As a deputy you must pay a fee each year to Office of the Public Guardian (OPG). This covers the cost for OPG to supervise and support you. It is usually due on 31 March for the previous year’s supervision.
To avoid any delays processing your payment, please do not pay by cheque.

You can pay online using a debit or credit card. Go to the Supervision payments site and enter your card details.
You will be asked for a reference number when paying. Please use your OPG case number. You will find this on the letters you have received from us.

- Sort Code: 60 70 80
