How long will Ukrainian migrants be able to live and work in Poland?

Since the beginning of the war, more than a million Ukrainians have left for Poland.

On March 8, the Polish government held a meeting on Ukrainian refugees. This is reported by the Informant with reference to the Informant Money.

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said that it was decided:

• adopted a law on assistance to Ukrainian citizens. According to it, Ukrainians can legally live and work in the country for 18 months. This period can be extended for another year and a half;
• Poles who accept Ukrainians will receive 40 zlotys per day ($8.7). This support will be valid for two months;
• Ukrainians will not have priority access to public services;
• local governments will be provided with the financial support needed to carry out other tasks, for example, to give refugees access to medicine or education;

“Refugees from Ukraine should know that they are safe during the war, that they can live with us as usual,” said Mateusz Morawiecki.

Recall, earlier we reported that the rescuers set up tents for heating those who are waiting for the evacuation train at the railway station of the Dnieper. Read also about what in Dnipro, men who send their families on the evacuation train were asked not to go out onto the station platforms.
