The Immigration and Nationality (Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2016
These Regulations amend the Immigration and Nationality (Fees) Regulations 2016 (S.I. 2016/226) (“the Fees Regulations 2016”). In particular, this instrument amends the definition of a positive conclusive grounds decision for the purposes of applications for leave to remain in the United Kingdom made by victims of human trafficking, slavery, servitude, or forced or compulsory labour, and the definition of certificate of travel. This instrument also introduces a new fee into the Fees Regulations 2016 for an optional premium service for the expedited processing of a request in connection with a sponsor’s sponsor management system account, and amends the effect of the waivers relating to children being looked after by local authorities.
