Assistance for applying for tier 2 licence

Post by Lakshmi123 » Tue Apr 02, 2019 10:21 am

Hi,

I know a company who wants to apply for tier 2 licence. The company is incorporated in the UK on 28 March 2019. I have some questions and any help would be really appreciated.

1. When can company apply for Tier 2 licence? Do they need to wait 6 months to apply for it?
2. How long does it take to get the licence once the company has applied and when can they start issuing CoS?
3. What documents they need to submit? I have looked at Appendix A but just to confirm again.

Advice below given earlier to another user with a similar question.

It is very unlikely that a newly formed company will gain a Sponsor licence. It is not impossible but when it usually happens the new company is an off shoot or subsidiary of much larger organisations. So there is financial backing and structures in place to give it credibility.

A one man band new company, no financial history, no or little existence or trading history and trying to get a licence all points to an attempt to facilitate immigration abuse. Expect the Home Office to show a great interest in the licence application and a very high chance it will not be granted.
