Не весь вміст на цій сторінці доступний українською мовою.
If you want someone to act on your behalf regarding your application, you must first grant the person power of attorney to function as your legal representative. You could choose, for example, an employer, family member or other person you trust.
The person you authorise must be of legal age, i.e., over 18 years of age.
What does it mean to grant someone power of attorney?
The person who you authorise
- can call UDI and talk to us on your behalf
- will have right of access to information about your case
- will receive enquiries from the immigration authorities about your case
- will receive the decision in your case once the case has been processed and will have to notify you of the decision.
If you authorise someone to represent you, the immigration authorities will contact your representative about matters concerning your case instead of you.
