HR and payroll platforms are essential for running a business. But when it comes to employer sponsorship and immigration obligations, they fall short. Complize exists to fill that gap.

Most visa compliance failures come from one of three things:
These gaps often sit unnoticed until a problem arises. A missed expiry date. An unreported change in duties. An audit request with no documentation to support past actions.
Complize gives your team a clear, structured system that helps prevent these issues. It works alongside your existing HR and payroll platforms, not instead of them.
If you sponsor even a handful of visa holders, these gaps apply. Our clients include:
Aged care providers with more than 100 sponsored staff
National retailers managing diverse visa types
Construction and tech companies with fast-moving teams
Legal, HR, and risk teams needing shared visibility
They all had the same problem. Spreadsheets, incomplete records, and growing legal risk. Complize gave them one place to manage it properly.
Fewer errors: Staff do not need to guess what is required
Clear responsibility: Alerts and tasks go to the right people
Better defensibility: You can show what was done and when
Less stress: No more chasing spreadsheets or reacting to last-minute visa issues
HRIS and payroll systems are not designed to manage visa risk. Complize is.
It connects the legal, operational, and compliance dots in one platform, helping teams do the right thing without extra admin.
If your current systems do not give you a full picture of visa status, obligations, and reporting needs, Complize can help.
