US Department of Homeland Security announces humanitarian parole sponsorship program for Ukraine

As of April 25, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is implementing "Uniting for Ukraine," an accelerated sponsorship-based humanitarian parole program that will allow participating Ukrainians to travel to and temporarily remain in the United States for up to two (2) years. US-based sponsors who agree to provide financial support for Ukrainian citizens and their immediate family members will be able to initiate a process that will ultimately allow these sponsored beneficiaries to seek advance authorization to travel to the United States and request parole at a US port-of-entry. 

A Tax Alert prepared by EY Law LLP, and attached below, provides additional details.
