    Hi,

    I'm currently applying for a mortgage.

    I see from my revenue that my gross pay is X and my pay for income tax is Y.

    Gross pay is the higher figure.

    What figure would I be using as my salary figure?

    5K in the difference.

    Thanks

    Usually this relates to non-taxable deductions from your gross pay (pension contribution most likely). They’ll use the higher gross pay figure for the purposes of a mortgage calculation.

    That's correct re the mortgage application but assume that's a typo saying pension is a non-taxable deduction? Because the difference here is the higher amount is subject to USC and lower amount subject to income tax most likely due to pension contributions
