When should we extend a sponsored worker's visa?
Extensions should be planned well before a visa expires, with a new Certificate of Sponsorship and updated salary checks. We manage the timeline and paperwork so your employee can continue working without a gap.

Risks & important considerations
Continuing eligibility
An extension is not automatic. The worker, role, sponsor and employment conditions must still satisfy the applicable rules.
Changed duties or pay
Job changes, salary adjustments or a different sponsor can affect eligibility or require another immigration step.
Sponsor records
The employer must keep accurate CoS, HR and reporting information. An incomplete file can complicate the next visa application.
