If a customer makes a payment of voluntary National Insurance Contributions, the payment will automatically allocate into their National Insurance record when the money is cleared by HMRC\u2019s banking system. It normally takes a day to then be visible for the customer to view. However, this could take up to 8 week if there is any kind of discrepancy that causes a rejection that requires further investigation.<\/p> <\/p>"}
