Ensure Compliance.

Secure Success. Protect Your Licence.

Sponsor Licence compliance isn’t just an obligation-it’s the very foundation of your business. Every year, 45% of Home Office audits result in licence downgrades, suspensions, or revocations due to non-compliance. 10 out of 10 Sponsors we’ve supported were all knowingly or unknowingly breaching their sponsor duties, but the path to compliance doesn’t have to be uncertain.

Let us guide you.

 

What we can offer

Meet Elisabeth Fabiyi

Founder of FABS Domiciliary Home Care, Elisabeth built her business to provide essential support to her community, delivering over 1,500 hours of care every week. But when the Home Office conducted a compliance inspection, Elisabeth believed she had nothing to worry about.

 
"I was so excited for them to come because I knew, according to me, everything was in place,” she recalls. “I was confident we were following the procedures and that everything was done correctly."

The inspection seemed to go well. Elisabeth waited patiently for their decision, believing she had passed without issue.

But five months months later, the response arrived—and it was nothing like what she had expected.

“When the decision came through, I was furious. I couldn’t believe what I was reading. It didn’t make sense because I knew we had systems in place. It was a 12-page letter outlining breaches I didn’t even think were possible. For days, I couldn’t sleep. All I could think about was, *‘Who am I going to use to represent me?”

“I contacted local solicitors, but they told me they had never dealt with a case like this before.”

Then Elisabeth remembered something—a series of weekly emails she had received from Sponsor ComplIANS.

“I had been getting their emails for months, always full of useful advice and updates about sponsor licence compliance. At the time, I didn’t think I’d need their help, but when I read that decision letter, they were the first name that came to mind. I reached out to them straight away.”

What makes IANS Solicitors different?

Unlike other solicitors, who were unfamiliar with cases of this complexity, Sponsor ComplIANS had a wealth of experience to draw on.
 
“This is where Sponsor ComplIANS stand out,” Elisabeth explains. “They gave me samples of the cases they had represented and showed me the outcomes of those representations. That gave me confidence that my case wasn’t hopeless.”
 
Within an hour of contacting Sponsor ComplIANS, Elisabeth was sitting down with our team. We reviewed her case, analysed the suspension notice, and assured her:
 
“This isn’t the end. There is a case here to be won.”

Our speed of action and depth of expertise made all the difference. Elisabeth went from sleepless nights and uncertainty to a clear plan of action and renewed confidence in her business’s future.
From Risks to Results:

A step-by-Step Solution

Determined to fight the decision, Elisabeth reached out to Sponsor ComplIANS and said, ‘I need you now, and I need to sort this out.’ Sponsor ComplIANS laid out exactly what needed to be done.

“They gave me such a sense of relief during a time when I was so stressed.”

The first step was a Compliance Audit, a deep dive into FABS’ operations to identify the gaps that had led to the Home Office’s decision. Sponsor ComplIANS meticulously inspected every file, procedure, and record, uncovering areas of non-compliance that had gone unnoticed.

“Sponsor ComplIANS made me feel so relaxed. I knew I was in capable hands, and for the first time, I felt like I could see a way forward,” Elisabeth said.

Elisabeth’s Experience:

The Difference Representation Makes

When the Home Office required Elisabeth Fabiyi, founder of FABS Domiciliary Home Care, to represent her compliance action plan, she was ready but nervous. Despite having a robust plan in place, the pressure of presenting it during a critical inspection weighed heavily on her.
 
“I had butterflies,” Elisabeth recalls. “I contacted Sponsor ComplIANS and said, ‘I need you to be here for me.’ Our team came down, stayed with Elisabeth throughout the visit, and provided the reassurance needed.

On the Contrary:

A Cautionary Tale

While Elisabeth’s story showcases the power of acting quickly and trusting the right team, not everyone chooses that path. Another care provider attended our Sponsor Licence Compliance Webinar and had the opportunity to engage our services. Despite understanding the risks and the solutions we offered, they decided not to proceed.
 
By the time they reached out to us, it wasn’t too late to assist, but so much of the stress, cost, and uncertainty could have been avoided had they acted earlier.

When You Don’t Act, the Costs Only Multiply

Not every story has a happy ending, and sometimes the consequences of inaction are a harsh reminder of what’s at stake. Take this care provider as an example.
 
In March 2021, they attended our Sponsor Licence Compliance Webinar, where we broke down the risks of non-compliance and how proactive action—like a Compliance Audit—could safeguard their business. Despite understanding the stakes, they decided not to engage our services due to their size and perceived lack of urgency.

Fast-forward to May 29th, and the Home Office revoked their sponsor licence. The reason? A CoS assigned to a relative, compounded by IT mismanagement and procedural oversights. What could have been identified and resolved during a Compliance Audit spiralled into a costly legal battle, with mounting solicitor fees and no guarantee of resolution.

Their words, not ours

"The only reason we did not engage your service then was that we were a very small service with less than 5 employees. We could not afford the Sponsor Fees. The Home Office revoked our Sponsor Licence… Now, we are preparing a pre-action protocol and spending far more than we would have on a Compliance Audit."
A small upfront investment in compliance could have saved them from legal chaos, financial strain, and reputational damage.
