Is stated on your payslips as the working days to be 32.. I mean that includes sundays as well. Are you sure that on the payslip, the number of working days are stated and mentioned to be 32.

Sorry goforuk

I am still not getting the issue..

Can you explain further
a) what is your claim period
b) what about the payslip you received for December what is mentioned there

This will certainly help the members to understand the issue better.

Cheers

I joined a new company ,for which I am currently working , on Dec 31,07.
I received the salary for this one day(dec 31,07) along with my Jan 08 payslip.Hence the number of working days for Jan 08 which normally reflects as 31 now shows 32(Dec 31+ jan 1 to Jan 31).

Now since my ClaimPeriod is from Jan01,08 to Dec 31,08, I am confused as what will the case worker think about the number of working days:32 in my Jan 08 payslip.Also I dont know how to substantiate it.

Hope this helps...

Hi GoforUk

Read the guidelines carefully point# 84 it states

If the applicant claims for the period of earnings that is more than 12 months we will assess the most recent period of 12 months which he/she has provided evidence.

There are couple of things you can do in this case,
a) leave it the way it is, and be sure that you qualify by prorating your January salary for 31 days
b) Change your claim amount from 1st jan to 31st dec and be sure to include an explanation in the covering letter for your earnings.

I would prefer the later.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Go with (1) above. However if you are too concerned then wait for a few more days and claim for Feb1 2008 to 31 Jan 2009.
