This forum is being really helpful to UK visa aspirants. Great job everyone.
I have a quick question regarding per diem,
Apart from regular salary, I get per diem every month from my company which is not taxable. Since this per diem is given by the company for the expenses in connection with work and is not taxable, I am not including this amount to claim points for previous earnings. They do appear in my bank statement along with the regular earnings with similar name 'company name-deposit pay date'. In order to avoid confusion, I would be sending the per diem statements and mention in the cover letter stating them as additional evidence.
As they are online per diem statements, do I have to get them signed & stamped by my employer or can I send them as it is (as they are not part of earnings for which I am claiming points for)?
Thanks in advance.
Therefore cannot be included in salary! It is not money that you earn as *income* but an allowance for *expense* incurred (or that will be incurred at a later date) for doing company work e.g. - travel, subsitance etc.vittuk wrote:Since this per diem is given by the company for the expenses in connection with work
