DANSP35100 | Notices of decision: Wording of National Insurance contributions paid decisions: Introduction

DANSP17100 provides information about the legislation that allows decisions to be made about the National Insurance contributions (NIC) a person has paid. It also explains the type of cases where you may be required to issue NIC paid decisions, for example, where HMRC considers that a person has not paid all the NIC they are liable to pay but liability is disputed.

All of the examples below apply the legislative requirements and general principles described in DANSP29200 and DANSP29300 and would be included in any notice of decision on NIC liability, see DANSP30700.
