Just had my IPA form

I've had my IPA form through this morning and it said I was going to pay £271. I worked backwards from this to get the surplus of £410. The problem is i can't see how they got this figure as it should have been higher. Now, I'm thinking that perhaps they have not taken my new wage but my old one as the start figure even though I did make a note on the forms when I submitted them to tell them my new wage and told them again in the interview. If they have indeed taken the wrong figure, if I don't say anything will I get into trouble? Should I just leave it and see how it turns out? will they send another form confirming final details before I get the IPA applied? or should I submit my new figures muself now that I know my new rent/ council tax etc? bit worried in case i get in trouble if they don't have the correct figures and the IPA is actually lower than it should be.

scoot it could be possible that your amounts on your expenditure were low and the OR has upped them thus taking your surplus down.Official DFW NERD 189

just spoken to the OR. They had taken my old salary figure so the new IPA is £328. Better to let them know than get into trouble later0
