ILR Earning Calculation

[kashifmasud]

Hi

I am applying for ILR in Tier 1 (General) category. Question is Does Earning counts for basic salary or Gross Salary, Basic Salary as in before Pension Contribution deduction or after deduction ? I know earning should be before tax but the way my salary is calculated is:

First Basic Salary

Then Gross Salary = Basic Salary - Pension Contribution

and then PAYE & NI deductions from Gross Salary gives Paid Salary.

I have done my calculations based on Basic Salary, although it doesn't make a big difference even if I do it on Gross Salary. So does anyone know about it please?

your salary calculation is done on Basic salary

Doest matter. It should be total taxable salary

Thanks both.
Yes either I include or exclude pension deduction, earning window remain same. So fingers cross
