RETRIEVING A TIER 2 CERTIFICATE FOR
EDITING AND ASSIGNING
Introduction

This step-by-step guide tells you how to retrieve a Tier 2 Certificate of Sponsorship for
editing and assigning in the Sponsorship Management System.

Note: All jobs advertised under Tier 2 (General) on or after 31st March 2009 must be
advertised to settled workers in Jobcentre Plus to pass the resident labour market test. In
addition, the vacancy must also be advertised using one other method permitted by the
relevant code of practice.

Note: You can use the Sponsorship Management System to notify the UK Border Agency
that you wish to certify maintenance for the migrant coming/continuing to work for you. This
is a tick box that can be found at the bottom of the certificate. You should not undertake to
certify maintenance lightly. If you certify that a migrant and/or their dependants will not claim
public funds, and they then do claim public funds with your knowledge, we will downgrade
your licence to a B-rating.
