HSBC UK has also made changes to its variable pay policy, enabling income from commission and overtime, in addition to quarterly, half-yearly or annual bonus payments to be used to support mortgage affordability. The most recent payment must have been received in 2021.
Michelle Andrews, HSBC UK’s Head of Buying a Home, said: “We are all looking forward to normality returning, and the inclusion of overtime, commission and bonuses to support a mortgage application is one bit of normality that will be welcomed by many looking to move onto or up the property ladder.”
