FAQs
What is a qualifying NI year?
A qualifying year is a tax year in which you paid (or were credited with) enough National Insurance contributions. You need earnings of at least £123/week.
Can I top up my State Pension?
Yes. You can pay voluntary Class 3 NI contributions to fill gaps. It can be very worthwhile — each extra year adds roughly £6.32/week to your pension.
When is the State Pension age?
The State Pension age is currently 66 for both men and women. It will rise to 67 between 2026 and 2028, and to 68 between 2044 and 2046.
What is the triple lock?
The triple lock guarantees the State Pension rises each April by the highest of inflation (CPI), average earnings growth, or 2.5%.
