Hi all and hoping you can put my worried mind at rest, am I correct that going off this I will get my full state pension regardless if I continue to pay NI or not, I'm just unsure about the cope to be fair I don't even know what that is. Thanks in advance

  • You are missing the key information.

    What is the text underneath the green box?
  • what you have posted looks like you have paid full NI contributions and will get the full state pension in 2035. The contracted out part is where you contracted out of SERPS (you may not remember this?) so therefore you should have a private pension linked to this

    Whilst you are at it I would track this down to see how much is in there when you retire / or you may be able to claim it now depend g on the private pension rules 
  • And I suspect you are really disclosing a bit too much personal information.

    Unfortunately that conclusion cannot be made from the limited information provided, that green box on its own only means that the full amount is achievable by retirement date.

    The important bit is what is written below the first image, what is printed after "Is not a guarantee and is based on the current law"
    But everyone with 30 pre 2016 years and receiving full years post 2016 cannot fail to reach the full amount by April 2025, simple maths.

    Click the 3 dots (•••) in the top right corner of your post.

    Although I don't know if you can edit a screenshot.  But you can probably delete the one with your name and DOB info.
