Multiple jobs earnings for points?

Post by Saga » Fri Sep 04, 2009 1:17 am

Hi everyone,

I have a job with annual income 24k.

I have another part-time job which will enable me to earn about £2k in one year.

Can I show joint income from both jobs to claim points on earnings as my I cannot score maximum points on my age ?

Many Thanks.

Yes you can. Provided you show proper evidence e.g. payslips+salary deposits in banks for the same.

Hi chetanojha,

Thanks for your reply.

I have another question. Is it possible for extra pay other than the base salary (overtime, bonuses etc.) to be counted in the total income for points?

Many Thanks.

Yes. Keep in mind you need to provide evidence for that as well. If you are paid base salary+overtime/bonus and it is reflected in payslips+bank statement you are fine.
If bonus/OT is paid separately in your bank you would need letter from your employer mentioning it.

Yes, you can do 2 jobs or even more at the same time.

As chetan said, dont forget to provide bank statement and payslips in support of your claim.

Is there a limit to the number of hours worked per week for Tier 1 ??

I am aware of such restrictions in other categories but couldn't find any similar info. for Tier 1.

Thanks.

As long as your overtime and bonus are included in your Gross Pay on the payslips there is no problem whatsoever.
