Previous Earnig (Proof of NI)

[mrehanashraf]

I will claim earning point by using salary and dividends from my company. I pay PAYE and NI (Not Class 2, as I am not self employed).
Normally proof for earning will be:
salaray slips
dividdend vouchers
personal bank statements

As per following point of Tier 1 (General) of the Points Based System –
Policy Guidance (Verson 07/2013):

117. National Insurance contributions may be paid by quarterly bill or direct debit, or the applicant may have applied for a small earnings exception certificate. Applicants must provide one of the following documents, according to their individual circumstances.

i) If the applicant’s National Insurance is paid by quarterly bill: The applicant must provide the bill from the quarter immediately before the application. This must be an original document and not a copy.


Does this mean we have to provide proof of NI as well, that was not the case 2 years back when I had my extension?

If any one can shed some light on it?
