Previous Earnings - 2 countries

Hi All,

Can someone please help me out to calculate the correct Banding and the points to be claimed.

I was in UK from May 07 - Jan 08 (9 months) and india from feb 08 - apr 08 (3 months). I have attested 12 months Indian Payslip for the above period and hence i was thinking to claim points under india band.. But however after reading the guidance carefully, i understand i can claim points only in UK country band - A, since i've lived and earned major part of the claim in UK. Please help me if the following calculations is right.

1) May 07 - Jan 08
UK Salary - 15000 GBP
Ind Salary - 405800 INR --> 5068 GBP (just multiplying by 0.0125)

Total - 20068 GBP --> (A)

2) Feb 08 - Apr 08
Ind Salary Only - 127000 INR --> 1587 GBP (just multiplying by 0.0125)
Applying Upliftment factor because it is earned while in India --> 1587 * 5.3 = 8416 GBP --> (B)

Adding (A) & (B) --> 28484 GBP (Approx)

Hence claiming 25 points under Band A (Country - UK)

Proofs:
1) Indian Salary Slips, FOrm 15, ITR-1 Proof, Bank statemnts
2) UK Allowance Slips, UK Banks Statements.

Your expertise and help on this will be much appreciated.

Regards

Appears correct to me. Make sure you submit both Form-16 and the ITR for Indian part of salary. Good luck!
