formality. The law does not provide for the possibility of appealing a refusal of a temporary residence permit in court.

If a foreigner stays in Russia for more than 90 days without having the specified status, he will have to leave the country; the visitor will be able to return only after 180 days.

Such measures are being taken to limit the flow of migrants into the Russian Federation who come to Moscow without a specific purpose and do not want to find a job or obtain a temporary residence permit or citizenship.

Ukrainians in Russia should decide on their future status: refugee, temporary residence or temporary residence permit (and in the future – residence permit and citizenship). If you choose the latter option, you need to come to the FMS with the appropriate set of papers.

The decision of representatives of the Federal Migration Service largely depends on a number of factors. Knowing them, a person can avoid making any mistakes and increase his chances of receiving a temporary residence permit. Firstly, during the period of consideration of the application, service employees can travel to the address indicated in the documents to check the actual residence of the citizen. In order for the quota to be granted, it is important to comply with all government requirements regarding the stay of Ukrainian citizens in Russia.

In case of refusal, the person does not have the right to file a claim in court. If a person does not have a status that complies with current legislation, the period of temporary residence permit may be reduced to three months. After this period, the citizen will need to leave Russia. He will have the opportunity to return to the country only in six months. Thus, government authorities seek to limit the flow of migration by preventing people from moving to Russia without a specific purpose, such as employment.

Once a person decides to move to Russia, he must clearly define the goals of his move. This, in turn, will determine its future legal status. In most cases, such citizens receive refugee status. After arriving at your new place of residence, you must submit the entire package of documents with your application to the local authority of the Federal Migration Service. Today, you can apply for a temporary residence permit under a quota via the Internet. FMS employees accept applications electronically. To complete this procedure, a person must register on the website of the Unified Portal of State Services.

After completing the review of the submitted documents, representatives of the migration service make a decision on whether the person will be granted a quota. It can be both positive and negative. If a citizen receives a refusal, the reasons for the refusal must be indicated in the letter.

Tips for applicants

The main thing you need to do to quickly obtain a temporary residence permit is to correctly prepare the list of documents. The information contained in them must be reliable. Do not forget that FMS employees carry out an inspection, and if they find a discrepancy in the facts, the foreigner will be refused permission.

To avoid problems, you need to follow migration rules and avoid breaking the law. Even administrative fines can lead to negative consequences.

A common mistake made by Ukrainians when applying for a temporary residence permit in Russia is putting a stamp on the permit not in the foreign passport, but in the national civil passport. As a result, the foreigner's internal identity card is damaged and cannot be used in the future. Why is this happening? The legislation of Ukraine prohibits employees of foreign government agencies from putting marks on the documents of their citizens, unless otherwise provided by regulations or agreements. Therefore, since 2015, Ukrainians can apply for a temporary residence permit only using international passports. This way you can avoid mistakes when preparing a document.

In 2021, there have been no significant changes regarding the issuance of temporary residence permits. The only innovation is the reduction in the number of quotas for Ukrainian citizens, it amounted to 110,880.

Obtaining a quota for temporary residence permits in 2021: application, procedure

Quotas for temporary residence permits are approved annually by the Government of the Russian Federation, depending on the demographic situation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and their ability to accommodate foreigners.

Thus, every year the government distributes quotas for temporary residence permits among the regions of the Russian Federation, recording how many temporary residence permits will be issued in a particular region of the country.

In this section of the article we will consider in detail the process of obtaining a quota for temporary residence permits in Russia.

To get in line for a temporary residence permit in a selected region, a foreign citizen must submit an application for a temporary residence permit in Russia to government agencies or their representative offices in this region, and collect all the necessary documents for submission.

The decision to issue a quota for a temporary residence permit will be made after the foreign citizen submits all documents for obtaining a temporary residence permit in the general manner.

At the same time, submitting an application does not guarantee the foreigner the fact of receiving a temporary residence permit, however, if government officials accepted the application for a temporary residence permit, this means that the quotas for obtaining a temporary residence permit in this region have not yet been exhausted.

If the quota for a temporary residence permit has been exhausted, then applications for issuing a temporary residence permit will not be accepted, then it will be almost impossible to obtain a temporary residence permit in Russia this year, only outside the quota.

After considering the application for a temporary residence permit in Russia, a decision is made to issue a temporary residence permit or a decision to refuse a temporary residence permit, which the foreign citizen is informed about by telephone or in writing.
