    This is Venison's post. Probably the easiest route to get her NI credits if she meets the 'caring for you' criteria.

    You can now get national insurance contributions paid for you if you care for someone for 20 hours a week or more, they need to get DLA mid or high rate care, PIP care standard or enhanced rate or AA.
    If you apply and qualify you may be able to get 4 years back credits( to 2012), of course if you already get N.I credits or pay N.I you won't qualify.
    Details are here;
