Hi,
This is my first post here in the immigrationboards.com and I hope you guys can help me.
I am applying for Tier 2 for a Band 5 Engineering role. The minimum salary for my job title is £23,800 as a new entrant.
My basic salary is £21,500 with a London allowance of around $4,200 which makes it £25,700 in total which is well above the minimum salary.
I the Tier 2 guidance, it is stated that: When we assess the appropriate rate, and when we award points for appropriate salary, we will consider salaries and allowances as follows:
We will consider basic pay (excluding overtime) plus any allowances (such as London weighting) or bonuses, which would also be paid to a settled worker in similar Tier 2 Policy Guidance (Version 011/2014) Page 25 circumstances, provided these allowances and or bonuses are part of your guaranteed salary package. which means the allowance is included.
My problem is that, in the tier 2 application form I am asked for: Gross annual salary (not including allowances) and there is not any other question regarding the amount of my allowance.
Now, I am confused, whether or not the allowance is part of the salary for calculating the minimum salary.
Thanks for your help in advance.
