Social Security Payments : Exemptions
It is my understanding that "proper" U.K. pensions , as received by qualifying E106/E121 holders are exempt from social security contributions ;
would that be correct ?
Are there any other receipts a retiree can legally benefit from , without having to pay social security contributions on ?
would that be correct ?

And although you do not have to pay contributions with a E121 you should still pay for top up insurance on a monthly basis it is not mandatory but if you do not then you could find yourself covering the cost of parts of some medical bills. For example the when i had a heart attack for some reason i had to pay for the ambulance journey between hospitals at the time we were on a E106 with no top up cover.
