FLRM Application..... EMPLOYMENT LETTER QUERY

[ticktok123]

This week, we need to apply for FLRM after 2.5 years on spouse visa, my wife is the applicant.

She has a full time, permanent job with variable contract hours (zero hours), the pay figure (£15.50 per hour) is mentioned but hours are not mentioned in her employment contract. She started this job in October 2018.

She is a key worker, and been working throughout the Covid19 crisis.

Last year, she earned £27,000 that is on her P60.

She earns £2200 - £2600 per month.

In the employment letter, her employer can confirm her job, start date, title, full time, permanent and her current salary since 1st April 2020 and earnings from April to June, but the employer is not willing to list all 6 months earnings (which we are relying upon Jan to June) in the employment letter as they say we will write in the letter that payslips should be looked at for these details.

Does this kind of employment letter meet the requirements of FLRM, where only 3 months’ salary is listed instead of all 6 months (which we are relying upon in application to meet £18,600) by the employer ???

Please help we are very confused. Thanks a lot.

Sorry forgot to add an other query.

As she has variable income per month ranging between £2200 to £2600 and variable hours too.

Could she apply under category A and submit 6 months of payslips and bank statements, (they surely meet the requirement of £18600)??

Or does she need to apply under category B and submit bank statements and salary slips for 12 months?

First of all, CAT A is better option since you have been with the employer since 2018 although CAT B would work as well but avoid too much paper work.

It's not mandatory for the employer to list on payslips in the employment letter as the Appendix FM SE didn't specified this so I would even ask them to remove it otherwise write a cover letter and explain how you meet the requirement using the formula below.

In order to meet the financial requirement.

Add the last 6 months payslips divide it by 6 x 12 = as long as the total is £18,600 then you are fine.

If the employer is unwilling to give the total of last 6 months rather only 3 months than better to request them to not even provide that instead add a sentence that "providing such information is against their policy".
