Applications can be made in person at a Premium Service Centre for a same day consideration
of your application. There is an additional fee for this service and all fees will be taken when you
book an appointment. You can only make on-line or in person payments by using one of our
accepted credit or debit cards (see below). For more details and to book an appointment please

missing information it may be rejected as invalid. Your application will not be considered and
your fee will be refunded less an administration fee of 25 for each person included in the

under European Convention on Human Rights Article 3 medical grounds, tick the box at item 5
on page 7 to confirm this.

18 in the care of social services at the time of application, tick the box at item 5 on page 7 to
confirm this.

If you are applying under one of the above categories, failure to tick the box at item 5 on page 7
