Create a Syrian Family Scheme visa for people homeless due to the earthquake

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I petition the Government to help and support people in Syria who have been made homeless as a result of the recent earthquake and the ongoing crisis in the country. I would like government to make a scheme for people with family in the UK to come to the UK, like the Ukraine Family Scheme visa.

There many Syrian Kurdish people in the UK whose families have been rendered homeless because of the earthquake and the ongoing crisis. There are families and other people in the UK who are worried about these people and want to help. The Government should allow Syrian people living in the UK to bring their family members to the UK.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action: Create emergency visa schemes for victims of earthquakes in Turkey and Syria

We could accept a petition specifically calling for a Syrian Family Scheme, but you'd need to provide your full name.
