What Sponsor Licence Holders Need To Know

If you're a UK sponsor licence holder or applicant, you must know about this

It is now a requirement to read all relevant parts of the sponsor guidance, and to commit to keeping updated on any relevant changes that are introduced.

And, much like the most recent update, these changes are instantaneous and do not provide notice, in contrast to changes to the immigration rules.

The relevant documents for skilled worker sponsors are below:

• Part 1: Apply for a Licence https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/workers-and-temporary-workers-guidance-for-sponsors-part-1-apply-for-a-licence

• Part 2: Sponsor a Worker https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/workers-and-temporary-workers-guidance-for-sponsors-part-2-sponsor-a-worker

• Part 3: Sponsor Duties and Compliance https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/workers-and-temporary-workers-guidance-for-sponsors-part-3-sponsor-duties-and-compliance

• Appendix A: Supporting Documents for Licence Applications https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/supporting-documents-for-sponsor-applications-appendix-a

• Appendix B: Immigration Offences and Sponsorship https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/immigration-offences-and-sponsorship-appendix-b

• Appendix C: Civil Penalties and Sponsorship https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/civil-penalties-and-sponsorship-appendix-c

• Appendix D: Record Keeping for Sponsorship https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/keep-records-for-sponsorship-appendix-d

• Glossary https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/workers-and-temporary-workers-guidance-for-sponsors-glossary

All of the above can be found on the Sponsorship: guidance for employers and educators page: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/sponsorship-information-for-employers-and-educators

To keep up to date with changes, head to the above page and click the bell button that states 'Get emails about this page' to be updated whenever documents are revised.

This is a practical way to keep you updated in light of the new requirements.
