Salary for Workpermit holder

[littlerice]

A bit worried about the new rules stating: Tier 1 and Tier 2 migrants applying for settlement will need to meet the salary criteria that applied when they last extended their permission to stay.

Right now, 4 years into my 5-year work permit, my salary is barely above the salary stated on my original work permit, would it be a problem when I apply for ILR a year from now? Assuming the rule stated above covers WP holder.

Thanks

If you are a WP migrant, then rules / changes to rules concerning Tier 2 migrants do / will not affect you. Immigration rules for WP migrants (128-135) are different from those for Tier 2 migrants (245ZB-Z45ZH).

There is some change on UKBA website again http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... ual-limits

It now says Skilled and highly skilled migrants will need to meet the salary criteria that applied when they last extended their permission to stay. What was the salary criteria for the old Work permit? I can only see a salary mention on my work permit saying how much the company was paying me, but can we understand that WAS the criteria?
