After going on Gov.UK website to top up missing years I noticed that pre 2016 there was the same message”we are checking….you do not need to do anything “.Calling the helpline I am informed that pre 2016 cannot be done online and takes up to takes 6 weeks to calculate! When I said there was nothing on the website indicating this there was no real answer.The panic is rising as it takes it to the wire- April5th!! Has anyone got a way round this .Any pearls of wisdom greatly appreciated.
