Compulsory Home Office Compliance - Your Obligations & Record Keeping Duties

A sponsor licence is not a one-off approval. It comes with duties that run for as long as you employ a sponsored worker: holding the right documentation, keeping your policies and procedures current, and reporting changes within set deadlines. Miss one and you risk a category-A breach (the most serious kind, the type that can cost you your licence).

We'll map out the documentation you're expected to keep on file, the policies the Home Office wants to see in place, and the reporting duties that apply whenever a worker's role, salary, or circumstances change. The aim is a clear picture of what 'ongoing' actually means, so nothing slips between audits, and a routine you can keep running without relying on one person's memory.

What you'll leave with:

• The documentation, policies, and procedures you're expected to keep current, and what counts as evidence.
• The ongoing duties of a sponsor licence holder, and the changes you have to report.
• How to build a record-keeping routine that doesn't rest on one person's memory or one fragile spreadsheet.
