I have paid for my application, why is it still showing in ‘draft’?

Once you have made a payment for a planning application the application will remain in ‘draft’ status until the payment has been received by us and cleared.

When the payment has cleared, the application will move to ‘submitted’ status and will be submitted to the local authority.

We recommend paying for your application online, by telephone or bank transfer as these are the fastest payment methods.
