My husband moved from the Uk (England) to Canada in 1966. He did his electrical apprenticeship in the UK and worked for a while. Would he have a NIN? If he does, is it possible to find it now?

Yes he does....

Thank you.

I found a National Savings Certificate book with an ID number starting with RZ. Is that the same/old name for the current NIN?

No idea.....have you tried the link I sent you?

My NI starts with YZ
If the number you have consists of two letters 6 numbers then one letter then it probably is his NI number

Yes I did follow the link but couldn’t get past the post code. We live in Ontario, Canada but it requires a UKpost code. I tried the code for his parents house as he lived at home before moving to Canada but that was rejected as well.

This just has two letters followed by five numbers so not right.

Mine starts with YZ too.....

God.... what a useless system..... why don't UK Government systems allow for Brits who have moved overseas to access the systems. It's like they have not knowledge of people moving overseas.....

Miracle of miracles, I just found it!😀👏👍
