Recently received a letter to say i do not qualify for esa. They said i did not have enough NI contrubitions for tax year ending april 2016 and 2017. In march 2016 i had a stroke which left me off work for about 3 mths. I did go back to work but only part time. I did find this hard as also suffer from depression as well. Any advice on what to do next. Thank you Joe

I have been off sick for nearly 6 months and my ssp runs out next month ss well. I also get pip which is under review as my condition has changed in regards to personal care. At the moment i get standard rate care and higher rate mobility but am hoping to now get higher rate care. I have been getting sick lines from my doctor to give to my work. The cab said i will only be able to get credits towards my pension so it is a bit confusing.
