State pension commencement letter figure right but wrong.

Options
I received my letter today from Dept for Communities (NI) informing me of what i will be paid from november for  my state pension. It is based on my NI payments to date. I have paid my NI (self employed) for 24/25 with my self assessment in June 25 but my NI record hasn't been updated yet!

Will I need to contact the pensions people or will the commencement amount be updated automatically when the NI record is updated?

Thanks for any guidance.

    Shouldn't be any surprise. There'll be different departments and stages involved in the process.
