National Insurance
Like a rainy day, National Insurance fails to inspire most. But regardless of this it is important to make sure your contributions are maintained, so that you’ll be eligible for a state pension, and any state benefits. If you’re definitely going away for less than a year then the issue is not of too much relevance provided that you’ve contributed for 90% of your working life. On the other hand, if you intend to be away for more than a year its best to make voluntary contributions while you’re away, to make sure you are covered. For more detailed information on national insurance voluntary contributions check out www.direct.gov.uk and follow the links to National Insurance.
