Sponsor Licence Application

Post by Bogdanova » Mon Nov 11, 2019 12:38 pm

Hi everyone,
My company is going to apply for Sponsor Licence to employ me (I'm currently in the UK on Tier 4 Student visa). Can someone share their experience how long did take for a company to get application approved? I found somewhere that it takes about 8-10 weeks.
Also, does anyone knows how long does it take to get unrestricted CoS approved?
Thanks a lot!

Yes it takes this long, sometimes longer.

Depends if they have UCoS to allocate.

Hi all,

My employer applied for Sponsorship Licence for me back in December (just before Christmas). Today they told me that they received an email with with password for SMS.
If anyone has experience in this, does that mean HO is close to making a positive decision? Or is it something the routinely do for all the applications?

Also, we still did not get audit from HO and quite anxious about them coming. Any advice/experience on that? We were told there is a chance they might not visit at all.

Many thanks in advance!

An update in case if anyone is or will be in a similar situation. Today my employer received an email saying the now can use their CoS. So we got the licence!
