A food manufacturer’s certificate request
The challenge
A young food manufacturing business applied for a certificate of sponsorship. The Home Office came back with a request for further information: six detailed questions about the business and the role, with no decision until they were answered.
What we did
- Answered every question in full, in the Home Office’s own order, with the supporting documents grouped in annexes.
- Linked every figure in the reply to the document it came from, and explained anything on the bank statements that might raise a question before it was asked.
The outcome
The Home Office granted the certificate of sponsorship within two weeks of our reply, and the worker’s Skilled Worker visa was then granted.
What this could mean for you
If the Home Office has asked for more information about a certificate or a licence, the reply needs to be complete and in the order they asked.
