NI contribution refund

[mcamp999]

National Insurance is a tax which is taken from pay for the UK's health and social security system. Your payments are known as National Insurance contributions (NICs). Most people working in the UK need to pay this: there are a few exceptions (for example, if you are from an EEA country with a reciprical agreement with the UK and you continue to pay National Insurance in your home country). In the tax year from April 6th 2005 to April 5th 2006, the tax rate paid by workers was 0% for the first £94 per week, 11% on income up to £630 per week, and 1% on any income above £630 per week. The tax is paid each time you are paid (usually weekly or monthly). Unlike income tax, it does not matter how much you have earned in other pay periods, and the tax cannot be reclaimed (unless a mistake has been made).
