Chalkie - start your own thread, mate.chalkie99 said:antjos1 said:If you applied on-line you would have an email sent to you on what you had put on the on-line application form.
I sent mine on-line 2 June and I got an email the same day.
As stated in my post I did not apply online, I completed the form and posted it.
The reason for this is that I do not have enough years on my record and because of that online applications are not possible.
I imagine that emails following online submissions are auto generated anyway.
Any other replies appreciated.
Don't jump onto other threads and then expect all subsequent replies to address your issue. Most will be a response to the OP's situation not yours.
It will also cause confusion for the OP.
It's easy to start a new thread - if you can't understand how to - then just ask.
If it's your thread you can throw in a comment such as 'Any other replies appreciated.' As it's someone else's thread that's (IMO) rather presumptuous.
You say - "I do not have enough years on my record" .
If you mean NI contributions - then this has nothing to do with PC.

Are you perhaps talking about the new State Pension, but have confused things by posting your question on a Pension Credit thread ?
I'm sure forumites will be able to offer more help if you start you own thread, and if you can us give full information in a clear manner.
