National Insurance Contributions
(asked on 14th June 2021) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 2 June to Question 1397 on National Insurance Contributions, if he will publish for each cell in each table a further breakdown of the data by five year age bands.
The tables below show a breakdown by five-year age bands of how qualifying years were built up for the tax years 2011/12 and 2018/19.
The line ‘No Full Qualifying Year’ refers to those individuals who may have had some contributions or credits recorded, but did not build a qualifying year in the respective years.
The line ‘NI Contributions and Credits’ indicates where a qualifying year includes some periods of contributions and some of credits within the year.
Please note - for 2011/12, the low numbers of qualifying years for women aged 60-64 is because the staged introduction of State Pension ages above 60 was just beginning at that time.
