Hi, Admin, Thank you for the information. I have a follow-up question about this: "an individual does not receive credits of National Insurance for periods of Full Time Education". I understand that this is currently and recently correct. However, I seem to rememer that when I was a university student 1980-1984 that this was not the case - some credits were given. Is that the case? Was this rule/approach different in the past, and if so, when did it change? Also, noting that NI credit was given for employment during university vacation time, can you confirm that there should also be NI credit for periods of unemployment (if signed on) during the same period? Thanks.
