Hi All,

Could you please let me know what's the fee going to be from April 6 and are there any changes in the application form?

Thanks,

New immigration fees from 6 April 2010

It is worth noting that the list of charges linked to by Vinny does not include the additional amount for the Citizenship Ceremony. At the present time the additional amount is £80 per person applying for Naturalisation.

Last year UKBA made this clear. This year it has forgotten to do so, hence the confusion. The link to last year's announcement is ..... click here, where it said :-

Please note that the fees listed in the WMS for "Nationality 6(1) Single", "Nationality 6(1) Joint" and "Nationality Registration Adult/Single Minors" do not include the citizenship ceremony fee of £80 per person. This fee should be added to the fee listed in the WMS if you are applying in these categories. You can find the correct overall fees for these applications - which are also known as "applications for British citizenship" - in our Citizenship fees leaflet.

But this year UKBA neglected to include those words, but they have not abolished the fee for the Citizenship Ceremony.
