Understanding UK State Pensions and National Insurance Contributions (NIC)

Pension and changes of address, who do I need to notify?

How to find pension plans from previous employers (even if they stopped opperating) and transfer pots to a current provider/NEST pension plan?
Thanks in advance for the answer

As I could not survive on my poor retirement paycheck within the US I have resettled to Russia several years ago looking for cheaper place to retire. However several months ago payments have been stopped. When I requested the Embassy in Warsaw, Poland, which manages the transactions they replied that because Central Bank of Russia has been sanctioned therefore payments became impossible. I know that Russia supplies the US with titanium along with some other materials and of course those shipments have always been paid. It means payments still possible when authorities want it. Moreover each Embassy has cashier desk where I could come getting cash. It is what I proposed in my communications with the Embassy, but they did not reply anymore. Neither Social Security nor Embassy in Moscow wanted to have any business with me. I am to old and weak to resettle again. They also defrauded me on three Economic Impact Payments that I was illegible for. I wrote to Biden in White House with no result of course. This is how the US government treats its own citizens. I can only go to the street begging in a foreign country. Judge yourself. The US is a country of fraudsters. Watch out the US. They are fraudsters.

Thank you for your useful content. What will happen if I have paid into 35 qualifying years to receive the full state pension, but I haven't reached my retirement age, which is 67?

My friend worked part-time and earned about £8,000 from June 2022 to April 2023. According to her payslip, no National Insurance (NI) contributions were taken. Does this mean she was still deemed to have made NIC contributions since she earned over £6,725?

The shortfall can come if you’ve been in a contracted out pension scheme. I’m still about 3-4 years short of my full state pension.

I worked online for an overseas company and paid overseas. My overseas employer has no relation with uk. Should I pay NI in UK?

I have made contribution for 40 years and I have the last 4 years as gap years because I stopped working at 60 for on e year then took a zero hour job and am still working
