Q&A: I have a query regarding contributory pension. I am 62 years old and working. I paid “stamps” from 1968 to 1972 – 48, 51, 52, 52, five in each respective year. I was rearing children until 2001. I returned to work in 2001 and my recent contributions are: 2001=1; 2002=40; 2003 to date = 52 each year.
