Do I have to pay social security?

Type your messageHello everyone, I'm new here. My husband has been sick for over a year. He has been receiving PIP, ESA and LCWRA since January 2024. He is self-employed and therefore I have a question: he earned less than £6,725, so his tax return came out with a national insurance payment of £106. Do I have to pay national insurance if I have ESA? Or maybe the amount of £106 came out because he has only been receiving PIP, ESA and LCWRA since January 2024?

Could you clarify, is this question about you or your husband?

If your husband did his business end in the 2023-24 tax year?

This concerns my husband. I am writing on his behalf. He did not end his business, he worked little when he felt better. I apologize for the mistakes, but I am writing through a translator.

Did he cease self-employment around November 2023 ?
