Import & reconcile SMS / CoS

SponsorGuard is import-first; it does not connect directly to UKVI SMS. Import your CoS PDFs to retain searchable evidence and reconcile against your workforce.

  1. Open SMS → Import and upload your Certificate of Sponsorship PDFs.
  2. SponsorGuard extracts each CoS and retains an evidence record for review under the applicable retention policy.
  3. Review the reconciliation against your live workforce — mismatches are flagged for you to act on.
  4. Confirm to commit; review the resulting SMS record and any unresolved issues before relying on it.
