Class 2 National Insurance Contributions

For self-employed people payment of Class 2 NIC will change from April 2011. There will be a break in the monthly direct debit payments of Class 2 NIC following the collection in April 2011. Direct debit payments will then re-start again in August 2011. We would recommend that you check your bank statements to ensure that monthly direct debits stop between May and July 2011 and that more importantly they re-commence in August 2011.
