Money expert Martin Lewis has shared a relatively unknown hack to help people boost their State Pension.
The Money Saving Expert has urged those aged between 45 and 70 to check if they are missing any National Insurance (NI) contributions from their State Pension, reports The Independent. If they are missing NI contributions, then a voluntary £800 should be added for each year left out.
Gaps in your contributions can be due to transitional arrangements that were put in place for a new State Pension, introduced in 2016. Martin has warned people to contribute quickly as they will be limited from April this year.
