Quote from: dom on August 01, 2024, 09:59:23 PMIve just found out that if I pay HMRC  the national insurance contribution for each year that I've lived in Ireland I can get the UK pension for those years. Bit of a no brainer in terms of return so I've got that process underway.

Obviously if I die in the next 8 years it will have been a waste but I think its a risk worth taking!
This might help in making shortfall contributions.

Thanks for that - I've actually got a professional to sort it out - I think partly due to reading your post!

Somehow I feel a list of chores being built up rapidly.

Just realised I'm now into single figures for working days left..  3 days each in the next three weeks.. a nice but slightly odd feeling if I'm honest

There are so many fish puns that this could go on for a while, but eventually the thread will begin to flounder.
