National Insurance Credits

oilyb

I have just come across National Insurance Credits, I would love some help with this
My husband became unemployed just over a year ago and I was made redundant about 2 years ago so all we have is our savings and my monthly pension as income. We are both not working, neither are we claiming benefits Could some-one please give us any information regarding the National Insurance Credits, how they work, who may be entitled to them etc;

We might be able to give more information if you could tell us your ages/whether you are job seeking/whether you have a disability/children etc.

Is your income/savings too high for claiming benefits?

Have you put your details into a benefits calculator to check? Try this one: https://www.turn2us.org.uk
