Railway Penalty Fare Question
Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2017 2:45 pm
Hi all,
I saw a few similar topics but wanted to get further clarity on a railway penalty fare when it comes to declaring it on the naturalisation form.
A few months back I was issued a penalty fare of £20 from south western railway which was paid on the spot. I then appealed online for a refund at the AS Appeals Service but my appeal was declined.
Now I understand this is not a criminal offence but does anyone know on whether it counts as a civil offence and if it needs to be declared as such in the form?
I am also unsure on whether this would fall under "fines" or the "fixed penalty" section under the good character requirements guide?
If someone could provide clarity it'd be much appreciated!
thank you!
