Paying extra NI stamps

Given an NI contribution record which is unlikely ever to reach 35 qualifying years (but is over the minumum 10), does anyone here know if it is still worthwhile making voluntary contributions?

Hi Steve,

You will find some comments in the post, Contribute or not? Started by Patrick Bell last Friday and I suggest you call DWP for their advice on your situation.

Yes - what a coincidence.
