Hello,
I'm currently under tier 2 general visa and I will be soon eligible for ILR (Feb 2019). The last tier 2 general extension application went very smoothly. However, I have just noticed the gross income I am supposed to be earning is coming short of £150 a month (34000 a year is what I'm supposed to earn as per the extension rules but mistakenly my company has been paying me 32000).

Is there anything my company should be doing to rectify the problem before i apply for ILR or should i go ahead with the application as they have agreed to increase my salary from this month onwards to match with the minimum ILR salary requirement.

*I blindly believed companys HR and accounts team to manage the salary without doing any due diligence. Now I don't know what steps I should be taking.

Any quick advise or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

For ILR, the requirement is £35500 or what the SOC states, whichever is higher, unless you are exempt ie shortage occupation but then you must be paid what your SOC states.

Thank you for the quick response.
Yes, my company is ready to pay 35500 to fulfill the ILR requirement. From next month (December) onwards the salary will be increased to 35500 - this time I will make sure they amend things correctly and pay the agreed amount.

Whereas my other concern is about the mistake in current tier 2 general salary which is from 2017 Feb till Nov 2018 I was paid 32000 when it was supposed to be 34000 as per my social code (during that year the minimum salary criteria for social 2135 was 34000).

Do I or my company need to do anything to rectify this mistake by paying the remaining or will it be fine to apply for ILR as I clear the criteria?
Please advise me on the above.
Thank you.

Hi, If anyone know how to rectify this problem then please let me know asap.
