Topping up National Insurance: 3 steps
Step 1. Check your record
Step 2. Ignore the future pension centre.
The online tools will direct you to contact the future pension centre. The only method of contact is to telephone the future pension centre. It is unlikely they will pick up your call, it is more likely that the endless hold tones and sporadic connection failures upset you.
Step 3. Fill out and send a CF-83 form
Fill out and send the CF-83 form. This form will detail your periods of time working outside the UK, your employment details during and directly before your departure, and your current circumstance. If the CF-83 is accepted HMRC will reach out to you to give instructions on how to top up your missed years.
