From May 2017 the Government is increasing probate fees from a flat fee of £155 to a fee based on the value of the estate. These new fees will range from £300 to £20,000 and will have to be paid upfront. 97% of people who responded to the consultation did not agree with this proposal. The probate registry is already covering its own costs and this is really a stealth tax. Please sign the petition below.

The current fee for all estates is £155. The change mean fees on 42% of estates will increase by 2 to 129 times, payable even if the estate passes to spouse or charity. There is no difference in the amount of work to issue a Grant for £100k or £800k and yet the fees will be £3,700 more.

Please support this campaign to protect Attendance Allowance for the many older people in our area that require this vital benefit to pay for the care they need.

As we age, many of us will develop long-term illness or disability. And very often this means a higher price tag for day to day things that can help us to remain healthy and independent. Attendance Allowance is a weekly payment that helps older disabled people meet some of the extra costs they face....
