Please refer to the screen shot of 'Your State Pension summary' from HMRC website.
This is of a British citizen who was working the UK government service job and then moved out of UK an year ago. They may return to UK in few years or not at all.
I hope the exact amount hidden do not matter.
Please could someone help if there is anything need to be done here to improve the pension benefits or not to loose any existing benefits.
Thank you in advance.

They could pay NI for the next 19 years.....unless they are happy with the figure shown in the first paragraph.#2 Saving for Christmas 2024 - £1 a day challenge. £325 of £3661

Do nothing to retain the existing benefits, what you see under the "up to April 2020" statement is what they will get subject to inflationary increases. To get the higher amount they will need to contribute for another 19 years. If they were working when they left the UK and continue to work in their new country they may be eligible to make class 2 voluntary contributions.Blotting out the details is a bit pointless as no one can see who it belongs to and seeing the figures may lead to a more tailored advice. The bit you didn't blank out gives more info on the person than the parts you did - the fact they were born 28th May 1980.1
