Claims for Specified Adult Childcare can be backdated to April 6, 2011.
Older people providing care during term-time or school holidays for children under the age of 12 may be able to boost State Pension payments by more than £6,000 over a typical 20-year retirement period by claiming a National Insurance perk from HM Revenue and Customs . A single extra National Insurance credit currently adds around £303-a-year on to the full, New State Pension .
However, if the grandparent’s also have a son and provide care for their daughter’s child and their son’s child, there are likely to be two Child Benefit recipients and therefore, two credits are available for transfer. If no one has claimed Child Benefit for the child there is no attached National Insurance credit to transfer and credits cannot be awarded.
