How many times do they check your past when you go now???
If you want to pay NI yourself via DD then you can, that way you are also putting towards your pension.Keith Driscoll - Administrator

Is this what you are thinking of?

Won't help you if you are living in the Philippines.
But NI contributions and NHS are not linked anyway. If you move permanently back to the UK you are legally entitled to NHS services straightaway anyway.

On a simliar point. We live in Spain. My wife gets Spanish National Heath cover because she is my dependant (the UK pay around 4,000 euros a year for her cover and another £4,000 for mine). When I die my wife's cover will only continue for 12 months. After that she is 'on her own!' There is no automatic, non contributory, cover in Spain
Also, unless she is, I think over 59, as my widow, she will only get a one off payment of about £2,000, and then nothing.
