Key Post Step by step guide to applying for UK State Pension

No, not yet.
That form I referenced was to determine if I was eligible, I did the gov ID checks and then inputted my national insurance number and was told I was eligible. It listed all the gaps years then too.
 
A family member filled in the CF83 last year and was told they will have to pay Class 3 contributions for the 18 back years. They put the decision on the long finger but would like to pay the figure now. Have they only until the 5th April to find the money and make the payment or can they pay after the 5th April as the CF83 has already been processed? Thanks folks.
 
Can anyone confirm what the timeframe is for "immediately" in the Class 2 description "..have worked in the UK immediately before leaving"?

I worked until 30 Oct 2020 in UK and left on 6 Jan 2021.
 

Key Post - Deadline 5th April 2025

UPDATE : You have ONE week. Don't delay. If you have an NI number, fill in the CF83 and send by recorded delivery. If you can't find your NI number, take a day off work and drive to Newry / Enniskillen / Derry, and go in person to the office there. Bring all your ID stuff. UPDATE: worst case...

Hi, I worked in the UK for 4 years and then I was received job seekers allowance for a few months before moving back to Ireland. Could I still qualify? Thanks

I believe that this question is purely related to this specific issue :

"Between November 2017 and April 2019, HMRC’s guidance was incorrect. If you did not apply or your application was refused because of the incorrect guidance, you may be able to pay at the original rates. You can provide details if you think you may have been affected."
 
Yes or No to Question about "Telling us how HMRC error affected you" I left UK in 1996 with 3 years emplyment and have been working in Ireland since, just wondering if theres any advantage to ticking the box and claim I didnt apply 2017-2019 due to incorrect guidance
