RLMT expires on 16 Aug 2018. Is there enough time to apply sponsor licence?

[kumar114]

Hi,
My company has now all the required documents to apply for their sponsor licence.
RLMT already completed in 16 Feb 2018.

But by the time they get their licence and their COS allocation, I believe RLMT will be already expired as they are valid for 6 months only. Will it create a problem? Do they need to start RLMT again?

Kind Regards
Kumar

Unfortunately yes this will need a fresh RLMT

@pere0026 But it will expire once they submit the document? So it won't work?

@pere0026 Can't a company get sponsor licence before conducting RLMT?

Hi again
Can a company apply for their sponsor licence before conducting RLMT?

[kumar114]

Anyone in this forum who can answer my question???

Not sure why you are dealing with their sponsor licence issues. They need to read the sponsor guidance.

@CR001
I am just helping them.
It would be great if you could just let me know if they can apply for sponsor licence before conducting RLMT or not? Please

Read the guidance notes in the link I provided, it details the whole process to apply for sponsorship and the index is quite detailed.

That document tells about what is sponsorship, how to apply, sponsor duties, what is COS, RLMT process etc..
That does not answer my question. "Can a company apply for their sponsor licence before conducting RLMT?"

Read page 23 onwards.

Hope you didn't go through CR001's link properly!

Did you find the appendix A link where she pointed? (You can click those links on the pdf files)

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... 8_v1.0.pdf

(Page 3 / above link)
Appendix A: supporting documents for sponsor licence application
Tier 2 (General) and/or Tier 2 (Minister of Religion)

You must indicate which jobs are currently vacant and for which you intend to assign a CoS. If you have already identified someone that you wish to employ via the sponsorship system, you should provide evidence of how you identified this person. If you identified this person as a result of a recruitment process, you should include copies of advertisements placed to recruit for the job, details of any applicants and why they were not suitable for the job. You should confirm whether the person is already working for you.
If you have not advertised the job and the migrant is not currently working for you, you should confirm how you identified that this person was themost suitable for the job.

@crazy_p thank you very much. Its clear now. RLMT must be conducted..

RLMT must be conducted..

Not sure about the word 'must' as that contradicts with the below!

Hi,
I know that RLMT is equired to apply for sponsor licence.
Company had already completed RLMT on 16 Feb 2018.It will expire in 16 August 2018.
Is that enough time(1 month) for a company to apply for sponsor licence and get COS?

I have posted this before and told that RLMT must done again. But RLMT still has 1 month left before it expires.

Kind Regards
Kumar
