Tier 2 Sponsor Licence Compliance Requirements

 

Tier 2 Sponsor Licence Compliance Requirements

In this ‘Tier 2 Licence Compliance Requirements’ article, we throw light on the duties and responsibilities of a Tier 2 sponsor licence holder. It is imperative that Tier 2 sponsor licence holders understand their duties and responsibilities and develop best practices and processes to strictly ensure that compliance is met, as otherwise their Tier 2 sponsor licence can be suspended or even revoked. The consequences can have grave ramifications on an organization, its developmental curve and business – organizations shall have to forgo and lose its talented employees, who may also be forced to leave the UK unless they obtain a position with another licenced employer within a stipulated period of time.

The support of a legal professional, in the long run, definitely tilts the scales in favour of the company holding a Tier 2 sponsor licence. It is highly advised to have a solicitor who can act as a one-stop expert on immigration laws, keep a tab on all of its timely changes and updates, and assist the organization in performing periodical mock UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) sponsor licence audits to ensure that the HR systems or Immigration compliance systems in place are performing as required by the Home Office.
