Contract type: PAYE
I'm confused - PAYE is not a type of contract, it's the method by which he pays income tax and National Insurance (as opposed to filing taxes each year)
The contract type should be along the lines of: permanent, temporary, full-time, part-time, fixed-term contract etc.
Can we apply using cat b still? I read the appendix fm 1.7 and its soo confusing.
You have no choice but to apply under Category B.
You will not qualify under Category A until he has been at his new job for at least 6 months AND you have 6 full months of payslips and bank statements from the new job.
And since his visa expires in a couple of weeks, you don't have time to qualify under Category A.
For Category B, you have to meet two requirements:
1) He has a job paying at least £18,600 per year (before tax), but he has not been with his current employer for 6 months yet
AND
2) Between you, you have earned at least £18,600 before tax in total over the last 12 months
So, you have to provide:
- his new job contract
- the letter from his current employer
- 12 full months of original payslips from any and all jobs he and/or you have held in the last 12 months
- 12 full months of original bank statements showing the deposit of every single payslip you are providing
If he has any (correct) payslips from his new job at the time of applying, then you should include those too, along with the bank statement showing the deposit of the payslip(s).
