Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I am at the point where I will be applying for my small UK State Pension. I have looked at the application, and since I left the UK in 1982 have little records of date and times that I worked for UK companies. I do remember some names from an old CV I have.
It is not much, only about 5000 Pounds a year, but hey, I am entitled to it.
I anticipate it being a big ordeal (The Application Process). Everything has to be done by mail for the most part. In anticipation I am intending to apply for it a year before I actually want it. I actually qualified for 2 years ago, but because of ACA subsidies for DW decided to wait. I have my National Insurance Number and other key pieces of info, so they know who I am, how much I paid in, and for how long.
I am curious if any folks have done the same. Thanks in Advance to input.
