Compliance Audit Leads to Sponsor Licence Suspension

In late 2017, Company Y was visited by representatives of the UK Visas & Immigration (UKVI) on at least two occasions to assess its continued suitability as a registered sponsor. Following the compliance visit, their Sponsorship Licence was suspended. The main issues were questions around the “genuine vacancy” requirement. The UKVI had concluded that the roles held by the sponsored workers were either not genuine or did not exist. UKVI placed reliance upon a few attempted compliance visits made when none of the sponsored workers were at the premise, or the premises were closed. The UKVI further alleged that Company Y had provided false information when assigning CoS’ to the sponsored workers in question as it appeared that the roles in question did not exist.

Fortunately, Company Y used the Sponsor Licence expert team at A Y & J Solicitors to advise and assist with their case to fight to have their suspension revoked. As a result, Company Y and its workforce can now continue to grow and are secure in the knowledge that following A Y & J’s intervention, they can continue to operate a,successful and fully compliant business.
