Background
Licensed Tier 2 sponsors are operating as shell companies with no real customers or suppliers. Directors are charging up to £30k per visa and placing victims on fake payrolls.There is no genuine work or employment relationship.This exploits vulnerable people and undermines the immigration system and human trafficking.Currently no clear, fast route for victims to report this. Dedicated reporting system would allow Immigration Enforcement to act swiftly before more people are harmed and exploited.
