Umbrella worker mortgage evidence

An umbrella payslip has an assignment rate, an employer margin, holiday pay and a taxable gross. Using the assignment rate as salary overstates the pay.

What this page will not do

  • A limited company you also run is a second file. Use the director page for that income.
  • Expenses paid through the umbrella need to match the rules the umbrella actually used.
  • It will not name a lender, a product, or an approval chance.

Questions

Which number is the salary?
Start from the taxable gross on the payslip. Do not start from the assignment rate.
Is an umbrella the same as a limited company?
No. The umbrella employs you. A company you control is the director file.

The matching service is free for you. Partner brokers pay MortgageConnector for introductions. If you ask for an introduction, the details you submit are shared with the selected partner. The broker is responsible for regulated advice. Check the firm on the FCA Register.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

These figures are illustrative.

An FCA-authorised broker can look at the actual income, credit and property. MortgageConnector introduces you. We do not choose the mortgage.
