To all you helpfull moderators and senior members,
I applied for a permanent national insurance number at the beginning of this year. After much waiting, I finally received it at the end of April this year. Prior to this I used a temporary number (TN dd/mm/yy M). I applied for my ILR, and I got that with no problems in May. I thought I'll check with the Inland revenue to see that all my Tax records and NI contributions are showing up against my new permanent NI number. To my utter dismay, there is absolutely nothing showing up against my new permanent NI number! I'm not sure if I should panic, as I need all my details in order for the past 8 years, as I'll be applying for naturilisation next May, after sitting "Knowledge of life in UK" test. The person I spoke to at the tax office told me that the NI office will eventually send through all my details, but he can't say when. He suggested that I write a letter to IR customer services to get my employment record, and to supply them with all my previous addresses as well. I did that ASAP, and am still awaiting a response from them (I only posted it a week ago) I've checked with my new company's accounts department, and they've been using my new NI number since April. My question to you is, should I leave it up to NI officials to eventually send through my details, or should I chase them up? When I receive my P60 for this financial year, should that be sufficient evidence that the NCS could go by? Or do they want every single P60 of mine, as my tax details are not up to date on the main IR database, as nothing is traceable under my current NI number. I know it is early days yet, but I would appreciate a response. Thank's to all of you in anticipation.
