Sorry. I wasn’t too clear. I don’t meet the £62,500 threshold but have near £40,000.
I believe you will be ok with umbrella employment letter & 6months Payslips. Pay can vary with overt times or many other reasons, Its better to clarify as much as possible.

Re: Umbrella company - Salaried employment??

Different payments won't be an issue, as long as you get the employment letter matches to pay slips. Or as above suggested, may be worth going for savings route to avoid minor confusion.

Thanks in advance.
