[call2bala]

Hi,

PBS Appendix (Tier 1) Self Assessment form

1) In Section 4.6 for Under Earning in Pounds Sterling box: Should i write the amount which tally exchange rate or amount after exchange rate and uplift ratio?

2) In section 7.1 for Maintenance Funds box: Should i mention in Rupees/ Pounds. If in pounds which day exchange rate should i use?

Thanks for your assisstance.

I am not very sure about uplift ratio (since it didnt apply to me) but you can search the forum and find out.

For earnings conversion (from guidance)

An applicant should use the closing exchange rate on the OANDA website at www.oanda.com/currency/classic-converter on the last day of the period for which he/she has claimed earnings in that currency. This is an independent website, for which we are not responsible.

For maintenance conversion (from guidance) :

The exchange rate of overseas currency will be made using the OANDA rate conversion on the date of application. www.oanda.com

The guidance document is here : http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... idance.pdf

Good Luck !

Referring PBS calculator PDF is extremely helpful for such queries.
For #1 --> PBS calculator says 'pound sterling' WITHOUT uplift ratio, so put that amount. I put @12000/13000 pound as my annual salary.


For #2 --> I put 'NNNN INR'. (currency sign in the end). I was safe till
80 GBP/INR conversion rate so I didn't bother about exchange rate.

This is my application write-up
Hope it helps.
