here to help your Business
The rules on business immigration and foreign workers are strict, with serious consequences for those that fail to comply. Instructing the right Immigration Solicitor will be key for any Business. 

Many Businesses seeking to use business immigration for their benefit do so by employing staff from outside the EU for occupations they cannot recruit for in the UK or Europe. It is therefore important to make sure that any workers living and working in the UK are doing so legally, to guard from any infringements to the law. 
 
Business Immigration can be a foundation of ones business so instructing the right Manchester Immigration Lawyer to give you the correct advice is crucial.

Our Immigration Solicitors Manchester Are Here to Help you Navigate the Points-Based System

The UK operates a Point-Based System (PBS), which applies to a range of individuals, including highly-skilled migrants, investors, entrepreneurs and people who are being sponsored by their employer.

The system is made up of five tiers:

• Tier 1 is for highly skilled migrants, such as investors, entrepreneurs and people identified as having exceptional talent in their field.

• Tier 2 is for skilled workers with a job offer in the UK, including sportspeople, religious professionals, people who have experience in a job where there is a shortage of UK workers and people transferred to a locale in the UK.

• Tier 4 is for students who wish to study in the UK.

• Tier 5 is for temporary workers. 

To qualify for a visa via the PBS, an applicant will be judged on their attributes, maintenance and English language ability.



Employers are required to apply for a sponsor licence if they wish to recruit non-EEA (European Economic Area) workers. A licence lasts four years and must be renewed before expiry. Failure to obtain a sponsor licence or renew an existing licence can lead to civil penalties for your and your business, including up to five years imprisonment, a fine of up to £20,000 for each illegal worker or both, in addition to criminal sanctions. Contact our Immigration Solicitors in Manchester to avoid any problems. 

Further information on applying for a Sponsor Licence can be found here.
