Frequently Asked Questions

What is a sponsor licence, and why do I need one?

A sponsor licence allows UK businesses to legally hire skilled workers from outside the UK. Without it, you cannot sponsor visas for international employees.

Can I sponsor an employee who is already in the UK?

Yes, if the individual is already in the UK on a visa that allows switching to a Skilled Worker visa, you can sponsor them. They’ll need to meet the requirements for the Skilled Worker route, and you’ll need to issue a Certificate of Sponsorship for their application.

How long does it take to obtain a sponsor licence?

The Home Office typically processes applications within 8 weeks. However, using the priority service can expedite this to 10 working days for an additional fee.

What are the costs associated with a sponsor licence?

The application fee depends on your organisation's size: £536 for small businesses and £1,476 for medium or large businesses.

Can I reapply if my application is refused?

Yes, you can reapply after a refusal. However, it's crucial to address the reasons for the initial refusal before reapplying. There may be a cooling-off period, typically 6 months, depending on the refusal reasons.

We turned to Nation.better for help because we didn’t know how to go about international recruitment ourselves. The team guided us through every step and simplified the hiring process immensely. The entire recruitment process is efficient and smooth, which allowed us to hire our first caregivers in December, about a month after we started working together.
