A full National Insurance Contributions record is required to maximise you entitlement to full State Benefits, including your State Pension. It is possible to check your National Insurance record online to see:
- what you’ve paid, up to the start of the current tax year (6 April 2018)
- any National Insurance credits you’ve received
- if gaps in contributions or credits mean some years don’t count towards your State Pension (they aren’t ‘qualifying years’)
- if you can pay voluntary contributions to fill any gaps and how much this will cost
