Requirements for job offer

[Steve222]

Hi everyone

I was lucky enough to receive a job offer for 25000 (pro rata) pounds from a reputable tertiary institution for a fixed term of 9 months.

I guess my question is, does this qualify me under the financial obligations for my wife and two kids? As far as I can see, I needed 24000 so it is over but does the fixed term length impact that?

Also, I'm not going to receive the contract for another week or two, so is the formal offer over email acceptable? It has the salary amount on it and start date, or do i need to ask them to email me the offer on their organisations letterhead?

Thanks.

You have to have earned £1550 a month for six months, an offer alone is not enough, assuming u are in UK.

Sorry, should have said I'm outside the UK and have been earning a decent salary here for the last six months.

Maybe you are talking about saving but these needs to be £62500 being maintained from the last 6 months.
