What this means for you
Long planning horizon, time to bank qualifying years. The headline 2026/27 figure quoted above assumes you have the full 35 qualifying years and were never contracted out1.
You have around 11 years before SPA, which is enough time to add qualifying years through paid NI or Class 3 voluntary contributions.2
