FLR M FINANCIAL REQUIREMENT - FOUR WEEKLY PAY

[UK2013A]

Dear All,

I am switching my Mrs spouse visa from 10 year route to 5 years.
Bit confused with financial requirement as to what category I would go for.

I have been working at the same job for years - I work on the shift pattern of 4 on and 4 off and get paid four weekly (paid hourly rate) - so I do 156 hours in one pay period of four weeks and 180 hours in the other (plus any overtime and holiday entitlement etc) and this rotates in the same way until end of the year I get 13 payslips.
Now I am not sure how can I use the payslips?

If I am using the last 6 payslips - they would cover 24weeks not 26!?
and If I am using 7 payslips - they would cover 28weeks not 26!? not sure what to do ::)

Can I use my holiday pay as the part of my salary - I had 12 days booked in February and got paid for it - Also I get paid double on public holidays - wonder if that can be used in the salary.

****************************
What does an employment letter states!
A letter from the employer(s) who issued the
payslips confirming

1. the employment;
Currently working full time as a job title on hourly rate of £//

2. the gross annual salary;
gross annual income of current year

3. how long the employment has been/was held;
Start date

4. the period over which the person has been paid the level of salary stated in their application;
Gross income of last 6months or 26 weeks of which the payslips provided?

5. the type of employment (permanent, fixed-term contract or agency)
Permanent

Please advise if I am mistaking on any points mentioned above.
*****************************

Another question I have is if I am not sending my original passport with her application - do I have to send copies of all the pages of my passport including any blank pages? Does that need to be verified by someone like post office ?

I am looking forward to hear from you guys.

Your suggestions will be very helpful.

Please see the letter from employer below - is it good enough or I am missing any thing - the only thing is concerned to me is not mentioned of hours/week I work and the average gross income worked out doesn't make sense.

Please advise before I post my application

Any one there please?

I have another question though haven't got the reply for any mentioned above

Just noticed looking at the payslips that I had one day off sick in November last year and am entitled for company sick pay so was got paid for one day.

Do I need the employer to mention this in the letter?!

Please any suggestions will help.
