A British National (Director of a Ltd Company) used someone to pay for his Sponsorship License and in return he will offer him a Skilled Worker visa. what are the consequences for the director and the visa holder in such activity.
A British National (Director of a Ltd) company declared less amount on the UK port to pay less customs and VAT for the goods imported from the Europe. what are the consequences for the director and the visa holder in such activity.
British National (Director of a Ltd Company) charged someone for Skilled worker visa and Money was sent to the director's family member account with proofs. what are the consequences for the director and the visa holder in such activity.

hi,
I want to know, if someone (British National) have done this, and if reported by the employee (on skilled worker visa) to the Home office, what are the expected outcomes for the British National (director of the company)?
thank you

This is not an immigration question. Try to find criminal law forum to ask.
I believe this forum is about getting help towards legal actions such as visa applications etc.
I don't think anyone can or should give advice about abusing the visa system.

If you are a sponsored employee and it will be founded that you bought a COS the consequence for both yourself and the licence holder can be severe.
From immigration point of view I assume that if UKVI find a licence holder to abuse it at first instance the licence will get withdrawn.

I don't want to comment about criminal procedures that will probably take place because it will be very speculative, but I assume the the consequences will be dire.
I am not a lawyer or immigration advisor. My statements/comments do not constitute legal advice.
I take no responsibility for following them.
