The new fees apply to all applications received in the Home Office on or after 1 April 1982. They are necessary because of the rise in the cost of processing applications.

THE FULL FEE MUST BE PAID AT THE SAME TIME AS YOU SEND IN THE APPLICATION, but the fee will be refunded if the application is unsuccessful.
