Do i need higher income when applying for ILR than tier 1

Post by eightwoods » Fri Mar 01, 2013 8:32 pm

Let's say i go through tier 1 general path to ILR and the income when applying ilr is lower than the time applying for tier 1, even though the current income still falls in the same band as before.
i know in the sticked threads it's said that whether income is higher or not is irrelevant but i've heard from some people that the officials in PEO ask applicants if their incomes are higher than the time they applied for tier 1. any information is appreciated.

you just need to score the required points - there is no salary comparison.

You have been misinformed. Just go by the rules in place.
Thanks!
