What about a general tourist visa for 90 days and then the status may be updated to the more appropriate one when you get the job?
Hi Nathan, you may be more informed as a Ukrainian, I would guess, she could enter PL as a tourist (90 day visa) which would be her status as she is not working or studying. Then when the OP receives his residency card ( based on work contract) she would have to apply from the Ukraine for a spouse Visa.
Delph, how long does it takes these days for a " NON EU" residency card based on work contract?
