Although her ESA payments have ceased, she still technically has a claim which is paying NI Credits which count towards a full State pension. unfortunately, her continuing to receive these Credits requires her claim to be periodically reassessed to ensure that she still meets the criteria to receive ESA.
Also, if this time she is placed in the Support Group then her ESA(CB) will be reinstated.

Thank you Gordon.
Does that mean despite her ESA contribution based money ended because she had the full year on it, they could re-instate her full payment or just her NI pension contributions if she gets on support group after medical??
Thanks again and much appreciated.

If she is placed back in the WRAG then she will continue to receive NI Credits and if she is put in the Support Group then she will also have her ESA(CB) re-instated for as long as she remains in the SG.
