Ukrainian woman fears visa catch-22 could derail coming to B.C.
She said all of the information she has been able to collect so far through the company’s website suggests the visa is needed to board, she said.“She has an airline ticket. She has completed her application, her medical exam and her biometrics, what we don’t have is the visa. And the airline at this point is stating that she needs to have the visa to board the plane, so there is the gap,” she said.
The airline said the process is managed by an international system called Timatic, and that all airlines must abide by whatever entry requirements a destination country has programmed into the network.
