6 payslips or 6 months employment for spouse visa

Hi All,

I am currently in the process of sponsoring my spouse I earn above the threshold with salaried employment.
I am paid weekly. In the final month (month 6) of the 6months period on which I plan to rely my Boss gave me a raise.
Does this mean I need to provide 12months of payslips?
I was paid cash in hand before this (tax was paid correctly but I was not putting all the money into my bank account every month so I cannot provide 12 months bank statements) do I have to wait a further 6months until I have 12 months bank statements or will it be ok if I submit the 6 I have now considering it was a raise at the same company.

Hi, I applied for my husband. I started working my first job out of university on the 7th of September and applied once I received my 6th payslip in February. That means I wasn’t working for 1 week in September and my September Pay was lower than all the other months but still above the threshold. The visa was accepted. So as long as you have 6payslips and 6 bank statements it should be fine.

I may have misunderstood, but your bank statements need to exactly match the stated payment from your payslips. So you can apply when these conditions are met for 6 months. You need 6 months worth of pay slips and bank statements.

No its not correct. Correct assumption is that if you are a salaried person then the lowest wages figure during the last 6 months will be considered and if that lowest wages figure still can meet the financial requirement by multiplying to 12 then it should be fine.

The OP said the salary is 3x the £18,600.
But that wasn’t my original point, my point was it doesn’t matter if the OP’s friend didn’t work a “full” month as long as he was paid and has a payslip for that month and the figure is above £1550 then he should be fine.

Anyone can take unpaid leave or off days which isn't an issue as long as the required financial threshold is met through 6 months or 12 months of employment. Hope it clear you now.
