Jumbo passport but fee deduction for standard passport

Post by London_calling » Mon Apr 23, 2018 9:25 pm

I applied for naturalisation by online application (NDRS via Council) on 12/03/2018.

I applied for Jumbo passport stating £85.50 fee on the postal passport application at the same time via JCAP.

However, the fee got deducted for my passport application last week was only £72.50 which is for a standard passport.

Question

Has any one applied for a Jumbo British passport recently along with naturalisation application? Did you mention £85.50 on your passport application form for a jumbo passport? How much fee was deducted (usually a month from application date for NDRS) i.e. £85 for jumbo or £72.50 for standard passport (before 27/03/2018 applications which has gone up since)?

Any responses will be much appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

I have applied for Jumbo passport through NDRS/JCAP and mentioned the £85.50 fee on the payment form which is at the back of the booklet which comes with the passport form. The said fee was deducted.

Yep, same for me - applied for the Jumbo passport and choose the appropriate payment but they only deducted the money for a standard one!

The fee for passport when applying through paper application is £85 for standard passport and £95 for jumbo passport.

The fee was increased around 27th of March 2018

Thanks
I am not an immigration lawyer, so comments here are not an advise. My comments are from my own experience and interpretation of information which is available publicly.

We are discussing about the passport applications sent BEFORE the fee rise. The original post holder has submitted his application before 27th March.
