NI Question

#207520

Postby Fluke » March 13th, 2019, 8:40 pm

If you earn slightly under the NI secondary threshold of £8,632 (for 2019-20) the government credits you with a full years NI contributions (for state pension purposes), but if you earn slightly more, lets say £10,000, you need to pay NI at 12% on the difference (£1,368) which works out at £164. Once you start paying NI is there a minimum you need to pay, and therefore earn, in order to get a full years contributions? I can't find anything about this on the gov website but I seem to remember reading something about it somewhere.

The threshold you are looking for is the Lower Earnings Limit. Not the Primary Threshold!
