We provide regular webinar updates on relevant immigration law topics. You can access our free webinar library here
We conduct in-person and virtual audits for a variety of organisations including sponsors of Workers and Temporary Workers, and Student sponsors. We review all current immigration processes and procedures, meeting with key personnel to advise on their duties and providing follow- up support, in readiness for any UKVI compliance visits.
Relevant to organisations who do not employ anyone from overseas as well as those who are sponsors, our audits offer an overview of good practice and areas that may need updating. With the continued risk of civil penalties for failure to hold statutory excuses, employers have offered excellent feedback for these packages.
