The core cost of your ILR application comes from the Home Office application fee. As of October 2023, this fee stands at £2,885. This fee applies to each person applying for ILR, so factor this in if you're applying as a family.
Additionally, you may need to consider the cost of biometric residence permits (BRPs) for each applicant, which typically range from £19.20 to £40, depending on factors such as whether you apply inside or outside the UK. Other potential expenses include fees for any required English language tests or Life in the UK tests, as well as postage and courier charges for sending documents.
It's crucial to budget for these costs and understand any fee waivers or exemptions that may apply based on your circumstances. By being aware of the financial aspects of your ILR application, you can avoid surprises and plan effectively for a successful residency journey in the UK.

Planning for Additional Costs
While the core application fee is a significant expense, there might be additional costs to consider for a complete picture of your ILR journey:
- Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS): You’ll likely need to pay the IHS, a healthcare surcharge introduced by the UK government. The IHS amount depends on the length of your intended stay in the UK. (We recommend checking the latest IHS rates on the UK government website before applying.)
- Biometric Enrollment Fee: Attending an appointment to provide fingerprints and a digital photograph incurs a separate fee.
- Legal Fees: Hiring an immigration solicitor for guidance and support throughout the application process comes with associated legal fees.
The Value of Legal Expertise for Your ILR Application
While navigating the ILR application process independently is an option, partnering with an experienced immigration solicitor offers valuable benefits:
- Expertise and Efficiency: Immigration solicitors possess in-depth knowledge of UK immigration law and procedures. They can ensure your application adheres to all requirements, potentially saving you time and avoiding costly errors. This can be especially helpful if your situation involves any complexities.
- Peace of Mind: Having a solicitor handle the complexities of the application process relieves you of stress and allows you to focus on other aspects of your life, like preparing for your move to the UK.
- Increased Success Rate: Immigration solicitors have a proven track record of securing successful ILR applications for their clients. Their experience can significantly increase your chances of a smooth and positive outcome.
