One more question: £800+£533+£533 (Main+dep1+dep2) Did I understand the maintainace fund requirement correctly? Main applicant has been in the UK since June 2009 (apart from 2 visits to India - not more than 2 weeks each) Logo is not mandator in payslip, however is your changed payslip same in a...

finall you have taken the best decision. your points are more than enough. answers to your question. 1. 7 months signed & stamped payslip is fine. correction should not have any problem if signed and stamped. 2. letter from emp is not required for UK exp. ( you get 5 points if uk gross earning is mo...

I would not cancel POE appointment. If it were me I would go for Option - 2. There is no point in claiming more points then required. It would unnecessarily confuse the case worker and would take more time to verify indian salary and bank statement. you have 2 more days to rework on the application ...

Hi Hussainkothari

Have you claimed Gross dividend or Net dividend for calculating previous earning.

I know it should be Gross Dividend, but few caseworkers consider only Net dividend, how was your experience?

Thanks

92. If an applicant is in salaried employment, (including a Director of a company for example) we will assess the applicant’s gross salary before tax. This is sometimes confusing, is "gross salary before tax" is gross on which you pay tax, or before any deduction My Gross pay includes employers N...

@hussainkothari, Thanks, i got what you mean. my accountant has so far given me online advise slips/profit and loss stmt with all details. i hope they would be able to send me printed payslip in payslip format.

very valid question.
was not sure about second extn, but even I saw in the extn form that point for age is graned based on your age as on your initial grant of tier-1.
So,you should get 10 points.

On a differnt note, Can any body confirm how long is the 2nd extention?
is it again 2 years?

Hi ,
I will be applying for Tier 1 visa . My salary has been credited for the past few years to a joint account held by me and my spouse. So when I show my past earnings through my payslips and bank statements, will that be fine?

Hi, I work for a UK based company. I have got my payslips printed on Company headed paper and attested by the CEO of the company (small company :) ). But they say they don't have any company stamps.
