Any Tier-1 (General) new applicants??

[bsbs]

Hi Guys,

My aaplication details are:

Type of application : WP to Tier 1
Application Sent : 12/06/2008
Payment taken : 13/06/2008
Ref no dated : 13/06/2008
Ref number : Waiting PB308******/001
Status : Waiting
Stamped on : Waiting
Recevied on : Waiting

I have a small query. I have provided bank statements and p60 for tha fiscal year 07-08. In the first month of fiscal year (ie April 07) salary credited to my account was £250 less as the company recovered some loan amount from my salary. This means that there will be a difference of £250 in what was credited to my account (salary) and what is displayed in p60 for whole year. Although the total exceeds much more then what points I am claiming for, will that effect decision on my application? How much chance is there of it being rejected on this basis? Is there anything I can do? If it gets rejected how much I have to pay for reapplying and how long will it take?

Thanks in advance.

There is nothing to worry about as total salary exceeds the claimed points.

I think the total salary as per your payslips and the P60 should corroborate exactly. there shouldnt be any difference otherwise they do not accept it as a second evidence. some seniors members may be able to put some more light on that. if yours gross salary is same as that on the P60 you shouldnt have an issue but if its different it can be an issue.

Can anyone tell me what's the Fax number for sending the urgent treatment letter to UKBIA.

I have applied on 9th June 08 and received the PB on 11th June.

I agree with Neva. Unless u clarify it in ur cov letter, I don't think its acceptable. U might WANa send a letter clarifying the point

where should i send this letter to, I have got my salary slips , should i send them as well.I m a bit reluctant to do that as In the Reference number letter it is clearly mentioned that do not send any additional documents untill asked for.

[nevadawipes]

the other thing i was thinking of in raush's case is how come they can check and corroborate the gross salary earned in a year with the bank statements and P60 , it is very hard for them as the salary paid in to the bank is net and the one on P60 doesnt give you a monthly breakdown of gross salary paid and is very hard to corroborate. you should realy have sent the payslips and bank statements. you might wanna send them a cover letter explaining everything and rest will depent on the case worker. they might consider it

hi

i applied the Tier 1 on 12th May and got the ref no. dated 13th May. the application is switching from work permit since i got a new job.

i faxed an urgent treatment request on 13th june with the offer letter and been told it's been received and consiered.

however, i haven't got my docs back until today! i have to keep telling my new employer to delay my starting date!

one thing i'm worrying is that i handed P60 and payslip as my earning evidence. i got the Feb payslip missing, so i only have 11 payslips from April 2007 to March 2008.

does anybody think the missing Feb payslip cause the problem of the delay?

[nevadawipes]

HI jj627,

if one of your payslip is missing, i take it you must have claimed points for the gross salary for the 11months. in your P60 your gross salary is for the 12months. so that would mean your gross salary in your payslips and on P60 is different. they are very fussy about that as the 2 amounts should match exactly the one on p60 and gross salary total from payslips otherwise they dnt consider it as 2nd evidence. thats the problem. thats why they say in the guidance notes to try and refrain from using the Tax documents as 2nd evidence.

In the document http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... yguide.pdf

123. Paragraph 245AA of the immigration rules states
that we will only award points when an applicant
provides the specifi ed evidence that he/she meets
the requirements for this category. The specifi ed
documents are as follows:
1) Payslips: These should be either formal payslips
or on company headed paper. If payslips are not on
headed paper or the applicant receives all pay slips
online, he/she must authenticate the evidence by
asking the employer to sign and stamp a printout. If
the applicant provides payslips, they must cover the
whole period claimed (for example, if payslips are
produced monthly, the applicant must provide the
payslip for each month of the period claimed).

[jj627]

so am i going to get refused based on the one missing payslip?

there is total amount of Taxable pay summary on my company's payslip. therefore, the last payslip of the tax year (march 2008) would match exactly with the P60 total taxable pay.

i thought missing feb wouldn't be a problem. would it?

[nevadawipes]

HI jj627,

fair enough you you got the gross yearly salary mentioned in your march 2008 payslip but you havent claimed the points for the 12 months gross salary but 11 months and thats the problem. the gross salary you mentioned in the aplication form and claimed points for is not exactly the same as the gross total salary on the march 2008 payslip or Your P60. To cut this short the gross salary total you claimed the points for and the amount on P60 should match exactly.

Sorry for the confusion.

The period i claimed was from April 2007-March 2008. i provided 11 months payslip which covered April 2007-March 2008 but missing the Feb one. the other earning evidence i provided is P60 for the tax year of 2007-2008.

the total gross salary on P60 matched the Taxable Pay Summary on March's Payslip.

do you think i will get the visa or refused on the base of missing Feb payslip?

can i post HO the missing payslip now since i've ordered a new one from my exisitng employer?

its doent matter if the the total gross salary on P60 match the Taxable pay summary on march's payslip of the year 2007-08, it should match the amount you claimed points for, which according to my understaning in your case is 11months (missing the feb08 payslip). i cant say anything on the decision as it depends on the HO.

Hope this helps!

thanks a lot

Hi jj627,

You claimed for 12 months with 1 month missing payslip. Did you mention this in your covering letter ? I feel it is good to let them know if you have miss somthing and also mention that P60 amount match with March Taxable Pay.

If you think your case is taking longer because of missing payslip. You can fax/email the HO with scan payslip of Feb describing the problem.

the email address is: wpcustomers@ind.homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

As mentioned in my earlier posts the net salary in my account statements and the Net salary in P60 (which can be calculated as Gross - Tax deduction - NI contribution from P60) will be off by £250 as that was the loan amount deducted by my company in first month. Can anyone please advise me on what is the best approach for me now or where to email the breakup or post breakup/salary slips? Should I send to same address where I sent application (I believe thats where they take payments) or is there any other address? I need these details asap as my case might be taken up soon.

Note: Mine is WP to Tier1 within UK.

Thanks in advance

[baheri]

HI raush,

i am finding it bit hard to understand how come you can provide your bank statements and P60 as a proof for your evidence as the amounts on the 2 documents would not exactly corroborate. as per my understanding u cannot do that as bank statements show the net salary and P60 shows the gross salary earned in a year and not breakdown of the monthly gross payments made to you. some seniors members may wanna comment on this as per me, it doesnt sound right. they dont want to spend time in making calculations to derive your net salary from P60,which would be extremely hard to do anyways. You should have sent the payslips with bank statements.

Hope this helps

It is the *gross salary* amount that is taken into consideration, not the net salary. I don't think there is a reason for you to worry.

Should I send to same address where I sent application (I believe thats where they take payments) or is there any other address?

The address you send the application to is a payment handling center. *Do not* send additional documents there. If you feel you must send additional documentation, then contact the UKBA helpline to check where you can send the documents.

Hi,

As per rules you can send any two of the specified documents and as far as there is a way to calculate Net salary from P60 to match it with bank statements , they have to do that check and I am sure they must be having this calculation methods already available with them to deal with any two type of documents. My only worry is when the Net will be off by 250. Hope that makes sense.

Cheers
