Reporting Duties: For the Employer

As a sponsor you have a list of reporting duties that must be adhered to. If any of the following occur you will need to inform the UK Border Agency:

  • If the employee does not turn up for their first day at work, or if the employee is absent from work for more than 10 working days,
  • If their contract of employment or registration ends (including if they resign or are dismissed),
  • If you stop sponsoring the employee for any other reason (for example, if they move into an immigration category with a different sponsor or one that that does not need a sponsor),
  • If there are any significant changes in their circumstances - for example, a change of job (but not a change of job title), a change of salary (but not an annual pay rise or a bonus),
  • If you have any information which suggests that they are breaching the conditions of their leave,
  • If there are any significant changes in your circumstances (for example, if you stop trading or become insolvent, substantially change the nature of your business, are involved in a merger or are taken over).
