UKVI compliant by design
Legal advice that strengthens your Home Office compliance.
When an immigration matter affects your sponsor licence, it needs to align with your existing evidence. Through Root HR, regulated advisers work directly from your CoS records, Right to Work checks and reporting history, ensuring everything is consistent and audit ready.
OISC-registered immigration advisers and SRA-regulated solicitors handle visa and sponsor licence matters within their authorised scope, ensuring advice meets Home Office standards.
All guidance is timestamped and linked to the employee record, creating a clear audit trail for UKVI reviews.
Advice on CoS, SMS reporting and Right to Work feeds into the same compliance record used for sponsor licence management.
Where needed, your evidence is reviewed before key decisions to ensure actions are based on qualified legal advice, not guesswork.
