Resetting non-levy reservation levels
From 1 April 2021, all non-levy employer reservation levels will be reset to 0, enabling each employer who does not pay the Apprenticeship Levy to make up to 10 new reservations to fund new starts in the financial year 2021-22.
Any reservations made before 1 April 2021 can be converted to starts within the reservations period. These will not count towards the number of reservations made in the financial year 2021-22.
Extending the reservations period from 3 to 6 months
The reservation period for employers who do not pay the Apprenticeship Levy is being extended from 3 to 6 months from 1 April 2021. This means that from 1st April, these employers will be able to reserve funds up to 6 months before an apprenticeship is planned to start.
