Hi
Hope someone can help, i am a British citizen and my husband is a Indian, the time has come to make our application for his 1st visa extension, previously my salary alone had met the financial requirement however i am currently not working therefore we are going to use my husband income, I am a little unsure how it would work with my husband he is paid an hourly rate which working 40 hours a week does not meet the minimum £18600 however since he started working for the company in 2015 he has worked 15 - 20 hours OT (paid time and a half) per week and this has pushed his earning closer to £28,000 for the past two years and he's likely to earn that again this year. I understand i can submit his last 6 months (26 weeks) wage slips along with bank statement however i am unsure of how to fill in the form. For 7.3 i ticked income from salaried employment and the used the following formula to fill in current salary - 26 weeks payslips /6 * 12 = Current annual salary - Can anyone confirm i have doe this correctly??
Secondly i am going to ask the employer to write a letter confirming:
When he started working for the company (2015 - well over 6 months ago)
Permanent ongoing employment
Job title
Hourly rate
Name of employer
Does the letter also need to include OT if so how can it be worded? Anything else need including?
Many Thanks for reading my post
