The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced updated COVID-19 vaccination requirements for beneficiaries paroled into the United States under Uniting for Ukraine. This change will be effective immediately, all beneficiaries aged 6 months and older must have an attestation submitted attesting that they received COVID-19 vaccinations both before traveling to the United States and after arrival in the United States, unless they are eligible for an exception. This change was made because there are now approved COVID-19 vaccine for the younger age groups.
