CoS cancellation and refund

[ldam]

Dears,

Can employer cancel/withdraw the CoS after that has been approved by home office? If yes, will the cost of CoS will be refunded to the employer?

I am considering an offer from an employer and they have started CoS for me. I am likely getting other offer which I am Interested in. I saw in a previous post that the first employer has to withdraw the CoS then only the second employer can raise one. In that case what if the first employer does not accept to withdraw the CoS stating his financial loss of application fees. I know they can't force but want to know if any loss for them in doing so.

Thanks in advance.

No refund will be given.

See p33-34 here, it also tells you what to do if the sponsor refused to withdraw CoS

Thanks a lot for your response. One following question, will there be any consequence for me further as I ask them(employer) to withdraw and they incur a loss of money (I believe 5k GBP).

I can not think of any other than they probably won't give you offer in the future
CoS only costs £199. £5k is probably for immigration skills charge, which will be refunded.
