Are voluntary contribution calcs higher for some reason?
They are higher than what your contribution would be if you were exempted from NI due to low earnings 🙂
Your voluntary contributions will be £2.95 for each week for which you don't already have either a contribution or a credit.

When i filled out my self assessment it wouldn't let me pay NI contributions saying i have nothing to pay. Now looking at my NI Record it says i need to pay a voluntary contribution to fill my my record for the year, which is fine, but it seems to be almost double what online calcs say my contribution should be for how much i earned.
