in the recent newsletter it explains Aged 40 to 73? Urgently consider buying national insurance years You may be able to turn £800 into £5,500 in your state pension.

I was born in the UK and lived there until i graduated university. From the age of 17 - 22 i worked in the uk while studying. However i havent resided in the UK for a long time.

As i am still a UK citizen can i avail of buying 
national insurance and claim some at retirement?
