I currently work twenty hours, five a day over four.
I have some retrospective gaps in my state pension and will pay to fill them, I don't want to reduce my hours and find I am not quite paying enough and have them to fill as well.
I am paid £15 an hour.
Question being if I go down to 18 or indeed even 16 a week would I still pay enough NI to qualify for a full year from a pension credit point of view ? We can carry the loss of income.
TIA
