If permission to work has been granted you will receive an official permission to work Decision Notice (ASL 4264) letter from the Home Office. The letter will confirm that permission to work has been granted and confirms any conditions or restrictions on the work. Your Application Registration Card (ARC) is also updated to reflect your permission status. If you have any issues with your ARC including errors on work remarks, please use the online ARC enquiry form to contact the Home Office.

Should you find successful employment, the employer is responsible for checking the Employer Checking Service to establish if you have been granted permission to work and will need to do their own checks as to whether the applicant has the skills, qualifications and experience to work.
