My friends have received their national insurance numbers even though they are three months from sixteen and my sixteenth birthday is next month. I was just wondering when I would get it if something went wrong or it just varies in time.

Hi,
You can find more guidance here:
Apply for a National Insurance number: Who can apply for a National Insurance number
You will need to check that your parent or guardian claimed child benefit for you if not you will need to apply for a National Insurance number online.
You should have received you NI number 3 months prior to your 16th birthday.
Thank you.
