If your annual family (Definition of family-father, mother & minor children below 18 years) income (excluding government salary and agricultural income) is more that Rs. 4.50 lakhs in all the last three years every yera, you are creamy layer. It means that if this annual income is less then Rs. 4.50 lakhs for any one of the three years you are a non-creamy layer.

For Central or State Government officers- If
(i) parents, either of whom is a direct Class I officer or
(ii) parents, both of whom are direct Class II officers or
(iii) parents of whom only the father is a direct Class II officer and he gets into Class I at the age of 40 or earlier

The creamy layer status of a candidate is determinded on the basis f the status of his parents and not on the basis of his own status or income or on the basis of status of income of his/her spouse

Therefore while dtermining the creamylayer status of a person, the status or the income of the candidate himself or of his/her spouse shall not be taken into account
