EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Immigration (Leave to Remain) (Fees) Regulations 2003 ("the 2003 Regulations"). The 2003 Regulations prescribe the fee which is to be paid in connection with certain immigration applications, in particular an application for leave to remain in the United Kingdom or an application for the variation of leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, and make provision for exemptions from the requirement to pay the prescribed fee in connection with these applications.
Regulation 4 of these Regulations inserts into the 2003 Regulation two further exemptions from the requirement to pay the prescribed fee. Pursuant to these exemptions, no fee is payable in connection with an application for leave to remain, or an application for the variation of leave to enter or remain, in the United Kingdom where:
(i) the application is made in respect of a child under 18 who is being provided with assistance, accommodation or maintenance by a local authority, or
(ii) the application is made in respect of a person who has limited leave to remain which was granted outside the provisions of the immigration rules when he was under 18 on the rejection of his claim for asylum, and is seeking further leave to remain outside the immigration rules.
