My Tier1 G application was refused. The refusal was based on the ground that i did not had enough points under past earnings. I had applied on 15 Jul 10 in VFS chennai
My past earnings period was from Jun-2009 to May-2010. I was deputed to germany for 20 days starting from 06-Jul-09 through my employer and had included the allowance. I split the past earning period into three in the covering letter as shown below (for ease of calculation)
01-Jun-09 to 05-Jul-09 => A INR - i applied uplift ratio 5.3
06-Jul-09 to 26-Jul-09 => B EUR - i applied uplift ratio 1
27-Jul-09 to 31-May-10 => C INR - i applied uplift ratio 5.3
The total equivalent earnings came to GBP 40,686.00. The ECO has mentioned i her comments that i cannot apply uplift ratio of 5.3 to my July-09 month's salary as i was in Germany and granted only 20 points under this attribute, thus refusing entry.
But my point is that t date of credit of the salary was 31-Jul-09, when i was in India already. I see the following lines in the guidance document P 132
1) Was i right in the above mentioned calculation? Is something wrong in my calculation or is the ECO wrong?The country in which the applicant has 132. physically undertaken the work, rather than his/her nationality, the currency payment is made in or the country in which payment is made, determines the income band against which we will assess the earnings.
2) Another point here is - the allowance in EUR was credited to Citi world money card (based out of India). Can this be of any use? (like can i convert EUR to INR and thenc alculate earnings?)
Can i apply for AR? Senior members please advice. This is very important and urgent.. please
