Your National Insurance record can be checked online to see what contributions and credits you have built up and whether you have any gaps that may affect your State Pension.
The record shows how much National Insurance you have paid up to the start of the current tax year, as well as any National Insurance credits you have received. It also highlights whether any years do not count as qualifying years for your State Pension.
By reviewing your record, you can see if paying voluntary contributions could help fill gaps and improve your State Pension entitlement. The service also provides a State Pension forecast and shows how this may change if you choose to make additional payments, including whether you can pay online and how much it may cost.
To access the service, you need to sign in or create a Government Gateway or GOV.UK One login. You may be asked to verify your identity using photo ID such as a passport or driving licence.
You can also request a printed National Insurance statement online, by phone or by post, although you cannot request details for the current or previous tax year.
