Work and business immigration solicitors
Two different jobs, depending on who you are: getting a visa, or getting the right to sponsor one. Start with the door that fits.
For workers
You have a job offer, or you are already here and switching route. We prepare the application and deal with the Home Office.

You need a sponsor licence, a certificate of sponsorship, or help keeping the licence you already hold. We also run mock audits.

Act quickly. There are short deadlines to respond, and your sponsored workers' permission depends on the outcome.
Work and sponsorship questions
The same answers appear on the Skilled Worker and sponsor licence pages, so you get one consistent answer wherever you land.
The Home Office publishes a processing time, and a priority service is sometimes available. We tell you the current position when you instruct us.
You cannot assign new certificates and you have a limited window to respond. The written response is the whole case, so get advice the day you receive the letter.
There is a general threshold and a going rate for the specific occupation code, and you must meet the higher of the two. Both are updated periodically, so we check the current figures for your specific role before you apply.
Your partner and dependent children can usually apply as dependants, either at the same time or later.
