INFORMATION ONLY - NO FORMS TO IMPORT

On 3rd February, the Minister for Immigration announced the Government's intention to increase the fees payable for certain applications on 6th April.

The Immigration and Nationality (Cost Recovery Fees) Regulations 2014 came into force on 6th April.

Details of the new fees payable from 6th April can be downloaded from the Government's website:

The UK Border Agency has indicated that the following Immigration forms will be amended to reflect these increased fees: DL, EEA1, EEA2, EEA3, EEA4, FLR(BUS), FLR(M), FLR(O), FLR(P), FLR TIER1(HSMP), NTL, SET(BUS), SET(DV), SET(F), SET(M), SET(O), SET(P), TD112, TIER1(GENERAL), TIER1(GE) and TOC.

On 12th March, the UK Visas and Immigration section indicated that most applications for TIER4 of the points based system should be made online. We have therefore withdrawn the TIER4(G) and TIER4(C) forms. These two forms will be automatically removed from your library.

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.
