Individual employees usually don’t receive a salary increase until July 1 or after but the paperwork is finalised in April/May. As to when employees become part of the process differs depending on the employer. Some companies tie pay reviews to performance reviews, which are usually carried out in June, while others do not.

Either way, there is no reason not to do some prep now towards a pay rise. Ask your manager how the process works or call your HR department. HR don’t have power over your pay fate but they should know the process.

Even if your immediate manager is in a different location, it is better to wait until you can discuss in a meeting instead of writing a pay rise request letter.
