Subj: Request for salary increment

Dear Mr [surname],

I have been working for [ABC Company] since 1992 as a Network/IT Support Engineer,and during this period I have discharged my duties to the best of my abilities. Still, my basic salary is 3,850, and I have not received any increment.

As you are aware, my wife (Gaseel Kila) is a kidney patient on dialysis, and my children are in higher grades now, so my financial burdens have increased considerably; therefore I would like to ask you to consider my case for a salary increment, which I sorely need.

Thank you very much for your consideration. I am looking forward to a favorable response from you.

Yours sincerely,
