On 25th February, the UK Border Agency announced the Government's intention to increase the fees payable for certain applications on 6th April.

The Immigration and Nationality (Cost Recovery Fees) Regulations 2013 and the Immigration and Nationality (Fees) Regulations 2013 both came into force on 6th April.

Details of the new fees payable from 6th April can be downloaded from the "Fees for our services" page of the UK Border Agency's website :

The UK Border Agency has indicated that the following Immigration forms will be amended to reflect these increased fees:- FLR(BUS), FLR(M), FLR(O), FLR(P), NTL, SET(BUS), SET(DV), SET(F), SET(M), SET(O), TD112, TIER1(GENERAL), TIER1(GE), TIER4(G), TIER4(C) and TOC.

Until we can supply you with the amended forms, immigration practitioners should check which fees are payable on or after 6th April and submit the correct payment to the UK Border Agency. Although existing versions of these forms will be accepted until 27th April,we understand that the correct fee must be paid when submitting the current forms.

We will supply you with the amended forms in due course.
