The cover letter is not a requirement, only comes into play when there is or are things to explain further or clarify to ensure CW has the full details or perspective the the answers on the form does not address fully.

Your gross income I.e. before any deductions so do not remove the car allowance from it as received regularly with salary.bexgal01 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 12:05 amHi All,
I am a little confused about the "What is their annual income before tax for this £xxxxxx
employment in GBP (£)?" Finance section and I would appreciate it if anyone could clear this up.
My wife is extending her spousal visa in a month. I got the above question but I am not sure how to answer it. Would I include just my base salary and exclude my car allowance (as it is paid monthly as part of my salary) or I add it as part of my annual income?
I would appreciate an answer. Thanks

Hmm, the HR is also required to write a letter detailing what the annual income is for the applicant/sponsor.AmazonianX wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 3:23 amYour gross income I.e. before any deductions so do not remove the car allowance from it as received regularly with salary.bexgal01 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 12:05 amHi All,

What if the OP writes £43K and HR writes £38K (could happen!), I think that would be conflicting. I think OP should write what the annual income is, provided it exceeds £18,600.Officially, OP doesn't need a penny over this.
If OP needs the buffer to get to the promised land, then I might tend to agree with this line of action. But HR letter would also need to reflect this.
Agreed, and I have no arguments with the details. However, allowances can be removed without prior notice, salaries are standard/fixed as letter of employment or increment details this.AmazonianX wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 12:55 pmOP wrote:Ticktack wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 11:53 amHmm, the HR is also required to write a letter detailing what the annual income is for the applicant/sponsor.AmazonianX wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 3:23 amYour gross income I.e. before any deductions so do not remove the car allowance from it as received regularly with salary.bexgal01 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2023 12:05 amHi All,

(as it is paid monthly as part of my salary)
Which I take to mean captured in pay slips and reflects in account statements as part of remuneration as regular payment. If there is any clarification it goes as employer indicating certain amount is car allowance paid together.
Can OP clarify if the car allowance is itemised in payslip?

I need your help with answering the question below as part of a spousal visa extension. My wife is extending her spousal visa after 2.5 years but I am stuck on the question: "Is your current entry clearance or leave to remain as the partner of one of the following?" I am a British citizen. Would the answer be Yes or No?
and the next question: Is this the first time you have applied for a partner route, or an extension, with your current partner (including as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner)? would it be yes or no?
I appreciate your response. Thanks
Thank you! Good to seek a second opinion on some of these confusing questions.AmazonianX wrote: ↑Sat Aug 26, 2023 7:03 ambexgal01 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 26, 2023 12:31 amHi all,

Consent for the Home Office to request verification checks for joint accounts or third-party support:
"Is the account with a bank or utility company for which you have supplied information and supporting documentation held jointly by you and other people?"
My wife and I only have one utility bill (water bill) in joint names plus another on the council tax. We don't have a joint bank account. Would I choose "Yes" or "No", considering that we only have council and utility bills in joint names even though I pay for both? And once I download the files, which one(s) would I sign, which one(s) would I not sign? Thanks
Thanks for the update. I was just wondering why part 3 won't be applicable in this case. The footnote stated that "if the account is a joint account, all owners should sign." Since we both have a joint names for utility bill + council tax, would we not need to sign this?
