I'm assuming that means 'when Russia won't threaten to nuke us for it.'

Ukraine itself acknowledges that it is not realistic to become a member as long as the Russian invasion continues.

Nobody cares about Russian nuclear threats when Russia is still following all best practices in telling the world where their nukes are going and when. Either way, China doesn't support Russia using their nukes, so Russia won't in order to keep their support.

The truth is nobody besides the most hawkish wants Ukraine joining NATO right now, because that would grant them access to article 5 and thus boots on the ground from every other NATO state. Ukraine'll almost certainly be invited into NATO once either they regain Crimea + other occupied lands from Russia or if they renounce their claim to those territories.
