Voluntary Contributions not appearing in my online record

Hi In late March 2024 I paid 7 years voluntary NI contributions. They have not shown up on my record. I understand there is a delay but this seems extreme. Is this normal - when should I be concerned ? Your call line is difficult with waits over 30 mins and then getting cut off. Peter

Hi,
It’s currently taking about 22 weeks from an individual making their payment of voluntary National Insurance contributions to it being recorded on their Personal Tax Account so your payment should be recorded soon.  
If you’d like to make sure that we do have your payment then you are welcome to call our National Insurance Helpline on 0300 200 3500 (from the UK) or +44 191 203 7010 (from overseas).
Thank you.
