Tier 5 Responsibilities

As part of the Home Office Points Based System for Tier 5, the University of Nottingham (as Sponsor) is required to carry out certain monitoring and record keeping duties of all new and current migrant workers. These include:

  1. Maintaining up-to-date contact details. It is important that you notify HR immediately of any changes to this information using the online contact details form.
  2. Reporting any unauthorised absence: unauthorised absence does not include authorised annual leave, sickness absence which has been appropriately reported through the University’s sick absence reporting procedure or any other leave (such as compassionate, parental, maternity, study etc), authorised under a University process. You should ensure that you are aware of the process for reporting all forms of leave, including annual leave. Therefore, it is very important that you comply with the appropriate leave procedures, as we may have to report your unauthorised absence to the UK Visas & Immigration.
If your immigration status changes or your sponsored researcher status is terminated before the expiry of your visa, for whatever reason, please notify the HR International Employment Services Team.
