The Home Office sponsor guidance says a worker who was not involved in the reasons normally has their permission cut to 60 calendar days. If 60 days or less are left, it is normally not cut.
The narration, word for word. The narration uses a synthetic voice.
In the last thirty days, eight hundred and five employers left the Home Office register of licensed sponsors. If one of them sponsors your visa, this is what GOV.UK says happens next, and where to see it on the day it happens.
This is the revoked sponsor list. It's built from the Home Office register, and we read that register twice a day. Up top are two counts. Eight hundred and five in the last thirty days, and five hundred and seventy eight so far in October. An employer leaves the register when its licence is revoked, surrendered or expires. The register doesn't say which, so the list doesn't either. Further down, you can narrow the list to today, the last seven days or the last thirty. Each entry shows the town, and how long ago it went. The same removals are also grouped by date, with a CSV file to download.
Then there's a table by month, back to December twenty twenty five. Renamed sponsors are counted on their own, not as removals. From January to September this year, eight thousand nine hundred and thirty six sponsors joined the register, and five thousand three hundred and six left. Each month has its own page. In September, the busiest day was the twenty fourth, with ninety four employers removed. The page splits the month by town and by industry. London had the most. Every month also has a free PDF report, and you don't need an account to get it. September's runs to twenty pages. It starts with removals against renames. Then come sector, visa route and town. After that, every employer by name, with its town, its route and the day it left.
Most people only care about one employer. So near the top there's a search box. Type the name, and press enter. The answer comes back in plain words. No longer a licensed visa sponsor, with a red label: removed from the register.
Every employer that leaves the register keeps its page. This one was removed on the fifth of October. It had left once before, in June, and came back in August. Under that is a panel headed: if this employer sponsored your visa. It says the employer can't sponsor anyone now. Then there are three short lines on what the rules say, with links to the GOV.UK pages behind them.
Here's the wording on GOV.UK. Part three of the sponsor guidance says a revoked licence is revoked on every route the employer held. Its details then come off the public register. For workers, paragraph C ten point ten has a table. If a worker wasn't actively or knowingly involved in the reasons, their permission will normally be shortened, so they have only sixty calendar days left. If sixty days or less are already left, it won't normally be shortened at all. A worker who was actively and knowingly involved will normally lose all of their remaining permission. Either way, the guidance says that a worker who hasn't applied to stay on a route they qualify for by the end of that time will have to leave the UK. The Home Office tells each sponsored worker about the revocation. The guidance says it won't tell them the reasons. On the Skilled Worker route, GOV.UK says a job with a different employer means applying to update the visa, with a new certificate of sponsorship.
Back on the company page, there's a date box headed: count sixty days from your letter. Put in a date, and it shows the day sixty days later, and how many days that is from today. Below it is a list of licensed sponsors in the same city that have live job ads. For London, there were forty four when we filmed. The panel ends with a link to ask a regulated solicitor. Advice on your own case can only come from a regulated adviser. On a phone, the panel comes straight after the summary at the top of the page.
If your employer is still licensed, every company page offers licence alerts by email. You hear on the day the entry changes: a licence revoked or restored, or a rating moved between A and B. It's free, with no account. You get one email to confirm, then only alerts for that employer, each with a link to stop. To watch the whole register, there's a weekly email. Every Monday it lists the sponsors that left the week before, with name, town, route and date. The guide to a revoked licence puts these rules on one page, with a set of common questions and answers. The register changes every working day. The revoked list, the monthly reports and the alerts are all free to use.
