Dear All,

Hope we are keeping well.

Background;

- Say, I am on SSP since last 2 months and will be applying for ILR now, on the basis of Tier 1 (G).

- In this case, I know applicants have to claim points for Gross earnings for any 12 months out of last 15 months.

Question about claiming points for Earnings;

(1)- Since, I am on SSP -can I still claim gross earnings/points for these 2 months?

Thanks very much for your help.

You claim for any consecutive 12 months in the last 15.

Hi Victoria,

Thanks for your reply.

Like I said, I am aware that it has to be any consecutive 12 months out of 15 months.

In my case, for my earnings to get me required points, I will need to claim points for these last 2 months as my salary was Gross Pay is higher.

This is the reason I asked that "Can I claim points for Gross earnings in these 2 months when I was on SSP"?

I would appreciate clarification in this matter.

Thanks & Regards

I am not sure what further clarification is needed.

Hi Victoria,

Perhaps, I am confused.

Apologies, so are you saying that being on SSP does not matter and that I can claim points for these 2 months I have been on SSP in?

Thanking you in advance.
