New Licence for small company

[sweetuno]

Thanks for sharing the information UKkumar, I finally can see some lights! My employer sent the application on 23rd Feb so hopefully will hear from UKBA soon.

Any employer who applied in Feb, who has received sponsor license ? please post if there is any update on the same?

[sha23]

Dear experienced/knowledgeable experts here,

My company has updated me on the license part today by saying it will take them further 8 weeks to get the license. They say they have applied in Feb, and due the resources in UKBA occupied in clearing students working illegally in uk, its taking them time. Its 13 weeks since application already for my company as per them. Can somebody please through light whether such a condition can happen? and why is there such a delay for initial tier-2 intercompany transfer case? this has to be unrestricted cos so does not come under annual quota limits too or panel meetings. Somebody aware of such a situation?

regards

Registration as a sponsor is different process from that of being able to assign CoS. Just because a company intends to employ an in-country applicant does not mean that the registration process be done on a priority.

Hi,
In my case I am an out of country applicant to be transfferd to UK operations from India. IN such a case company needs to take license. Would you be able to throw some light basis further details.

I rang yesterday to check which month's application were they currently dealing with. I was told that there are still early March applications which have not yet been allocated. So I suppose all the applications submitted in Feb must have been allocated to case workers by now.

So I would assume by that logic, what my employer is indicating is right in terms of 8 more weeks then? If we have the license applciation nos, would we know if a caseworker is allocated already?

Hi Mansoorash, just wondering how did you get all this information out from their mouth? Did you just ask them the question and they will answer you? As everytime my employer called they always gave really generic answers and simply said they can't see any update in the system for my employer's application so they can't give any information... thanks!

Questions to all experts on the forum.

On the helpline for employers, information is only given to the listed person. In my case its the Managing Director of the Company. So if we havent heard anything on the Sponsor application since its been 14th weeks to it, what would be your suggestion? my employer has gone thru an agency in this case. In case an agency is involved does ukba get in touch with the employer or the agency involved? please advice.

My employer again rang today in order to inquire about the status of the application submitted in mid March. He was given the same answer that the application has not even been allocated to a case worker yet. Goodness knows how long will it be before its even allocated!

And try any dates but they do not have any appointment.

Hi mansoorash,

I have started the "New Licence for small company" topic.

And yes it is related to this post.

As we know new Licence is taking too long. So i am trying to book Tier2 appointment in advice to minimise visa time. Can not wait 3 month for SOC and another 2 month for Tier2.
If you have any particular need or any sp help you can create new topic or do not response to the post which is not related to you.
I think above answer will help you to make clear about my post.
Good Luck in your case

After reminding this user on several occasions to stop posting irrelevant queries, this muppet had the audacity of sending me this private message (with several spelling mistakes):

Get the hell out from this topic before I start to answer you in public, you are not the administrator to control the topic, I worn you last time if this is not your interest stay out of it.

Hi all,

My employer finally heard from UKBA today with a fresh email only saying they have been set up the Sponsor Management System, but no further details about when the pre-licensing visit will be...

Can anyone please kindly advise how long do I have to wait until UKBA notify the pre-licensing visit date? or will they just randomly turn up?

Any advise on that will much appreciated.

Cheers

I don't think that UKBA conduct pre licensing visit in all cases. My understanding is that they choose a few cases on random basis to visit but not all.
