Thanks for the reply. I have also heard this interpretation of Category A and I quote the wording in the Annex FM at 5.3.1:Franko wrote:My understanding is they will take your minimum earning month of any of the previous 6 months and use this for your income calculation. I belive if you work for 6 months give this job up prior to applying then you may have problems as you no longer have the job your income for the previous 6 months was based on.
This aspect of your employment contract is likely to introduce complexities of an adverse nature. Your immediate concern is that they will examine your contract, P60, and conclude that your income is unsubstantiated, and then IMPUTE a gross annual income according to the formulae they have been given.Chucunchaca wrote:I am employed on a nil-earnings contract which in effect means I only work overtime.
Thanks, and agree I have problems substantiating income on their terms. Having thought about it, I am not really a salaried employee, although contractually an employee nonetheless. My own opinion is that the rules should allow for treatment of those in a position such as myself under Category F. My problem here, is I would have to wait until April next to lodge the Application:transpondia-2011 wrote:This aspect of your employment contract is likely to introduce complexities of an adverse nature.

I like 'Franko's' interpretation of the formula and can only add that the minimum amount he refers to is taken from the bank statement unless it can be substantiated elsewhere. And for most people this is a *NET* amount and UKBA will not use an adjustment to gross it up.
Thanks for your opinion and agreed. It's just a matter of ensuring that the time I spend proving an income is not lost by an overly strict interpretation of the rules. At the moment my family can only apply to join me on a 6 month visitor's visa and I am not prepared to be separated from them.asim72 wrote:Best way in my opinion would be you arrive in UK, work for 6 months, get all the documents together and then your wife applies for spouse visa from colombia.
