uplifting

Post by aryan20 » Tue Sep 09, 2008 7:47 pm

Hi,

I am in need of an URGENT .. advice from you , about my situation as described below.

I am planning to apply for HSMP this october .
I came on a deputation to UK from an Indian company .

in the 12 month block, for the first 8 months i was payed IN the following way .

Indian salary credited to Indian bank account .
UK per-diems credited to a FOREX account in the same bank .

the Indian pay slip shows
----------------------

Indian salary in INR.
UK allowances in GBP- furthur conveted to INR again .
Gross pay
Net pay after taxes.
----------------------------------------------
and.. NO SEPARATE UK PAYSLIP for the Uk allowances.

-----------------------------------------------

after 8 months i joined a company in UK, with a fresh work permit stamping .

I am with them for the last 4 months , and get a NORMAL UK payslip.
so that makes 12 months. IN TOTAL . ,,,

--------------------------------------------------
so i shall have to apply with ,

8 months of Indian payslips - with the 1st company .
4 months of UK payslips - with the 2nd company .

------------------------------------------------------

how will they calculate my earnings using the UPLIFT ratio in this case.
plz.. advice , i need to apply for a tier-1 VISA .immediately.

You cannot apply uplift ratio to your earnings as you were present and working in UK during the months you are claiming income points for.

Read para 115 of the Tier 1 policy guidance.

thanks for the reply ,

BUT in para 116 it says , if earnings were made in more than one country , Uplift ratio will apply for the country in which earnings were made.


Now in my case , I as working in UK , but my earnings reflected in India . Both the INDIAN salary and the Uk allowance were all credited to the Indian bank accounts. So is it not true , that this is actually an INDIAN earning. ..... as the INdian bank accounts were credited. ..

plz suggest..

What you need to understand is that the country you work in determines your income band.

Where your salary gets credited is of no significance at all.
