Hi,
Just wondering is pension counted towards earning as its not taxed..say if your monthly salary is £3000 and £500 goes towards pension, so you are taxed only for £2500. so for ILR the salary earing would be 3000 x 12 months or 2500 x 12 months ?
2. also does dependant also need to be in active employment to earn ILR ?
Thanks

Gross salary is accounted for points so it does not matter if you having tax free pension amount coming out of that.
Is your pay slip mentioning that?
I had applied for Tier 1 visa (switch from work permit) with similar case. I was granted points based on my gross salary (my pay slip mention this) so you don't need to worry about this.

I missed you second question. dependent need to not be financially active and make no impact on application

Thanks nishu...
a friend of mine raised this doubt becase it does mention on the payslip salary dedcuted for pension and the rest being taxed...so was confused. so you think that only ggross is calculated and does not matter about the pension being tax free? is it ?
2. my second question is depenedant need to be financial active ? which you have mentioned NO..thanks..releived
