Recognised Check Routes

Covers every check route the Home Office accepts.

Three prescribed check methods establish the statutory excuse. The Employer Checking Service is a separate fallback for applicants in specific circumstances.2 Whichever route you use, the evidence lands in the same audit trail.

Manual document check

Original List A or List B document inspected in person, copied and dated — prescribed for any prospective worker.

Home Office online check

Share-code lookup via the gov.uk online service — prescribed for non-British and non-Irish citizens.

Digital Verification Service (DVS)

IDVT check for British and Irish citizens via a certified DVS provider — replaces the previous IDSP terminology under the June 2025 Employer's Guide.

Employer Checking Service Fallback

Positive Verification Notice route for applicants with outstanding Home Office applications, where the three prescribed checks cannot be completed.

Statutory Excuse Evidence

A structured audit trail per worker.

A correctly evidenced Right to Work check, completed before employment begins, establishes a statutory excuse against a civil penalty. The record we hold is built around the evidence the Home Office expects to see.

What we record per check

  • Date the check was carried out
  • Method used (manual, online, DVS, or ECS)
  • Document type and reference number
  • Share code or PVN reference where applicable
  • Name of the person who ran the check
  • Copy of supporting documents in a secure vault

Follow-up check tracking

For workers with time-limited permission, the platform records each follow-up check due-date so it sits alongside their visa expiry on the worker file.

Expiry reminder ladder

Automated notifications at 90, 30 and 7 days before a visa or follow-up check expires — on our near-term roadmap.

Frequently asked questions

For workers with time-limited permission, a follow-up check is due before their current permission expires. For a Positive Verification Notice from the Employer Checking Service, the excuse lasts six months.

Using a certified DVS provider gives you the statutory excuse for these checks. Manual checks remain available but the statutory excuse only applies when carried out exactly as the published Code of Practice requires. "DVS" replaces the former "IDSP" terminology in the June 2025 Employer's Guide.

Up to £45,000 per worker for a first breach and £60,000 per worker for a repeat breach (gov.uk, in force from 13 February 2024).

No. We are not a certified Digital Verification Service. The platform records the outcome of your chosen DVS provider's check and surfaces it as evidence at audit time.

Share codes last 90 days. If the code is no longer valid when you're ready to check, you'll need to ask the worker for a fresh share code before completing the check.
