The project is created for helping Skilled Workers (ex Tier 2 & 5 visa holders) to be operatively informed about their company’s sponsor licence has changed or expired.
Why is it so important to be aware about license status?
According laws of the UK migrants are responsible for checking company's licence status before arriving to the UK, regardless it is the first enter or returning from holidays.
It happens sometimes that visa holder employee, detained for attempting to re-enter the UK – without knowing that their employer’s licence has expired, which automatically compromises their immigration status. Also usually happens is the employer only learns that they no longer hold a valid sponsor licence when a visa holder employee makes an application to the Home Office for further leave to remain (ILR). It’s at this point when conducting their checks as part of the employee’s application that UKVI sees the expired status of the licence and takes subsequent enforcement action.
