In case You Missed it! – There’s still time to benefit from social insurance contributions made by Irish citizens when working in the UK – but time is running out!
Step By Step Guide:
Step 1
You’ll need your National Insurance number and passport.
Ideally, use a biometric passport, as you’ll scan it with your phone to authenticate your identity. Login here

Step 2
With your National Insurance number and passport, visit the UK government website to check your state pension account. You’ll receive a Gateway ID, which you should keep safe. Download the Gov.uk ID Check app to verify your identity.
Using your Gateway ID, log in to gov.uk/checkstatepension to check your pension forecast. This will display your National Insurance record, how many years of contributions you have, and which years are missing.
Step 3
To buy back UK pension years, complete the CF83 application form, which is available in PDF format at Gov.uk NI38 form. Print off the CF83 form and send it to HMRC by registered post.
You can track your application progress by logging in to gov.uk/check-your-state-pension after at least two weeks using your Gateway ID and password.
