The wider assessment
Look at the visa and the employment together
Remaining permission, time in the UK and employment continuity can affect available lenders. We check how your immigration status can be evidenced and explain any recent change of sponsor or role before an application is submitted.
Lenders set their own criteria. A mortgage offer does not extend immigration permission or guarantee a future renewal.
