Getting it Right the First Time
and saving yourself a lot of headaches later
IGNORANCE OF HOW SPONSOR LICENSING WORKS. Most sponsors want the benefits of employing migrant workers but do not appreciate the need to comply with their duties and responsibilities as licensed sponsors.
SUCH IGNORANCE SUPPORTS THE BELIEF THAT YOU CAN KEEP your licence just because the application was granted without doing anything different apart from filling in the application form, paying the fee and submitting it.
THIS PROBLEM USUALLY COMPOUNDS AFTER UNDERTAKING INTERNATIONAL RECRUITMENT ACTIVITIES and investing time, effort, and resources to get skilled worker visas and train workers to integrate into the new role and environment without doing the same activities for sponsor compliance - a scenario prevalent within the care and hospitality sectors.
BOTH PRE-AND POST-LICENCE COMPLIANCE ACTION IS ON THE RISE. Migration Transparency Data published on 25 May 2023 tells us these: (1) In the pre-licence stage, some 20% of all submitted licence applications (nearly 7,500) did not result in a licence being granted (either due to applications being withdrawn or rejected); (2) Licence applications were typically taking 42 days to process on average (which is consistent with the published service standard of 8 weeks) and; (3) The longest application, however, took some 840 days to process.
