I was unemployed for a long while during Covid. I recently found out that you may be able to get NI Contributions by filling out a form and showing evidence of job hunting (I have all the emails etc).

I have the form already but it looks pretty daunting. Has anyone else had to do this and what is the success rate? How far back can you go?
