a doubt on previous earnings calculation

Post by ssuresh83 » Mon Mar 16, 2009 11:37 am

The following formula is used to compute the UK equivalent salary
UK Salary = Gross Salary INR * Oanda INR to GBP rate (as of 28-February-2009) * 5.3
Equivalent

The multiplier 5.3 is used because India falls under Band D countries. The multiplier is obtained from UK visa site http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk

UK Salary Equivalent = 6, 46,862 * 0.01372 * 5.3 = £47037.21

The resulting figure £ 47037.21 arrived belongs to the salary range of £40000+ as mentioned in the UK visa site http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk .Hence I have claimed 45 points under this section.

£40,000+ 45 points
£35,000 - £39,999 40 points
£32,000 - £34,999 35 points
£29,000 - £31,999 30 points
£26,000 - £28,999 25 points
£23,000 - £25,999 20 points
£20,000 - £22,999 15 points
£18,000 - £19,999 10 points
£16,000 - £17,999 5 points

is the above calculation right as i am applying outside uk, can i claim 45 points under previous earnings section
