Hi, I need some advice. I worked in Channel Islands 1992 for several years and was advised by HMRC I would be eligible for UK pension to buy back years/gaps.
I tried completing form online and JY number could not be input because I glitch in systems . I was strongly advised to get a National Insurance Number from the UK and give an explanatory letter to explain worked in Channel Islands and give contribution history.
I never had a gap in employment and returned to work in Ireland . After 9 month wait, following all the advice given by HMRC I was advised I needed to earn stamps pre 1975 jersey has reciprocal agreements with UK and Ireland
I have a option to appeal myself or through a third party - it’s expensive but worth it if successful. Again I was told I’d a very good case. Prior to submitting application to HMRC there was never a mention of pre 1975 plus I was told HOW to get around glitch in system re social security numbers
