Regarding payslips - from Appendix FM-SE:
TUPE is perfectly acceptable! Just ask your employer to make it clearer in your employment letter about it. It would been treated as if you have been employed for 6 months even though the company only took over 3 months but employment is continuous. CAT A is perfect fine.GOLDI3 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 4:13 pmThank you manci. I have had a look at the example but remain a little unclear.
I have been in continuous employment at the same place of work since 2013. My employment transferred under TUPE to a new company so my T&C's of my previous employer and contract is protected and remains the same. I have a letter from my current employer stating this.
Will this letter be enough to apply under category A where I can provide this letter along with six months payslips (3 from current employer and 3 from previous company) and mention in a supporting cover letter that it is continuous employment? In addition, I was also going to mention in the supporting cover letter that should the TUPE not be considered as continues employment to than consider the application under category B and provide additional six months payslips totalling 12 months as part of the application.
or
Should I scrap Category A and just apply under category B?
Thank you
Category A as it is continuous employment only change of company structure or ownership. 6 months evidence of income and payslips backed by employer letter. Clarifications can be made in cover letter.GOLDI3 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 29, 2021 4:13 pmThank you manci. I have had a look at the example but remain a little unclear.

@todmatt nd @AmazonianX - do you have experience or do you know of precedents that applying under Category A would be accepted by the HO under the circumstances?
It is not consider as different employer because OP right is protected under TUPE so therefore their employment rights from previous company still applies to them with the new company.manci wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 9:57 am@todmatt nd @AmazonianX - do you have experience or do you know of precedents that applying under Category A would be accepted by the HO under the circumstances?
Employment law and immigration law are different.
The terms and condition of employment may have remained the same but the sponsor is now a different company with a different sponsor licence. As the employer changed the OP has not
been with the same employer for at least 6 months prior to the date of application, which is the condition for Category A.
I would suggest that it would be safer for the OP to apply under category B - he doesn't have problems producing payslips for 12 months.

I have decided to apply under Cat B but need some assistance on how to show the calculations for the cover letter and explain how I meet the financial requirements.
My payslips are as follows:
1 Aug 2021 2458.08 Current employer
2 Jul 2021 3004.32 Current employer
3 Jun 2021 2867.76 Current employer
4 May 2021 3148.50 Previous employer
5 Apr 2021 2458.08 Previous employer
6 Mar 2021 1775.28 Previous employer
7 Feb 2021 2276.00 Previous employer
8 Jan 2021 3550.56 Previous employer
9 Dec 2020 2867.76 Previous employer
10 Nov 2020 2048.40 Previous employer
11 Oct 2020 3004.32 Previous employer
12 Sep 2020 2321.52 Previous employer
I also have a letter from my current employer stating I work full-time permanent, hourly pay rate of £10.38, average weekly contractual hours of 42 hours.
How do I show calculations for satisfying both parts of Cat B?
Any clarification on this would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance

I was confused as the letter from my employer states I work full-time permanent, hourly pay rate of £10.38, average weekly contractual hours of 42 hours so I thought I would need to to show the following calculations as anything above this is overtime and not alway garenteed and cannot be counted towards the financial requirments:
42 hours x 10.38 = £435.96 per week x 52 weeks = £22,669.92
I'm assuming I should ignore the above calulations. I have written a draft for the cover letter under Maintenance. Would this be okey: Ignore the calculations above because the UKVI rules on how your income should be calculate is different to the formula above especially if you work more than your contractual hours each month which makes your income varying as per your income above.
My husbands three most recent monthly payslips including August 2021 provided by Bidvest Noonan shows his average annualised gross income from his current employment up to the date of application exceeds the required £18,600.00 meeting the stated financial requirement under Appendix FM Category B part (1) as follows:
Under part (1) of Category B – Annualised Average
= (gross income from employment in the period prior to the date of application for which that employment has been held, divided by the number of months) multiplied by 12
= ((2458.08+3004.32+2867.76) ÷ 3) x 12
= (8,330.16 ÷ 3) x 12 = £33,320.64 which far exceeds the £18,600.00 threshold required for maintenance cost
In addition, my husband has received in the twelve months prior to the date of application (from August 2021 backdating to September 2020) a level of income that meets part (2) of the calculation for Category B as follows:
Under part (2) of Category B – Actual Income
= actual employment income over last 12 months
= 2458.08+3004.32+2867.76+3148.50+2458.08+1775.28+2276.00+3550.56+2867.76+2048.40+3004.32+2321.52 = £31,780.58 which also far exceeds the required £18,600.00 for maintenance cost
Also, what is meant by "Where the person is in non-salaried employment – the level of gross annual
employment income relied upon in the application can be no greater than the annual
equivalent of the person’s average gross monthly income from that non-salaried
employment." You have used the formula above because non salaried is worked out by doing your average annualised salary.
Thank you

I started the online application and under Finance (current employment) it asks,
"What is their annual income before tax for this employment in GBP (£)?" £33,320.64 -
I am assuming this should be the calculated annualised average of the three months = £33,320.64 - is that right or should it only be the sum total of the three months?
Also, for previous employment it asks,
"What was their annual income before tax for this employment in GBP (£)?"
Should this be the actual income calculated for the 12 months = £31,780.58 as explained in the cover letter or should this only be the sum of the nine months income from previous employer as follows:
3148.50+2458.08+1775.28+2276.00+3550.56+2867.76+2048.40+3004.32+2321.52 = £23,450.42
In this section, you will need to add each gross income you have received in the period you were employed by them so from the above it was from May 2021 to September 2020 assuming this is for one employer.
You assistants is highly appreciated. Thank you
Do not tag your questions onto other members topics. Post moved to your own topic where you should keep all your in one thread/topic.GOLDI3 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 02, 2021 8:09 amGood morning all.
I need clarification for the Consents.
My wife is the Application, I am the Sponsor, and we live with my father at a council property.
She is relying on my income to meet the financial requirements; we will be providing joint and single correspondence letters in our names; and because my farther is the tenant of the property we will be providing my father’s supporting letter, his passport as proof of address, and letters from the council evidencing he is the tenant.
Please correct me if I am wrong:
My wife (the applicant) will sign Consent part 1 and I (the sponsor) will be signing Part 2 along with the declaration.
Who will need to sign consent part 3? My father is not providing the applicant with financial support but will be providing his documentation to support the application. Should he be the one to sign part three?
Any clarification in this matter would be highly appreciated. Thank you
