Hello,

I’m looking for some guidance on the UK partner visa process and also how certain income elements like tronc are treated.

I’ve recently started a new role in hospitality( Senior Waiter in 5 Star hotel)with a base salary of £28,343 plus tronc paid through payroll (shown on payslips). I’m trying to understand how this is considered when calculating the financial requirement. (Manager mentioned salary can easily cross 29k with the tronc)

My partner and I have been in a genuine relationship for almost 2 years this December. She is currently living in student accommodation and I live in private accommodation, but we stay very close (about 10 minutes away) and I usually stay over most of the time.

We are planning to apply for the partner visa around April. I am currently on a Graduate Visa (expires May 2027).

We already have strong relationship evidence including chats, calls (voice/video), emails, financial transactions, travel together(tickets), photos, and more.

If anyone has experience with:
- whether tronc is counted as income for the financial requirement
- when is the best time to apply considering timing and employment history
- any common issues people faced with similar cases

I’d really appreciate any guidance.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

I recently got offered a hospitality role(Senior Waiter) in a 5 Star hotel, with a base salary slightly below the partner visa financial requirement(£28,343), but the manager mentioned that with tronc added through payroll, my yearly income would go above the threshold and would show directly on payslips.

Has anyone here successfully used tronc income for a spouse/partner visa application? Did UKVI accept it without issues if it was consistently shown on payslips and bank statements?

Would appreciate hearing from anyone with experience in hospitality or similar situations.

Guys, you won’t believe this. Oh my God, what do I even say now? I’m watching Dhurandhar 2 on Netflix, and it’s completely uncensored, full-on gaaliyan and graphic and extended content. Damnnn!!
