While it might sound simple, falling behind can be expensive and really mess with how your company runs, including things like visas and bank accounts. Plus, if you need to change anything on your license, like swapping out a local sponsor, it can get complicated, potentially causing you to miss your renewal date and end up with hefty fines.
