- Applying for state pension,it asks the dates of any time spent living or working abroad.
- How does this affect the pension amount?
- I have a few years without enough contributions for a full pension
- I have had some years spent abroad, working and not working,are there limits to the periods before deductions are made?
- if i spent 3,or 9months abroad, would that count as a full year?

Have you checked your state pension forecast: https://www.gov.uk/check-state-pension
and also your personal tax account https://www.gov.uk/personal-tax-accountGoogling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!0
