Still Struggling with CoS Salary Mismatch?

A manual calculator is a great diagnostic tool, but it can’t stop a salary mismatch that ends your business.

Sponsor Licence revocation is now often "automatic" once a mismatch is identified during an audit. This is why we built IRS HR — the ultimate safeguard designed to prevent breaches before they ever appear on your payroll.
