Increase in Immigration application fees consultation.

Post by AUHS » Wed Nov 13, 2013 5:52 pm

The consultation starts for possible immigration fee increase in visa applications.

This time it looks that UKBA is focusing on ILR applications.

Where do you get the focus on ILR? Reading that it sounds like cost of visas is going to rise sharply across the board.

This consultation is somewhat of a joke - only open for 3 weeks and only to those people the UKBA emails it to.

If you read the report fully then it will be clear.

They mentioned that ILR application fees is less then some Tier 1 applications but ILR holder are enjoying wider range of benefits then the other applicants.

It means special focus on ILR fees.According to me this time the most significant increase will be in ILR section.

Last time it was Tier 1 G main and dependents under the Axe.UKBA is very clever,,,, they knows.....
