From: Simon Laurent
Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,
Please provide all Standard Operating Procedures, calculation templates and other staff guidance as to how to calculate whether a Sponsor or Sponsors earn sufficient income to meet the thresholds for Parent Resident Visa sponsorship per Immigration Instructions F4.35.
This should include calculation formulae and/or algorithms for:
* Salaried employment
* Self-employment
* Other income
* A mix of salaried employment, self-employment and other income.
It should also traverse how time periods are dealt with and income apportioned owing to the different income thresholds during the periods set out at F4.35.5.1(b), and the need to determine eligibility in 2 out of the last 3 years before a Parent Expression of Interest is selected from the Pool.
Yours faithfully,
Simon Laurent
