thanks for the answer,but I was talking about NI contributions,not tax;NI is the amount that goes into your pension.I tried to ask Kela but they didn't seem to know what NI contributions are

maybe it got lost in translation...

You would be equally shocked if you would know that not everyone in the UK knows what Kela is...

Every country has a completely different social security system, and NI is something that exists only in the UK and is therefore not known outside the UK.

And no, receiving Labour Market Subsidy does not increase your pension.

You get the "sosiaaliturvamaksu" docked thats the 4% or whatever for KELA contributions. Has that got f* all to do with pension - state pension maybe but thats worth f*all in any case. The "work pension" gets contributed to when you work.
