class="gem-c-govspeak govuk-govspeak govuk-!-margin-bottom-0">
Use this service to ask the Home Office to check an employees or potential employees immigration status if they cannot show their documents or online immigration status.
This could be, for example, because they:
- have an outstanding appeal, review or application with the Home Office
- arrived in the UK before 1989 and do not have documents to prove their immigration status or right to work
You must also ask the Home Office to check their status if they have:
- a digital or non-digital Certificate of Application that says you need to ask the Home Office to check their right to work
- an Application Registration Card
You only need to use this service if you cannot check the applicants right to work online using their share code or check the applicants original documents.
You can be fined up to 60,000 for employing illegal workers.
