To be eligible for any state pension at all one needs 10 qualifying years on their National Insurance record.

Under the new state pension, which is applicable for men born on or after 6 April 1951 and women born on or after 6 April 1953, one will need 35 qualifying years.

Those within the right age range for the new state pension but have between 10 and 35 qualifying years will only receive a portion of the new state pension.

This was inevitable and the reason I've shoved every spare penny into Livret As .

Surely this is only fair, why if you have chosen to work and be taxed abroad should you be entitled to UK pension rights having not contributed ?


You think this bit is not fair then?


Anyone who has been living and working in Australia before 1 March 2001 will still be able to count their time toward their UK state pension.”


Anyway, I only posted a link someone sent me by watts app🤷‍♂️, I have no opinion either way, just thought some might be interested
