Money Saving Expert founder Martin Lewis advises pensioners to keep a letter from HMRC regarding their state pension entitlement, as it could result in them being owed thousands of pounds.
MONEY Saving Expert founder Martin Lewis returned to ITV to host the Martin Lewis Money Show in which he sent a warning to pensioners.
The Money Saving Expert explained how HMRC has started writing to 100,000s of people – mostly women – who may be missing out on their full state pension entitlement due to an error in their national insurance records. They could be owed thousands as a result, Lewis explained.Specifically, this affects those who took time off work to care for family between 1978 and 2010, as they may be missing what's known as"home responsibilities protection" .
You can check a list of recent letters sent by HMRC at Gov. uk. You can also contact HMRC directly by calling 0300 200 3500 if you're still unsure.If you've got the letter, check you're eligible to boost your state pension If you're still years off state pension age, it's best to hold off applying for the time being and wait for HMRC to contact you – otherwise, the process could slow down for everyone. In the meantime, if you've changed address, make sure you let HMRC know.We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories.
