Frequently asked questions
How long does a sponsor licence take?
Standard processing usually takes around eight weeks once submitted, though this can vary. A priority service is sometimes available.
What happens if we fall short on compliance?
The Home Office can suspend or revoke a licence. We help you put the right systems in place before problems arise.
What are sponsor duties?
Licensed sponsors must keep records, report changes, monitor sponsored workers and carry out right-to-work checks. Breaches can lead to licence suspension or revocation.
What is a civil penalty?
Employers who hire someone without the right to work can face substantial fines per worker. Correct right-to-work checks give you a legal defence.
