I sent a payment to top up my national insurance record on the 25 February 2025 following my application by CF83 (letter of confirmation received with the years applicable in November 2024). However, my record states that the 11 years concerned are still not full. How long will it take for my record to be updated ? I have proof of payment from my bank. Many thanks.

I filled out my CF83 form a few weeks ago and have since received the shortfall letter outlining the class 2 and 3 rates and amounts to pay. Importantly, there were no bank details noted on the shortfall letter, but I see you have provided some already on this forum. My questions largely relates to what has been posted already : 1. Can I take the amounts to pay noted on this shortfall letter as being correct ? 2. Do I need to make two payments : one for class 2 amounts and another for class 3 ? 3. Can I pay it from my UK bank account rather than from that of my country of residence ? 4. Can I use the formula noted in your previous answers if paying by bank transfer ? I.e. "national insurance number followed by ‘IC’, surname then initial". Many thanks in advance.
