Tier 2 extension salary requirements

Post by nandini_bn » Wed Dec 02, 2015 8:59 am

Hello,
I am currently on Tier 2 visa under shortage occupation list which was initially applied in 2013. At that time, my salary was £29,000. Now I have to renew my visa in June 2016 and my salary is increased to £30000. Do I still quality to extend my tier to visa under catagory or is there a new salary threshold for people who apply for extension after April 2016 ?

Many thanks

You must be paid the appropriate salary as specified under the SOC code for the job that you do.
That's it.

Thank you. So that would be the 'experienced' salary. That is bases on 39 hrs per week ? If its 35 hrs per week, do we calculate it accordingly or its pretty much what is stated out there ?
