How long did it take for you to receive your National Insurance number by post from the date you applied? 4 comments Not sure what the wait times are now, but when my partner applied for his in 2019 it took less than a week to come through the post. For most people it takes about 2–4 weeks. I had no idea you had to apply, I thought they just sent you one before your 16th birthday. Mine just arrived before my 16th birthday Leave a ReplyYou must be logged in to post a comment.
