Past Earnings

[methsiri]

Dear All,

I am in the process of applying for HSMP. I have some doubt about justifing my minimum income as follows

1. I usually get two bonuses within 12 month period. Those two come with two seperate slips. If I include bonuses there will be 14 slips within past 12 month period. Can I use bonuses as an income?

2. The balance salary is send to my bank account after deducting the Paye Tax and Employees Provident Fund from my basic salary. Do I need to use basic salary or the balance salary?

3. My company is sending subscription fees which is amount to 18% of my basic salary, to two government funds. I can recover those money with the interest when I retire or migrate. These amounts are shown in the pay slip. Can I use those as an income?

4. Can I use non cash benefits shown in the pay slip as an income?

Please advise

Kind Regards,

Methsiri

I also have the same case. i.e two bonuses in one year. I sent 14 slips to HSMP office, case is still underprocess.

And the general rule is (according to my understanding) that those income is eligible for HSMP on which income tax has been deducted and the income is earned from that profession in which u r highly skilled.

Plus this income shud also b present on ur income tax return.

Confirm it with senior members.
