    I am just about to come off maternity benefit, I am very sick due to preganancy related problems and won't be able to work.

    I was registered as self employed prior to being on maternity benefit but only from Oct 2009 to Aug 2010.

    Prior to that I was employed PAYE continuously for 5 years.

    Can I apply for illness benefit?

    Many thanks for any help or input here.

    Yes you can. From the above dates it sounds like you have enough contributions for payment.
