Smokie as per the details in my opening post I already have 42 years NI but the govt still tell me that I can add more. I also had a memory that 35 years was the max but this must refers to something else. I wish I had asked on the call where 35 years came in.
Also my initial pension forecast downloaded this week was £156.55 but with a note that I needed to “continue” NI contributions to meet this figure. As I was not paying NI “continuing” just means their figure assumes I am paying NI for this year. The forecast without current year was £5 less. This tallies with the £5 a week increase available for added years.
It’s confusing and I won’t be sure until January but the helpdesks had all my details inc 42 years and told me I could add the 4 years I am paying for.
