An offer letter and a salary alert often show different figures because they answer different questions.
Budget with take-home pay
Base rent, transport, savings, and regular commitments on the amount you receive after deductions. Keep your payslip with the offer letter for easy comparison.
Ask for clarity
If a deduction changes, ask payroll for a written breakdown. Understanding your payslip makes it easier to plan each month.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best first step?
Start with the official source, the correct date, and the full context before you act or share the information.
Why does a written record help?
