*Please note: For additional duty hours, flight allowance, NHS bank (to be keyed under nursing bank) or shift allowance we will average the last 3 months payslips (last 6 where paid fortnightly or last 12 where paid weekly). Provided that each payment is within 10% of the average we will allow 100% of the income, otherwise we will allow 60%. Example - Month 1 £95, Month 2 £100, Month 3 £105. Total income £300, average £100pm. As each payment is between £90 (10% below average) and £110 (10% above average) we can treat as guaranteed. If one of the payments was below £90 or above £110 we would treat as non guaranteed even if the total income across the 3 months was the same. |
