The Home Office has updated its guidance webpage in relation to the Ukraine Family Scheme

Lexis®Library update: The updated version confirms that individuals who have already arrived in the UK can apply under the scheme, subject to meeting the eligibility criteria.

Where the applicant is applying from inside the UK, they must apply using a specified form and enrol their biometric information at a UK Visa and Citizenship Application Services (UKVCAS) centre. The applicant will not be required to pay for the biometric enrolment fee, and other UKVCAS service fees eg uploading documents at the centre.

A link to the specified form is here.
