Is it possible to continue paying national insurance contributions after I immigrate to the USA on a fiance visa? I've paid 6 years of contributions as I was employed before I went to university.
The only information I've found out is that you will receive the state pension in the USA.

But you can only contribute x number of years I thought, so if someone is this far from being close to getting the full sum, it might not be worth it and using the SS contributions as the top up.
