Not all work-related visa lead to settlement (indefinite leave to remain or ILR) in the UK. The eligibility for settlement depends on the type of visa and whether it allows for a long term stay and eventually transition to permanent residency.
Work visa that can lead to settlement (ILR):
Work visa that do not lead to settlement (ILR):
Even if your current visa does not lead directly to settlement, many UK work visas allows you to switch to a different category that does provide a path to ILR. Generally, after accumulating 5 years of lawful residence in the UK under qualifying visas, you may be eligible for settlement (ILR).
If you need help determining whether your visa leads to settlement or how to switch to a settlement – eligible visa, we can assit you with advice and the application process.
Some people can work in the UK without a visa, including:
You will need a sponsor licence. A sponsor licence allows business to hire foreign nationals legal by sponsoring their work visas. It is a legal requirement for any company looking to employ non-citizens and migrants who do not have automatic right to work in the UK.
Employees may require a Certificate of Sponsorship issued under Tier 2 Skilled Worker route or Tier 5 Temporary Work route. Charities and Educational institutions can also apply for sponsor licence if they wish to employ workers from overseas or UK graduates. If you and your business are overseas we will advise you about the options you may have to sponsor workers under the Global Business Mobility route.
A business based overseas cannot directly obtain a UK sponsor licence unless it has created a footprint, or established presence in the UK. We can assist your business with establishing a UK branch or subsidiary. Once established, the UK entity can apply for sponsorship licence to sponsor workers under the UK visa system.
We will ensure that you meet these requirements and guide you through the application process.
The process typically involves:
Once submitted, immigration authorities may conduct an inspection of your business to verify your compliance. We can prepare you for such inspection by carrying out a mock audit prior to the visit by the Home Office.
Employers must comply with a range of immigration laws, including:
Non-compliance can result in fines, sanctions, or loss of sponsorship licence.
Time spent in preparation of immigration applications may vary by visa type and complexity, but we work diligently to expedite your case as much as possible.
