Government Gateway account

This may be a dumb question but here goes. I currently have a Government Gateway account to handle corporation tax return, VAT, statutory reporting, so everything related to my company. I wish to get a state pension projection so would I need to set up another Gateway account for this as it is a personal matter, not a corporate one ? I currently pay personal tax by bank transfer so have never really considered whether I would need a separate account or not until now.

i am dull enough to know the answer , you just Google something like state pension, how much will I get and the right .gov page appears and then you use your Gateway number to access this.

I can never find the page I want from actually being on the .gov site, so Google what I need

Thanks User. I can't seem to access the pension projections info via my current Govt Gateway account so I'm guessing I need to set up a personal one. I just wondered if anyone had done the same thing.

I'm a company director. I have two logins - one for my company (used for corporation tax, EU sales lists etc) and the other is for personal matters such as my National Insurance and self assessment taxes.

Not totally sure but agree with PP I believe you need two separate accounts - I was the other way round and already had personal and needed company, and had to set up a separate one.

Thanks everyone, that's really helpful. I'm sure there is a 27 stage verification/codes/letters in the post so I had better make a start on it now 😂
