T2 visa minimum salary

[princesh]

Hi,

I am on a tier 2 sponsored visa and my SoC is 2134. I earn slightly higher than £40K. I buy some days off from my employer and that reduces my take-to-home salary. (1) What is the minimum salary that I shouldn't surpass to be able to have the ILR?

(2) Should I deduct my contribution to the pension and contribution to child vouchers?

(3) Does this minimum change year after year?

Thanks

for ILR requirement the minimum you should be earning is £35K and higher than SOC code

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration ... illed-work

you should be earning Experienced worker: £36,000 to qualify for ILR

This salary should be at the time of applying ILR.

You mention you buy some holidays that reduces your salary. Can you post how much salary has been reduced in last 6 months?

Thanks for your quick reply, @makky86.

My basic salary is 3,360.50 monthly.
- 96.77 holiday purchase (monthly)
- 243.00 child vouchers (monthly)
- 100.82 pension (monthly)
All of this is before tax. After tax my take-home is 2,258.92 monthly.

(1) So how to calculate how many days more I can buy? each day costs me £150 before tax.

you mentioned that " you should be earning Experienced worker: £36,000 to qualify for ILR " - (2) is it 36K each year or only on the year of the application?

(3) does the 36K go higher each year?

Thanks for your help

At the time of the application. You'd need to get the letter from emploer with your current salary and to prove that you'd need to submit 3 months payslips and bank statements.

The minimum salary is the GROSS salary before all deductions (tax, pension, etc). As you earn over 40k, you seem to be fine. It’s this sum that you should pay attention.

Thanks makky86 and Akorotaeva for your reply.

Does this mean that currently I can take any number of holidays? I am currently on my third year and my job is permanent.

Thanks
