Teacher mortgage evidence

A teacher's contract may pay only in term time, or include an allowance that can be removed. The contract and the payslip answer different questions.

What this page will not do

  • A September start with one payslip is a short history.
  • Private tutoring cash is not part of the school salary unless it is declared and documented.
  • It will not name a lender, a product, or an approval chance.

Questions

Is a TLR always included?
Not by this site. Ask the broker whether the lender treats that allowance as dependable.
I am paid 12 months for term-time work. Which figure?
Bring the contract and the payslips. Do not convert them into a day rate yourself for the form.
