United Kingdom Immigration FAQs
Context on Skilled Worker sponsorship, Global Talent, Global Business Mobility routes, and employer responsibilities.
Use these answers to plan the information and decisions HR needs to coordinate. Requirements can change, and the process depends on the employee, role, employer, and destination. Confirm the applicable route and obligations with partner immigration counsel.
Who handles sponsor licence and Skilled Worker filings?
WayLit coordinates the case with partner attorneys and local professionals. Confirm who will advise on the sponsor licence and worker route, prepare or submit the relevant applications, and support the employer's sponsorship duties. Your company supplies accurate job and company information, controls employer approvals, and assigns responsibility for sponsor-system actions and records.
How long do Skilled Worker visas take?
GOV.UK says a Skilled Worker decision usually takes three weeks for applications outside the UK or eight weeks inside the UK after the applicant has applied, proved identity, and supplied documents. Preparation and appointments can add time. HR should track those stages and confirm work-start conditions with counsel. See current Skilled Worker guidance. For qualifying intra-company transfers, review the separate Senior or Specialist Worker route.
What do I need to prepare?
Prepare the actual duties, work location, pay, hours, employing entity, and employee's current immigration status. Ask the legal adviser to assess the occupation code, sponsorship and salary requirements, and any applicable exception. Your company should confirm the job information, sponsor responsibilities, and approvals before a Certificate of Sponsorship is assigned.
How do I confirm whether WayLit supports a visa route?
Share the destination, proposed role, employer structure, and employee’s circumstances with the case team. WayLit and partner attorneys can confirm the supported route, legal requirements, service scope, and next steps before work begins. Coverage and eligibility depend on the particular case.
What does WayLit coordinate, and what remains with HR?
WayLit coordinates case workflows, document requests, employee updates, and next steps with partner immigration attorneys. Partner attorneys advise on the applicable legal requirements and filings. HR provides accurate employment and company information, approves sponsorship and budgets, and carries out employer obligations. Agree on case-specific responsibilities at the start and flag changes in the role, worksite, or employee’s circumstances.
How does WayLit help HR track renewals and compliance deadlines?
The platform records case milestones and relevant deadlines, while the case team coordinates reminders and next steps. HR should keep employment and employee information current, respond to assigned tasks, and tell the team about changes. Partner attorneys confirm the applicable filing requirements and legal obligations for the case.
How does WayLit keep employees informed?
WayLit coordinates case updates, document requests, and action items directly with employees. Questions about legal requirements, travel, or work authorization are coordinated with partner immigration attorneys. HR remains involved when company information, sponsorship decisions, or employer action is needed.
