Post by nervoustimes » Sat May 10, 2008 10:34 am

Hi All,

I am claiming the Indian salry for the first two months

for the firast two months --total gross -60000 rs(app)*0.01260(excange rate sas per oanda) = XXX pounds

for the remaining 10 months --total gross --25000 pounds

Hi,

Please use the online tool. Once you give them the conversion rate it would uplift the salary for you.

In you case -

First 2 months = 60000 * 0.01260 = 756 GBP (* 5.3 (the tool would take care of this)) = 4006.8 (Equivalent UK earnings)

Earnings = 25000

----------------------------

Total = 25000 + 4006.8 = 29006.8
You have just made it into 30 points!
All the best

Dear Nervous
Simply u have to prove and convince them abt the prorata basis, that y they should consider your 10 months salary. You have to provide them previous 2 months salary slips+10 months salary slips. but they will consider your 10 months x 12 /10 as a elongated period. so u have to provide calculation for 10 months that is already in Pounds. By the this is the criteria for Old HSMP I hope it wud be the same for TIER 1.

Regards,

Shani

Hi collshani,

HSMP and Tier1 rules are not the same for prev earnings. In t1 the pro rata calculations are not considered under any circumstances. Please read the guidance notes.

nervoustimes, you will have to show both the earnings. convert INR into GBP using conversion rate from oanda and then use the uplift ratio. add this to GBP earnings and show the total. Please use the online tool as well.

I endorse above comments. T1 does not support Pro rata, as per guidelines uplift and conversion should be used. Country band should be choosen where one lived/worked longer.

Good luck!.
