I paid to fill the gaps in my pension due to not working while having children and now I read I could have got HRP payments. Can I do anything to get some money back?

There are NEVER any refunds for National Insurance Contributions.
Home Responsibilities Protection is actually very limited: it would only apply to complete financial years during which you were receiving Child Benefit for every single week. (I actually had three years during which I received Child Benefit for about 50 weeks, and I still had to pay for those entire years in order for them to count for my pension.)1 -
You may have had to pay to complete those years, but you shouldn't have had to pay the full years rate - just a partial payment to cover the few weeks that you didn't get the Child Benefits creditted.Voyager2002 said:(I actually had three years during which I received Child Benefit for about 50 weeks, and I still had to pay for those entire years in order for them to count for my pension.)0 -
