information on the minimum earnings threshold is available in the Tier 2 Policy Guidance.

Mention as below:-

Hope this is clear.

This is the correct one. The other one is from 2015.

However, you must meet the ILR salary requirement of £35k.

In the SET O application form, they have specifcially asked only for " A letter to certify that the employee is required for the forseeable future.

If you look at the Immigration rules 245HF. Requirements for indefinite leave to remain as a Tier 2 (General) Migrant or Tier 2 (Sportsperson) Migrant https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... sed-system

(ii) certify in writing:
(1) that he still requires the applicant for the employment in question for the foreseeable future,
(2) the gross annual salary paid by the Sponsor, and that this salary will be paid for the foreseeable future,

Question:
In this case which one should be believed. SET O form or the Immigration rule.

As per the SET O application form we dont need to have the employer to certify that the same salary will be paid in the future but as per the immigration rules, it does require.

Which one to take in to consideration. Please let me know your views.

Immigration Rules trump any form/guidance notes.

Your topics were merged by me, i.e. keep ALL your questions on the same application in ONE topic. A new topic for each question you have is not necessary.

Ok. Thanks.

Regarding the letter from the employer, do we need to add this sentence also? 2. (2) the gross annual salary paid by the Sponsor, and that this salary will be paid for the foreseeable future,

I have seen many post in immigration board, not many people have above sentence in their document. They generally, have the sentence which certify that they would require for the foreseeable future. So, It would be nice to know if it is required to that in letter or not.

Yes, I would advise to get as below:-

"I certify that his employment is on-going full-time permanent position, and he will be still required for the employment in question for the foreseeable future and this gross annual salary or higher will be paid for the foreseeable future"
