Payslip/P60 (Category A)

Hi all,
I applied my spouse last month and had my Biometrics May 12. So here i am waiting and feel so much anxiety waiting for decision.
I understand that it needs £1550 per month for Gross income to prove that the sponsor earn £18,600 per year and That's should be £9,300 for the whole 6 months, and the clearance officer will take the lowest payslip for the last 6 months. My question is what if the lowest payslip total is less than 1,550 or lts say its 1,400 That's a problem right? But my husband submitted P60 clearly state he earn £20,000 per year. Will they take the figures from P60 and conclude we meet the requirements. Im so stress about this any advice please 

If he is salaried and his lowest payslip is £1,400, his annual income for the visa will be calculated as:

£1,400 x 12 = £16,800

As this is less than £18,600, unfortunately, it means you won't qualify for the visa.

However, if he is non-salaried (paid by the hour) they will add up all the payslips from the 6 months, divide by 6 and multiply by 12 to get the total annual income.

The P60 amount is not relevant because he has to show the last 6 months of earnings have been £1,550 per month or more for salaried employment (or a total of £9,300 for non-salaried) and the P60 only shows total earnings for the last 12 months.

If you had applied using Category B and provided 12 months of payslips and bank statements showing the total earnings of £20,000 over the whole year, you would meet the requirements, but with Category A, salaried employment, only that £1,400 payslip will be considered.

The highest number on the payslip before any deductions (whether tax or a benefits).
