Does the £22,000 income limit include overtime and one-off payments?
Yes, the £22,000 per annum income limit is determined by using a snapshot of income at the time the learner makes their application. This will be based on an average of the 3 pay slips and multiplied up accordingly to create an annualised figure. However, where, on this basis, the learner’s initial income level is above the £22,000 limit and subsequently drops below £22,000 per annum, the learner can ask for a re-assessment of their ILA Scotland application.
