    Niv - are you on the oldstyle loans (where you pay direct, not where deducted from your pay)? if so those are written off at 50.
    For income contingent loans around that time (for people who started studying in 98) its 65.
    A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give
    or "It costs nowt to be nice"

    ok, so just to be clear, my girlfriends NI contributions have been taken care of, even though she has not worked for 10 years?

    Yes - so long as she is bringing up child(ren) and receiving child benefit. You might want to visit the HMRC website to be sure, though.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.
