Past Earnings in Multiple Countries

[daylebo5]

Hi I just want to confirm the below.
If during the 12 month I am considering for 'Past Earnings'; I was paid in Indian salary for 8 1/2 months and was on secondment abroad for the rest 3 1/2 months.
Hence in this case the Indian salary would be taken on pro-rata basis.
However would you have to take 9 months to calculate pro-rata for the india salary or will is be exactly 8 1/2 months ? (since for 1/2 month i was paid india salary while during the other 1/2, i got foreign salary)

Any ideas ?

thanks people for the replies...

rely,
If i prorata for the 8 months.. what would happen to the 9th month (i.e. where I get paid in two currencies..) i assume they would want me to include this in some salary...

In Tier 1 - General there is not pro rata on any type of Earnings. Please read Tier 1 guidance notes, page 10 paragraph 73.
You have to convert all your earnings in GBP and then multiply it with uplifting factor (for india it is 5.3) and add it up to get your salary for all currencies in which you have made your earnings.

Actually Para 66 to 144(of Tier 1 guidance notes) will help you a lot in doing these calculations.

(For HSMP case is different)
