Your Problem?
Our Solution:
Our Compliance Action Plan
Compliance with your sponsor licence isn’t just a legal obligation—it’s the foundation of your business’s ability to operate and grow. The stakes are higher than ever.
In 2022, more than 40% of sponsor licence holders faced penalties, suspensions, or revocations due to non-compliance. These aren’t just statistics—they represent businesses disrupted, workforces displaced, and reputations damaged beyond repair. Without a solid compliance framework, your business could be next.
From Suspension to Compliance Excellence
Most sponsors don’t realise how critical compliance is until it’s too late. For Elisabeth, the director of FABS Domiciliary Home Care, this realisation came with a suspension letter listing breaches she never even knew existed.
Her payroll system wasn’t tracking deductions properly, her migrant tracking was incomplete, and reporting duties were inconsistently followed. With her business at risk, Elisabeth turned to IANS Solicitors for help.
Our Tailored Action Plan addressed these issues head-on, providing her with a clear roadmap to regain compliance and rebuild trust with the Home Office.

Restructuring Your Organisation for Compliance
We start by reviewing and restructuring your company’s setup to align with sponsor duties while supporting growth. Misaligned structures are one of the leading causes of licence suspension. Our solution ensures your organisational framework is designed to handle compliance seamlessly.
Streamlined Recruitment and Business Processes
We design and build efficient business workflows and a compliant recruitment flow. These are codified into easy-to-follow, documented procedures that not only demonstrate adherence to regulations but also enhance operational efficiency.
Defining Roles and Responsibilities
Clear, compliant job descriptions and person specifications are crafted for each role in your organisation. This ensures alignment with the details provided on your Certificates of Sponsorship (CoSs), eliminating discrepancies that could undermine your credibility during Home Office audits.
Developing Robust Recruitment Strategies
We create interview questions, scoring systems, and selection frameworks that demonstrate a fair and transparent recruitment process. This helps showcase your commitment to hiring based on qualifications, skills, and experience, as required by Home Office guidelines.
Building Comprehensive HR Policies and Manuals
Tailored HR policies, procedures, and systems form the backbone of your compliance strategy. These manuals guide your key personnel, ensuring every team member understands and fulfils their role in maintaining compliance.
Creating Compliance Assets
We prepare at least 60 detailed, branded, and coded documents, grouped by compliance area. These assets provide tangible evidence of your adherence to sponsor requirements, helping you build a strong case during audits.
Compiling Audit-Ready Staff Files
Every sponsored worker’s file is meticulously compiled, capturing critical documents such as qualifications, visa details, and employment history. On average, it takes 7 hours to complete a single worker’s file. For a business with 24 sponsored workers, this could take up to 168 hours—time that we allocate through a dedicated team to meet even the tightest deadlines.
Mock Interviews and Training
We conduct mock sessions with your Authorising Officer and sponsored workers to prepare them for Home Office interviews. This includes sharing potential questions, creating simple answer frameworks, and building confidence to perform under pressure.
Full Audit Representation and Follow-Up
During the compliance visit, we are by your side, taking notes, stepping in to clarify where necessary, and ensuring all required documents are presented. After the audit, we liaise directly with the Home Office, submitting any additional documentation and addressing follow-up queries to secure your compliance status.
Go At it Alone
Choosing to handle compliance on your own means starting from scratch, navigating complex regulations, and trying to build systems without expert guidance. It’s a daunting and time-consuming process filled with trial and error. The risk of overlooking critical details is high, leading to delays, gaps in compliance, and potentially devastating consequences for your business. Why waste valuable time and effort for uncertain results when you could achieve comprehensive compliance quickly and effectively with expert support?
