For Category B salaried income, are non-guaranteed bonuses treated as "salaried income" or "non-salaried income" (and therefore worked out as the annualised 6-month average of the bonuses)?
I am referring to paragraph 5.5.7 in the Financial Requirement document:
5.5.7
Overtime, commission-based pay and bonuses (which can include tips and gratuities
paid via a tronc scheme registered with HMRC) will be counted as income from
employment where they have been received in the 6 or 12 months prior to the date of
application as applicable. Sometimes the person will receive the same amount of
income from overtime each month; sometimes overtime payments will vary, with
different amounts (if any) each month. All overtime in salaried employment will be
calculated based on the approach to income from non-salaried employment. This will be
an annualised 6-month average for the overtime which will be added to the level of the
gross annual salary.
