I got asked the same questions and left out my 2 years in the USA.
All they want to know for is to alert you to claiming any pensions you are due from other countries too.
In my case I was an assignee for IBM and we worked under a tax-treaty where we continued to pay full NI and hypothetical tax on our full UK earnings (as if we had never left the UK at all), so I didn't deem it at all relevant.
My state pension kicks in 29th December. :D £174.47/week for sitting on my duff. Can't be bad. :)

Thanks for this.
I have a funny feeling that during my stay in Frogland there may have been some sort of reciprocal arrangement too.
Dunno, for sure.
I'll find out soon enough if I try and claim anything!
@£174 you will be doing bettere than me as I've been told to expect not much more than £100, due to being "contracted out" into the Teacher's Pension scheme.:rolleyes: But I will be prepared to argue as I just dug out the Teacher's Pensions booklet given to me years ago and it seems to contradict this, at least in part.
We'll see!
Hope the extra dosh isn't all wiped out by the cr@p due to hit us 2 days after yours comes on line!;)

Must say I likes a series. Like the one in @Hippo post 32676. The first landy I ever drove was a series 3 SW 6 cyl petrol. Fresh from a garage engine rebuild in 1979 and full loaded with timber for a 150 mile trip to a site I was working on. Thought it drove like a gutless dog (I didn't know they were all like that, my boss gave the garage a rocket for not doing the rebuild proper like). In reality it was probably better than most. It was handed to a bricky gang who used it for a 100 mile daily round trip to get them to and from site, and to nick loads of sand and bricks. It earned its keep.

I was contracted out of the state system for 20++ years when I enrolled in the company pension scheme. When I was invited to apply for the state pension I got the full monty. Even though I had odd years off semi retired, the odd few months I worked in those off-years counted. I don't know how they worked out I was due a full state pension, which I wasn't expecting, but I'm not gonna ask :oops:

Had a good day today. Got some decorating prep work done. Then watched my team on tinterweb kicking a ball round an empty stadium and winning 4 nil whilst scoffing a choccy noringe and drinking Chivas Regal. Followed by a curry cooked by SWMBO. It don't get better than this :):):)

+1 for the chocolate orange - hope it weren’t a knock off brand
