Category B payslips before the date of application?

Post by Iliketea33 » Fri Feb 02, 2024 10:16 pm

Hi everyone

We're looking to submit my wife's application very soon before the ihs increase.

I'm concerned about the financial requirement. We'll be doing category B. I had a job before for 3 years that was salaried and is comfortably over the 18.6k requirement, i quit in December last year.

I've been working for an agency paid per hour, payslips weekly. I've been working there since January 8th. So far I have recieved two full payslips. But I had the week off last week to get married and recieved zero pay for that week. I'll get a new payslip next week with full pay though. With the three payslips and the week with zero pay I'll receive over 18.6k if I take my pay so far, divide by 4 and times by 52.

My question is: can I submit my latest Payslip after we apply this Sunday 4th or Monday 5th Feb? I wont receive the payslip until Wednesday 7th Feb and won't be paid until Thursday 8th. However, payslip will show the period I was paid for and this will be before the date of application.

If the IHS fees weren't increasing I would of course wait until I receive the pay but im really hoping i can submit the application beforehand. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Four months payslips will not meet the needs. You are not going to meet the financial requirements if the four payslips don’t add up to £9300. The calculation will be the current earnings for the last 6 months and multiply it by 2. If that does not meet the requirements it will be a refusal.
You will not get your application fee back. You would get the IHS amount back.

Sorry I was quoting category A


Category B takes your earnings for 12 months prior to application.
Does your total earnings exceed £18,600

It is an exact calculation - does the amount in the 12 months meet or exceed £18,600. It is a simple question. If his previous salary met it great, if the agency meets it great - but there has to be an exact calculation. Until the calculation is done and is evidenced until then the answer is assumed.
