Hi, I’m about to top up my national insurance contributions, I have been given an 18 digit code/reference. Will this be the same code I use each time I pay, or do I need to call and get a new code each time? TIA

No, because is it bespoke to the amount you are paying each time.

Yes you need a new code each time.PixiePom said:, or do I need to call and get a new code each time? TIA
Although I think some people were saying there's now an online top-up system, so if you're only paying for the years it wants to give you, you could use that? It's not very smart yet, and doesn't let you choose specific years.

Just paid for a year missing for my wife. Voluntary class 3, only option was for the least expensive. All went through reasonably painlessly and already showing on her records within a week.1

I requested a PIN code in July to top up the year 2014 but I didn't use it. Can I still use it now?

If you are paying 2014 then yes.1

"Can I still use it now?" was the question. The answer is "If you are paying 2014 then yes." If you are seeking to pay any other year then you would need a new code.1
