We want to apply for an unmarried partner visa in September.

I am a sponsor returning to the UK, as we both live in Bangkok.

Do I have to have, as I understand ANNEX B to state:

1. A firm job offer to commence work within 3 months

AND

2. Salaried income for the 6 months prior to POA being equal to or greater than 18,600 GBP per annum gross.

or just number 1.?

as the update also states:

4. Permitted sources for meeting the financial requirement

Income from employment or self-employment of the partner and/or the applicant if or
once they are in the UK with permission to work. (This means that the applicant’s
earnings from employment or self-employment are excluded at the entry clearance
stage. There is also scope for the applicant’s partner, if they have been working
overseas, to count the income from a confirmed job offer in the UK).
My monthly income is always different as I am not on salary but get paid hourly. It comes to more than 18,600 per annum though.

Will evidence of this be sufficient if I need to meet 1. and 2.?
