<p>The Department for Work and Pensions is responsible for the allocation of National
Insurance Numbers (NINos) to adults in the UK. The NINo is an administrative reference
number, unique to each individual and used by both DWP and HMRC to link an individual
to their National Insurance Contributions and record the payment of Social Security
Benefits.</p><p> </p><p>Possession of a National Insurance number does not demonstrate
that an individual has a right to work in the UK, this is determined by Home Office
legislation. A list of acceptable documents that enables an individual to demonstrate
they have the right work is set out in the Employers Guide to Right to Work Checks.</p><p>
