We are a specialised UK immigration law firm.
I want to share some very important information with you if you are being affected by the Revocation of your employer’s Tier 2 Sponsor Licence.
The question I often get asked is this:
If the organisation was to lose Tier 2 sponsor licence then could their sponsored migrant workers continue to work for them?
We wrote to the Home Office asking them to provide a very clear and precise guideline on this. We received a positive response, recently in November 2017, stating that the migrant could continue working for the sponsor up until their curtailed leave expires.
This positive response is very useful for two reasons.
Number 1: The business would not need to terminate employment of their sponsored workers with immediate effect
Number 2: and very important to migrant worker because if there was to be a break of more than 60 days in a Sponsored Migrant’s continued work between employments then they shall not be eligible for settlement. This is a very technical piece of information, but it can mean the difference between qualifying for settlement, or NOT qualifying for settlement. When a sponsored worker can remain with a sponsor— even one with a revoked licence—for a period of time, they are better set to meet the settlement requirements.
I hope this information will be useful to you.
If you need a copy of the email from the Home Office, please contact us. Our contact details are at the bottom of the video. We would be more than happy to share this information with you.
Thank you.
