Sponsor-licence compliance for UK care providers — without the spreadsheets.
Keep every sponsored worker, document and Home Office deadline in one place. Made for care homes and care groups across the UK — so your team can feel audit-ready on any day of the week.
15-minute walk-through · No credit card · No obligation
Built for the frameworks that matter to UK care providers
Sponsor licence compliance has outgrown the spreadsheet
The Home Office rulebook keeps growing, and registered managers across the UK are already stretched. These are the three places care teams most often tell us things start to slip.
A CoS spreadsheet falls behind almost as soon as it's saved
A new sponsored worker starts, someone renews a passport, an eVisa updates — and the master spreadsheet doesn't always get opened. It's rarely anyone's fault; there just isn't one place that keeps up.
Home Office SMS deadlines run to 10–20 working days
A role change, a delayed start, a new Level 1 User or a change of Authorising Officer each carry their own reporting window. They are easy to lose track of in a busy week, and your sponsor licence rating depends on them.
An unannounced visit means every worker's file, at short notice
Right-to-work checks, DBS/PVG, employment contract, English test, references, qualifications, job description, interview record — for every sponsored worker. Having it all to hand makes the day far calmer.
Three steps. Then it runs itself.
Add your workers
Import or add each sponsored worker — CoS, visa, start date, salary, hours, SOC code. Site assignments included.
Upload the documents
RTW, DBS/PVG, contract, references, English test, qualifications — one drag-and-drop each. Expiry dates auto-tracked.
Stay compliant automatically
Green, amber or red status for every sponsored worker. SMS reportable events picked up as they happen. A Home Office-ready audit pack whenever you need one.
Built specifically for UK sponsored-worker care compliance
Stay ahead of every SMS reportable event
The Home Office SMS deadline clock starts the moment a worker's role, salary, hours, address or visa status changes — or your Authorising Officer, Level 1 User or key contact changes at the sponsor level. AuditReady.care flags it, sets the deadline and keeps it in view until it is done.
- Worker-level events (10 working days) — salary, role, hours, delayed start, absence, end of sponsorship
- Organisation-level events (20 working days) — AO / Level 1 / Level 2 / key contact / address / ownership
- Deadline tracker: overdue in red, due in ≤3 days in amber
- Direct link to the Home Office SMS portal from every report

From the people using it every day
“Audit-Ready has been a game changer for our organisation. As a Level 1 user, I now have complete oversight of all our overseas workers across the business, 24/7. At a glance, I can see exactly where we stand, giving me total confidence and peace of mind that we are continually meeting the requirements of our Sponsorship Licence.
One of the most valuable features for me is the way Audit-Ready alerts me to changes that need to be reported through the Sponsor Management System (SMS), including the specific reporting deadline. This gives me confidence that important reporting obligations won't be overlooked. I can also create notes against reported changes, giving us a clear record of what was reported and helping us maintain a strong audit trail.
For both me and our Administrators, the difference has been significant. Audit-Ready brings everything together in one place, makes responsibilities clear and removes so much of the time previously spent manually checking records, monitoring deadlines and managing compliance.
That time saving is incredibly valuable. It allows all of us to spend our time far more effectively, while still having the reassurance that our sponsorship compliance is being properly managed every day.
For me, Audit-Ready isn't just a time-saving portal — it gives me confidence that we are always in control, meeting our reporting obligations and, most importantly, always Audit-Ready.”
“Audit-Ready has made managing our sponsorship compliance so much easier. Everything we need is in one place, clearly organised and easy to keep up to date. It saves me a huge amount of administrative time and, more importantly, gives me real reassurance on a daily basis that nothing has been missed and our records are always inspection-ready. I honestly wouldn't want to go back to managing it without Audit-Ready.”
“The biggest difference Audit-Ready has made for me is how simple it makes everything. I no longer have to spend time going through different folders and records to make sure dates, documents and checks haven't been missed. The portal gives me a clear picture of what's up to date and what needs my attention.
It has taken a lot of the day-to-day pressure out of managing our overseas worker compliance and saves me a considerable amount of time. I feel much more confident knowing that our records are organised and that important requirements are being monitored.
It's become a tool I rely on every day — it saves time, keeps me organised and gives me real peace of mind.”
“Audit-Ready has completely changed the way we manage our sponsored worker records. What used to involve checking different files, spreadsheets and documents can now be managed quickly and confidently from one portal. It saves a significant amount of time every week and makes it much easier to see exactly what needs attention.
For me, the biggest benefit is the peace of mind. I can log in at any time and immediately see that everything is organised, current and being properly monitored. It takes a lot of the worry out of compliance and gives us confidence that we're always prepared.”
“Audit-Ready has made looking after our sponsorship responsibilities much more straightforward. Having all the information for our overseas workers together in one place means I can quickly check their records, see upcoming requirements and deal with anything that needs attention without having to search through paperwork or multiple systems.
From an Administrator's point of view, it has made a real difference to my workload. Tasks that previously took a considerable amount of time are now much quicker to manage, and I have much greater confidence that nothing important is going to be overlooked.
Knowing that I can log in at any time and see exactly where we stand is incredibly reassuring. Audit-Ready saves me time, keeps us on track and gives me confidence that our sponsorship records are being managed properly every day.”
