A trust can hold a valid sponsor licence but have paused new applications due to HR capacity, budget cycles, or Home Office compliance reviews. There is no public announcement when this happens. You apply, spend 3–4 hours on the form, and receive a rejection that has nothing to do with your qualifications. This guide tells you how to find the trusts that are genuinely active — before you invest a single hour.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp
