Dear Sir/Madam, I have 8 qualifying years on my NI records for the period of self employment during my years in the UK before I moved to Singapore. I have been living in Singapore for 9 years and have been self employed the whole time. I have filled in a CF83 form a few months ago and I received a reply for paying Class 2 NIC to fill the gaps in my NIC records. May I know by paying towards the Class 2 NIC, Will I be getting the qualifying years towards state pension? Thank you
