    depends if that figure includes his expenses for living away from home .... or is just pay after tax, NIC's and other deductions

    He should have had a payslip showing all the gross amounts and all the deductions.

    Has he not had this?

    Also depends on his tax code

    As the previous posters have said, it all depends on a number of assumptions (a big one being is the £2900 net salary for one month or could it be for 1.5 months, as its his first payment etc)

    But to give you a rough estimate, it looks like your hubby could be earning in the £50,000 pa range.

    Go to this site:

    http://www.tfpl.com/permanent_recruitment/candidates/pcalculator.cfm

    put £50,000 in the gross annual salary box and make sure Under 60 / Male / Married / 2005/06 boxes are selected (assuming that is correct). Hit the calculate button and you'll see that it shows a monthly net figure of £2,900.21.

    we are going through a divorce and therefore he wont tell me or show me his payslip.

    Ah, I see.

    Well, he'll still have to declare his income (his REAL income) on the Form E and a copy gets sent to you/your solicitor. So eventually .... you'll get to know.

    Do you need to know now for a specific reason or can you wait for the Form E?

    Good for you... can I be nosey and ask how did you find out he got £2,900 this month?
    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.
