UK work exp:Is Onpost Pay advice valid ?

[priyam]

Hi



I am in UK from the a day I got my initial Tier 1 Visa and worked for offshore IT company (on deputation) and recently got a local Job (6 month) before.

I need to show 25 K more earning to claim 5 points for UK Experience, my query is :

Shall I consider my on-post pay advice paid in GBP (in travel currency account) by offshore employer within 12 month period, i am short of 1K £ to be eligible for 25 k fig.

** Read various post on forum but did not get matching scenario or closed one..

Please advice

Many thanks in advance

were you based outside UK for the period/amount you are trying to claim UK experience points for?

as the name suggests, UK experience points are awarded if the earnings have been made while being physically located in UK, no matter the currency of payment while abroad, it cannot be included to get UK experience points unfortunately

in other words, UK experience can be had only by being in UK

Thanks Sushdmehta n Manka10

Given that I was always worked in UK from the day I got my Tier 1 Visa and I would imagine that I can now claim 5 point considering my onpost pay advice

I don't know what an "on post pay advice" is, hence unable to comment.
My response was just an answer to Manka10's question.

This is company deputation paid.. in other word per diem or charges paid per day after deduction of tax..

Would you recommend this can be still considered
