Letter from employer - meaning

Post by marh » Sat Oct 10, 2020 12:03 am

Hi

Plaese, Can me anyone help with LETTER FROM EMPLOYER and meanings from Appendix FM-SE?
I found nothing how to count or what period for GROSS ANNUAL SALARY in Appendix guide.



my info:
application for Fiance VISA
Non-salaried / permanent / 32.5 hours per week(without break) / weekly salary / more than 4 years
bonus every 3rd month
bonuses are not contractured
overtimes possible if required
salary:
the last 12 months about £19,000 (with bonuses+overtimes)
the last 6 months about £9,800 (with bonuses+overtimes)
gross current salary is £450/week (if I do not count bonus or overtimes)
old salary £10.2/hour is until Sept 2019
new raise £11/hour is from 13th Sept 2019
new raise about £12/hour will be again in 1 or 2 weeks

I can apply cat A
I will provide Sponsor’s cover letter with financial explanation about salaries too.

--question
I know what is Gross Annual Income what appendix2 asks in point 3.11. (paragraph 13)
FIANCE/SPOUSE VISA needs the last 6 months to meet minimum £18,600 for employment over 6 months.
Letter from employer asks "read below".

Please, what is number 2 and 4?
I do not know what to ask my officer for GROSS ANNUAL SALARY.
I am not sure about meanings what to ask my officer(accountant).
As Gross annual salary he wanted to provide my P60 2019/2020 and not to count my payslips.
Probably I did told him what exatly I wanted and I do not want to fail FIANCE VISA.

if 12 months prior Visa (to count all gross income from 52 payslips including overtimes+bonuses)
or
P60 (probably NO)
or
if 6 months prior Visa (to count all gross income from 26 payslips including overtimes+bonuses)

FIANCE/SPOUSE VISA needs the last 6 months to cross minimum £18,600 for employment over 6 months.

1. hub level 1 (it is on contract)
2.
3. 10th Jan 2014 (when I started a job)
4. ..........is that my current salary £11/hour from 13th Sept 2019?
5. permanent full time 7h(35 hour with unpaid 30 minutes launch break) and non-salaried employment



-----------------
GOV.UK appendix guide
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... d-evidence
A letter from the employer(s) who issued the payslips confirming
1. the employment;
2. the gross annual salary;
3. how long the employment has been/was held;
4. the period over which the person has been paid the level of salary stated in their application; and
5. the type of employment (permanent, fixed-term contract or agency)
-----------------------------------little different words
GOV.UK - Spouse/Fiance VISA
https://www.gov.uk/uk-family-visa/proof-income
A letter from the employer
you or your partner are employed there
1. the job title or position you or your partner hold
3. how long you or your partner have worked there
5. the type of contract (for example, permanent, fixed term)
2. what you or your partner earn before tax and National Insurance
4. how long you or your partner have been paid your current salary
the payslips are genuine

**********************************************************************************

-----question 3

paragraph 18(e)
Please, what is meaning?
For the purpose of paragraph 13(a)(i), in respect of a person in non-salaried employment at the date of application “the level of gross annual salary relied upon in the application” shall be no greater than the annual equivalent of the person’s average gross monthly income from non-salaried employment in the 6 months prior to the date of application, where that employment was held throughout that period.

The way you have drafted your query is fiercely nebulous but by looking on few key bits of your post, what I have discerned is that you are on none-salaried income with no base salary, and you & your employer are wanting to know as what should be put in employer letter. If so, then they can give the total of your last 12 months wages which is in your case is £19000 or provide annualised average income (9800/6*12)= £19600. In addition to this, other key information such as job title, job commencement date, rate per hour, overtime, bonuses, type of contract should also be stated on that letter.

Sorry mate. My fault to be awkward.

I will explain more about my salary in Sponsor’s letter.

I sometimes write long sentences and maybe with useless meanings. If I am worried about some things.
Very sensitive behaviour. :roll:

I described my job first.

Why I asked that. Because I have read more than 50 files, appendix rules, and VISA rules more times.
I found nothing what is GROSS ANNUAL SALARY what immigration requires for financial.
I found what is GROSS ANNUAL INCOME for appendix(gross annual salary+other income what can be counted for VISA)
My officer can not know what is needed for VISA and easy to fail VISA about £1.700 if I ask him different info.
He told me "I will not count your salaries".
Second officer will return back from long long time "Home Work" because of COVID.

Mate thanks.

Two more questions.

Will be salary £18,400 in tax year 2019/2020 as reason that UK FIANCE VISA will be rejected because the last 6 payslips are counted?

Do I need to write how much salary for bonus(4x per year)+overtimes or just overtimes are possible but bonus is not contractured.?

rate will be old and new and when started

much thanks

Actual requirement is £18600 instead £18400 but if your last 6 months (not just 6 payslips) of wages showing £9300 then should be good to go.

If you have no base salary then the total of whole can be given

I will still suggest you to read the official guidance because your query is not well drafted:

thanks mate

My salary is non-salaried / weekly
all payslips are below £1550( £350/week)
last six months - only salary £9074 / bonus 220 / overtimes £600
I am waiting for a raise because we wil have back pay for months July/Aug/Sept over £500
I want to state raise on Letter from Employer when started and how much
it is different if £11 or above £12/hour for me.

below £1550 for salaried employment - VISA rejected if no additional overtime/bonus or other non-employment income (rent/saving etc.)


I am waiting for raise £12.5 which be fine for SPOUSE VISA after wedding (no needed overtimes).
I get it now.

Mate, In paragraph 18(e) is condition GREATER, for non-salaried
It is possible to explain meaning if no problem?

For the purpose of paragraph 13(a)(i), in respect of a person in non-salaried employment at the date of application “the level of gross annual salary relied upon in the application” shall be no greater than the annual equivalent of the person’s average gross monthly income from non-salaried employment in the 6 months prior to the date of application, where that employment was held throughout that period.

thanks mate for exhausting advice
