Calculate reporting deadline

Choose what changed and when. Sponsoro identifies the relevant reporting workflow, calculates the working-day deadline where possible, and shows what to do next.

Event-aware

Worker changes are usually different from organisation changes.

Sponsored-worker circumstance changes are generally reportable within 10 working days. Organisation changes are generally subject to a 20-working-day window — but the event itself matters. Sponsoro checks the event before choosing the clock.

Some reporting clocks don't start on the obvious date.

Delayed starts, unauthorised absence thresholds and corporate changes can require trigger logic before a deadline applies. Where the calculator cannot safely reduce the situation to one date, Sponsoro shows Review required rather than inventing a deadline.

Your result

Report by date, time remaining and next steps.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long do sponsors have to report worker changes?

Current Worker and Temporary Worker sponsor guidance generally requires relevant changes to a sponsored worker's circumstances to be reported within 10 working days unless a different timeframe is specified.

How long do sponsors have to report company changes?

Relevant changes to the sponsoring organisation are generally reportable within 20 working days unless the specific rule says otherwise.

What counts as a working day?

The calculator excludes weekends and uses the relevant configured UK bank-holiday calendar when calculating working-day deadlines.

Does every sponsored-worker change need reporting?

No. Whether a change is reportable depends on the type of change and the applicable sponsor guidance.

What if my event has a special reporting rule?

Sponsoro can apply event-specific trigger logic. Where the information provided is insufficient to calculate a reliable deadline, the tool returns Review required rather than guessing.

Does Sponsoro submit the report for me?

No. Official reporting remains within the Home Office Sponsor Management System or other applicable Home Office process. Sponsoro calculates, manages and evidences the surrounding workflow.

Is this calculator legal advice?

No. The calculator provides sponsor-compliance information based on the event details entered and configured Home Office rules. It is not immigration legal advice.
