Worth mentioning that ESA gives NI credits too, and like JSA can be claimed for the credits even if not eligible for payments.  People have to meet the requirements for that as well - be too ill to work, and if placed in the Work-Related Activity Group, attend appointments and fulfill any other work-related activity requirements.

We haven’t discussed this because OP said they have no health issues In response to a question I posted.

No I know, but they thought JSA was an anomaly with onerous requirements.  I mentioned ESA to show JSA isn't alone in having requirements for a credits-only claim.
