must have been buying the down trend, but the volume for this looks to be after that date???

Preparing logistics, its the complete opposite of He1's no rig ;)

Not to do with nuclear power though, is it ?

And now its derisk stage, effectively past start date, pump rtelated and results risks ahead, and likely another fundraise especially if a delayed pump results in overrun costs

Well I think it does'nt follow the picture set from flow test, its talking free gas and achieving proven reserves.

Claims the pump will increase pressure so helium concentration too, but I thought a submerged pump lowers pressure at the bottom of the well, so the formation pressure is relatively higher than the bore, increasing flow.. It does'nt actually raise formation prsssure where the gas and fluids interact........ but I may be totally wrong, although I did checked with AI....

Read the flow test results, then todays update, there seems a big change in story,.....

Not sure about some of the claims in todays update,

You might be right about pump delay......

You would think the pump would arrive early, be checked its the correct model, spec, and fittings and maybe tested that it atleast works....even now the arrival date is estimated..... those labour rates are going to sting if the pump becomes an issue

Rememberr the flow testing, did'nt they claim gas in solution, now they say free gas......and how does a pump increase the concentration of gas insolution or even free gas ? the concentration is a ratio to water, not a total volume....looks like they are trying to sell this to market like a used car sales man at helium motors

And they could'nt blame long covid back then

£720, what form is the kick back, is it a payment?

Check this page out, it suggests you can pay class 2 if you are in this special class...

Self-employed people with specific jobs

Some people do not have their Class 2 contributions treated as having been paid, but may want to pay voluntary contributions. These are:

examiners, moderators, invigilators and people who set exam questions

landlords who are eligible to pay Class 2 National Insurance

ministers of religion who do not receive a salary or stipend

people who make investments for themselves or others - but not as a business and without getting a fee or commission

AI states

-----------------------

A person who makes investments for themselves, but not as a business and without a fee, is not typically registered as self-employed for National Insurance purposes and therefore cannot pay voluntary Class 2 contributions through the standard self-assessment system. Instead, they need to register with HMRC specifically to make these voluntary payments outside of Self Assessment.

Steps to Pay Voluntary Class 2 NICs

Check Eligibility and Benefit: Before paying, you should check your National Insurance record and State Pension forecast to determine if paying voluntary contributions will actually increase your pension or benefit entitlement. You can do this via the GOV.UK State Pension forecast service.

Contact HMRC: Since you are not paying Class 2 NICs through Self Assessment, you must contact HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) to register your intention to pay voluntarily. They will set up a payment method for you.

Receive Payment Request/Set up Direct Debit: HMRC will issue you a payment request, usually annually as a lump sum after the end of the tax year, or they can set up a Direct Debit for regular payments. Direct Debit is typically for current year contributions, while lump sums can be used for past years' gaps.

Make Payment: You can pay using one of the following methods once you have your 18-digit payment reference number from HMRC:

Online or telephone banking (Faster Payments or CHAPS).

At your bank or building society.

By cheque through the post.

By following these steps, an individual in this specific circumstance can ensure their National Insurance record is maintained to qualify for the State Pension and certain other contributory benefits (excluding Jobseeker's Allowance).

worth chasing up

Yes, at the time finacial advisers were recommended people only made the basic contribution, not the extra top up....but it means you do'nt get full state pension... But you have your private pension to compensate, and I guess you put the saved cashed into that.... which sounds great at the time..probably is for many.......but if your changing jobs every few years interrupting the private pension, have periods out of work, time out, markets crash, pension scheme fails or gives poor return, or the gov increases the years required again, maybe the safe bet is not contracting out......

I am waiting for my pension forecast to see how many years I was contracted, so I know how it matches the 3 years extra above the required 35 years to get full state pension....

originally I only needed 30 years so many would expect to naturally contribute plenty of extras years for which you get no extra once full is achevied, but thats now become 38 years for me, standard 35 years(was 30),. plus 3 more to get full...

whats interesting is if you can pay class 2 contributions, it just £3.50/wk, about £180/year to claim another year...

I think full pension is ~£230wk, so 230/35= £6.50wk, thats all most doubling your money first year..... for class 3 which most pay its about £16wk so will take nearly 3 years to break even....

So even if you over paid a few years class 2, you simple cant beat that.....

So, anybody succeeded in doing this as the guy on the phone gave me doubts this is correct,,,,

Anybody Paying voluntary Class 2 National Insurance contributions that do not pay through Self Assessment, and not self employed..... ?

Apparently A person who makes investments for themselves, but not as a business and without receiving a fee or commission, is specifically exempt from paying Mandatory Class 2 National Insurance (NICs). They are also not considered self-employed for tax purposes in this context.

https://www.gov.uk/pay-class-2-national-insurance

Any of you guys as investors, not register self employed and not doing self assessment paying class NI contributions to maintain state pension ?

https://www.gov.uk/pay-class-2-national-insurance

Checking with two AI models suggests a person who makes investments - but not as a business and without getting a fee or commission , does not need to complete self assessment or be registered self employed..

Initial HMC said you neded to be both, then just do self assesmet, but its seems neither is needed especiallty if trading in an ISA....

https://www.gov.uk/pay-class-2-national-insurance

I have been looking into this but seem to be getting conflicting info... class 2 voluntary at £3.45/w or £179/y its worth chasing, you get it all back 1st year of pension..... anybody doing this, maybe Horult

Dont contract out, if that option exists now

But was talking to somebody , before her retirement they upped the age from 60 to 66, missing 60 deadline by 2 months , thats a stinger
