For Tier1(General) to ILR, can the paternity leave be shown as an exemption for continuous 12 months earnings? I have taken a paternity leave for 2 weeks for which I received paternity pay which takes me to a lower income band. If I hadn't taken the leave I get 5 points more. I can see there is an option for maternity and adoption related absence for Tier(1) General and the form doesn't say explicitly paternity where as in Tier(2) applicants it says Paternity,maternity or adoption related absences. Even if that can be shown, I am confused about how to calculate the income. Do I need to include 2 weeks before the 12 month period, if so, how do I calculate the salary for 2 weeks. Thanks
