Reform UK immigration policy: sponsor records (2026)

Reform UK proposes replacing indefinite leave to remain with renewable permission and introducing an employer levy. These are party proposals, not current sponsor duties. They do not change a worker’s existing status or authorise changes to payroll, evidence collection or reporting on their own.

Announcement register

Two proposals, two different review questions

On smaller screens, scroll the table sideways to see every column.

ProposalSource and dateRecord question if enacted
Replace ILR with renewable permission
Official policy page, undated; checked 16 Sep 2026. Proposes five-year renewable permission, with conditions and exceptions.
What final scope, transitions and permission evidence would apply? Do not mark existing ILR as expired or create a renewal deadline from the proposal.
Employer levy and tax changes
Party tax announcement, 15 Jun 2026. Proposed employment-cost changes; not a current payroll instruction.
What definitions, rates and commencement would final legislation use? A planning scenario should stay separate from live payroll and worker status records.
Last verified 16 September 2026. Read the full party sources for their stated scope; this short register does not reproduce the entire policy programme. No legal commencement is established by these announcements.
Keep the evidence grounded

Do not turn a scenario into a worker decision

A policy proposal belongs in a review log until the applicable rules are established.
These are document-management safeguards, not an assessment of whether a proposed policy would be lawful or apply to a particular person. Compare statuses in the party tracker and use the government anchor for current guidance and measures still in passage.
  • Label any internal cost scenario as hypothetical and date its assumptions.
  • Do not collect extra personal information solely because a party proposes a levy.
  • Use current official evidence when reviewing permission and right-to-work records.
  • Recheck final law, commencement and guidance before implementing a process change.

How to use this dated tracker

This is a selected, manually checked register, not a live feed or a complete statement of immigration law. Party sources establish what a party announced; they do not establish a legal obligation. Suggested record questions are Soteriaa’s editorial interpretation, not new duties. Recheck official sources before acting and whenever guidance, bill stages or commencement dates change. Soteriaa sells document and tracking software and does not endorse a party. Soteriaa provides document and workflow tools, not legal assistance or compliance advice. It helps organise records, evidence and deadlines; it does not determine compliance, certify records or submit official reports on your behalf. You review the information and remain responsible for required checks and submissions.
