previous income missing month tier1 extension

[hsmpOct2007]

Hi,

Im claiming points for my earnings from May2008-April2009.(12 months)
My payroll company has paid my Jan2009 and Feb2009 salary together in Feb2009, so I don't have a payslip for Jan2009.

So essentially I have only payslips for 11 months and of course the bank statements for each of the payments.

My question is should I split up the claim period as
Period1 : May2008 - Dec2008 Earnings = X GBP
Period2 : Feb2009 - Apr2009 Earnings = Y GBP

OR

should I just claim for
May2008 - Apr2009 Earnings = X+Y GBP

The reason Im asking this is, a friend of mine filed his extension and he had a similar situation , not exactly the above, but he had a missing bank statement for a month, so they considered only the months starting from the date of application upto the mising month, due to the gap.
Though they didnt state the reason, this is what we guessed.

Can someone help with the example Ive mentioned above ?

Appreciate your patience.

Thanks.

Dont split up. Simply put may to april cuz it is your claiming period. add 11 payslips with bank statements. If the job is continuous then no need to break and make it more complicated. Describe this in Cover letter or index ie I got 2 months pay together in so and so month.

There is nothing wrong with your current arrangement (just clarify it in your cover letter) but if you are too stressed out about it and your employer is cooperative, you can think about getting a letter from them detailing monthly gross, net, payment mode, payment date etc and covering all the items included the guidance note.

Thanks Yasa and push_hsmp,

My employer is ready to send me a letter with all relevant details like gross , taxable and net pay.
But again , since they didnt pay me for the month of Jan, I could ask them to mention that they paid me for Jan2009 and Feb2009 in Feb2009.
My only worry is that would HO consider that I do not have consecutive payslips and will just consider my payslips from Feb2009-April 2009 and I wont qualify. ( is that a requirement in the first place, or is it just consecutive 12 months just for the sake of having the period of consecutive 12 months within the 15month rule, as it does say in the guidance that employment may not be continuous in the 12 months, BUT it does not state that they will include all the payments in the period of 12 months if its not continuous , this is the source of my question)

Appreciate your clarifications guys !
