i wonder if anyone can answer me this, if emma has paid national insurance for over 1 year and now dont earn enough to pay any, but she wants to matain paying, is it worth it and how long does she have to pay into it for to get a pension, i have been told the figure is just over £5 per week she has to pay, just wondering is it worth it,

You're probably better off googling the govt. site for latest accurate info Steve.
It's very comprehensive with advice.

Just make sure you leave her plenty of money when you eventually kick the bucket.
