Honestly this is now reap off. ILR is the hardest hit with the following extras after a huge £100 increament:

* An additional £50 for each dependant applied for at the same time is also payable.
** After the first two minors, an additional £50 per extra child included on the application form is also payable.

It is £820 if applied from within UK plus...

* An additional £50 for each dependant applied for at the same time is also payable.
** After the first two minors, an additional £50 per extra child included on the application form is also payable.

These added costs were not there before.

The increased fees are a bit steep; however, the additional fee of £50 for dependants etc. is only fair. Why should a single applicant pay the same fee as somone who has a spouse and, say, 10 kids?
