question regarding salary tier1 -> ILR

hi,

I understand that from now on we have to meet the salary criteria that was in place when we first applied for hsmp/tier, to be eligible for ILR, is it official now ?

Also do the case workers also check if the pay has been increasing, or rather not decreased from any of the previous years when we apply for ILR ?

I was in perm job before and had a salary, but now I operate a limited company and I am confused if I should take some tax blows and show high salary/dividends( same as my permanent job_ or stick to the minimal I will require for claiming the points enough for ILR.

Kindly advise,

Golu

hi,

Can anybody shed some light on what happens if salary is lower than the previous years salary ? does it affect the ILR ?

As seen in some other posts, if your total points are the same or higher than previous points claim, you should be fine.
In your case, i would advise to continue taking your minimum salary and pay out a dividend to reach the pay band that you require.
Thanks
