Overseas earning while in the UK for Tier 1 General

[mskhan]

Hi,

The point based calculater converting Rupees 2,000,000 to around £74,000 and giving around 45 points.

Is it assuming that this was earned while the applicant was physically present in that country and applied uplift ratio?

What if applicant earned overseas while living in the UK? How should we convert it into GBP?

Cheers

If you are in the UK while earning overseas no uplift ratios can be applied to your salary. The policy guidance mentions it.

But can it be some earning out of total with the uplift for the couple of months I was not in the UK?

Hey, yes all earnings that you made while NOT in the UK can use uplift ratios.However, this will be verfied by checking whether you were actually in the country you are claiming for.
You will need to use the OANDA exchange rate for the last date on which you are claiming earnings for while overseas.

For "Select the country where you earned the money." you must enter United Kingdom. The policy guidance explains that "where you earned the money" refers to where you were physically present. For the rest fill it in accordingly (e.g. correct currency and rate) - it will give you the correct result without applying the uplift ratio.
