Revised codes of practice and salary for skilled workers

[dk2011]

Hi ,
I have following query related to SOC code and minumum salary requirement .
06/April/2013 onwards:

2132 Software professionals 2135 IT business analysts, architects and systems designers
Related job titles:
• Business analyst (computing)
• Data communications analyst
• Systems analyst
• Systems consultant
• Technical analyst (computing)
• Technical architect

[b]Salary rates: New entrant: £24,900 / Experienced: £30,600
Does that mean an experienced architect should have minimum annual salary of 30,600 pounds ?[/b]

I'm confused becuase as per the old code minimum salary for architect is below.

Soc code :2132 Software professionals
Possible job title(s) :Systems architect or systems planner
Job description:Responsible for the detailed design and sizing of the
installation architecture with regards to hardware, software and networks. Would have knowledge of design methods and be capable of directing system programmers. Would be expected to have several years in depth experience of specific operating systems, databases and network.
Minimum rate: £46,800

[b]So , minimum salary for technical architect should be £30,600 as of 06/apr/2013 ? Can someone clearify please ?[/b]

Hello All

I hope someone can help me with this.

If the SOC code mentions a salary of 30,600 based on 39 hours per week; and I earn 30,000 with my contracted hours of 35 hours per week, should i be fine to apply for my ILR?

Also how do I do the calculations to show the Home Office. Or should I just mention my salary and the hours I work I am contracted to work per week and they will do the necessary calculations or should I ask the HR of my company to pro rate my salary to 39 hours / week equivalent?

Any Advice will be much appreciated.

Thanks
