So UKBA emailed you 3 weeks after you submitted the application asking how many CoS you need and why (?) you need the license?

That's rather strange. When applying for the license online, there's a question about how many CoS is needed, so they should not ask this again, unless you requested '0' CoS.

Is there any chance you can post their email here?

My company applied for sponsor licence in june last week, got mail from ukba they would do a pre visit. Pre visit was done on 1st week of August . They asked from employer payslip of a particular employee which they already sent yesterday. Employer received email that you report has been sent now, I believe to case worker. finers crossed.Visa expiring on 25 th aug, 2013. Any senior member can throw light how long does it take to give a decision once previsit is being done and the documents they asked has been sent now keepin in mind that visa is expiring on 25th aug

It's quite normal for them to ask, nothing to worry about. The form just has a box for a number but they want to know reasons and to check the sponsor is wanting unrestricted cos.

It could still take several weeks to get the licence. Once they get the licence the nominated level 1 user gets a password and user ID and only then can they issue a CoS or apply for a restricted CoS.

Congratulations!

If you don't mind, what industry your company works in? And also where is it based (in London or outside?)?

Well UKba checked the records of the exisiting employees, why you want to sponsor a migrant, checked employer's hr compliance, asked for payslips of employees, future plans, vision of company, the interview went for 1.5 hrs.

Hello manpreet111,

I was wondering since im in the same situation, did you ask for expediing the licencing procedure from UKBA or did it normally take 2 months to come.

We haven't had any visiting and also we appied a month ago and my visa is expirying less than 3 weeks.
