RE: Filling NI gaps with 'credits' from working abroad
Hi N Goodall,
When you claim your UK State Pension with The Pension Service you would include details of your employment in other countries and they may be able to include these periods when they calculate your pension.
You may wish to call the International Pension Centre on 0191 2187777 and they will be able to help you further.
Thank you. -
RE: NI 10 years qualify
Hi leonia,
To obtain the minimum UK State Pension you need at least 10 qualifying tax years of National Insurance contributions.
The more qualifying tax years that you have the greater your UK State Pension entitlement will be.
If you are overseas and wish to pay voluntary contributions then details are given in our leaflet NI38 ‘Social Security Abroad’ which you may obtain here:
Social Security abroad: NI38
Thank you.

RE: Employer Didn’t Report PAYE/NI contributions
Hi Anabeme,
You have done the correct thing by sending HMRC copies of your P60’s/payslips.
The current timescale for the department who will deal with this for you is approximately 30 weeks.
They are currently dealing with post received on 20 January 2024.
If you wish to, you can contact your payroll department to ask if there is anything that they can do to rectify this for you.
Thank you.

RE: NI voluntary class 2 paid in May 2024, no update yet?
Hi EllieMay24 Douglas,
It may take up to 6 weeks for a payment of voluntary contributions to be reflected on your National Insurance account.
If it’s been more than 6 weeks, we would have suggested you call the National Insurance Helpline, but you have advised that you are not able to.
The only other way is to write to us at the following address:-
HM Revenue & Customs
PT Operations North East England

United Kingdom.
Thank you

RE: Full Pension on reaching 66 and 1 month
Hi Dolene,
May we suggest that you apply for a State Pension Forecast here:
Check your State Pension forecast
The Forecast will detail your current and future entitlement to a UK State Pension and will detail any voluntary National Insurance contributions that you may pay that might help improve your entitlement.
Your Personal Tax Account will only show any shortfalls of voluntary contributions at the class 3 rate.
If you decide to pay voluntary contributions after receiving the Forecast and wish to do so at the Class 2 rate then please contact HM Revenue & Customs and provide us with details of how you have been occupied.
Thank you.
