  • RE: How to Pay Voluntary National Insurance Contributions from Abroad

    I received a letter dated 30-April-2024 confirming acceptance that I can pay Class 2 NICs while living abroad. I am however, unable to see the same data on the “payable gaps” page of my National Insurance record online. The online page incorrectly shows Class 3 NICs. Despite this, I have subsequently made five Class 2 NICs from my current account in the UK. I have no way to verify that these payments were received by HMRC. I would very much appreciate the website be updated to show: 1. Confirmation of my voluntary NIC amounts required to pay up the recoverable shortfall. 2. Confirmation of payments received to date, before I pay the remaining.
