Lasting Power of Attorney - Fee Refund

About a year ago, the Office of the Public Guardian reduced their fee for registering Lasting Powers of Attorneys to £82.

It has now been announced that individuals who registered their Lasting Power of Attorney before this time, but after 1st April 2013, you can apply for a partial refund of your registration fee. You’ll even receive interest at 0.5%!

The amount of the refund depends when you registered the LPA, as follows:

April to September 2013 - £54

October 2013 to March 2014 - £34

April 2014 to March 2015 - £37

April 2015 to March 2016 - £38

April 2016 to March 2017 - £45

If you qualified for a fee remission as a result of having a low income, you’ll qualify for a refund of half the amounts shown above.
