People with gaps in their state pension records have just one more month to take advantage of a special offer to buy missing years going as far back as 2006.
As long as you get your payment or a callback request in by 5 April you can still benefit from the deal, but after that you will only be able to fill gaps from the past six years.
And many are facing a backlog with payments in limbo – so what’s going on?
