It may be possible to make voluntary UK national insurance contributions to get you a full UK state pension.We both worked in London from June 1989 until June 1991.
My wife has over 800 PRSI contributions from 1992 until 2018 working part time.
During those years she had an 11 year break of no contributions while staying at home with the kids
Does my wife need to pay voluntary contributions to receive a Contributery Pension?
Were children under 12 the whole time?During those years she had an 11 year break of no contributions while staying at home with the kids
Class AWere those 800 contributions at PRSI Class A or Class D?
Yes they were under 12.Were children under 12 the whole time?
Did she receive credited contributions as a stay at home parent? This should have been automatic if she was in receipt of child benefit.
AFAIK - I don't think there are credits for the Homemaker's Scheme. Rather these years are "disregarded" for the purposes of calculating State Pension eligibility - under the "Average Contributions Approach".Did she receive credited contributions as a stay at home parent? This should have been automatic if she was in receipt of child benefit.
There is no credited contributions on the "Statement on Social Insurance Payed and or Credited" from the Revenue for those years with the children even though we were recieving children's allowance. The columns are blank for those years.

Bear in mind almost certainly better to make UK voluntary contributions too if HMRC will let you.She would also presumably have made approx 104 payments to the UK NIS which would be reckonable here.
